Tremble at the Presence of the Lord
1When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
6Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?
7Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

A Psalm of Exodus
1 When Israel went forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language;
2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3 The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs.
5 What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?
6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams; you little hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
A Psalm of Exodus
1 When Israel departed from Egypt,
the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
2 Judah became God’s sanctuary,
and Israel His dominion.
3 The sea observed and fled;
the Jordan turned back;
4 the mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like lambs.
5 Why was it, O sea, that you fled,
O Jordan, that you turned back,
6 O mountains, that you skipped like rams,
O hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 who turned the rock into a pool,
the flint into a fountain of water!
Tremble at the Presence of the Lord
1In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,
2Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3The sea hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth backward.
4The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.
5What -- to thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, thou turnest back!
6O mountains, ye skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!
7From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,
8He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
