Psalms:114

1When Israel left Egypt, when the family of Jacob left a foreign nation behind, 2Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his kingdom. 3The sea looked and fled; the Jordan River turned back. 4The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs. 5Why do you flee, O sea? Why do you turn back, O Jordan River? 6Why do you skip like rams, O mountains, like lambs, O hills? 7Tremble, O earth, before the Lord— before the God of Jacob, 8who turned a rock into a pool of water, a hard rock into springs of water.
