​¹When Israel went out from Egypt,
the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
²Judah became God’s sanctuary,
Israel his dominion.
³The sea looked and fled;
Jordan turned back.
⁴The mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like lambs.
⁵Why is it, O sea, that you flee?
O Jordan, that you turn back?
⁶O mountains, that you skip like rams?
O hills, like lambs?
⁷Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the LORD,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
⁸who turns the rock into a pool of water,
the flint into a spring of water.
