1 When Isr’el out of Egypt came,
from people of a foreign tongue,
2 then Judah was God’s holy place;
in Israël was set his throne.
3 The sea beheld and swiftly fled;
the Jordan river turned away.
4 The lofty mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like little lambs at play.
5 O sea, why was it that you fled?
Why, Jordan, did you turn away?
6 Why, mountains, did you skip like rams
you hills, like little lambs at play?
7 Tremble, O earth, before the Lord,
before the face of Jacob’s God,
8 who turned the rock into a pool;
from solid rock the waters flowed.
