1When Israel came out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
2Judah became God's sanctuary 1, Israel his dominion 2.
3The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back;
4the mountains skipped like rams 3, the hills like lambs.
5Why was it, O sea, that you fled, O Jordan, that you turned back,
6you mountains, that you skipped like rams, you hills, like lambs?
7Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8who turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water.
