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 foreign language,
2Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
2Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
3The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.
4The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.
4The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs.
5What [ailed] you, O sea, that you fled? and you Jordan, that you were turned back?
5What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?
6[You⌃] mountains, that you⌃ skipped like rams, and [you⌃] hills, like lambs?
6You mountains, that you skipped like rams? You little hills, like lambs?
7The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
7Tremble, you 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.
8who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
