1 In the going forth of Israel from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people speaking strangely,2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His dominion.3 The sea saw [Him] and fled; the Jordan turned to the back.4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like sons of the flock.5 What [was it] to you, O sea, that you fled, O Jordan, [that] you turned back,6 O mountains, [that] you⁺ skipped like rams, O hills, like sons of the flock?7 Tremble before the face of the Lord, O earth, before the face of the God of Jacob—8 turning the rock [into] a pool of waters, the flint into a spring of waters!
