1(114) Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,
1When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
2Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
3The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.
4The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5What [ailed] you, O sea, that you fled? and you Jordan, that you were turned back?
5What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
6[You⌃] mountains, that you⌃ skipped like rams, and [you⌃] hills, like lambs?
6Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?
7The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
7Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8who turned the rock into pools of water, and the flint into fountains of water.
8Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
