Psalms 114

KING JAMES BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;	1 When Israel came forth from Egypt, the house of Jacob from an alien people,
2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.	2 Judah became God's holy place, Israel, God's domain.
3 The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.	3 The sea beheld and fled; the Jordan turned back.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.	4 The mountains skipped like rams; the hills, like lambs of the flock.
5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?	5 Why was it, sea, that you fled? Jordan, that you turned back?
6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?	6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams? You hills, like lambs of the flock?
7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;	7 Tremble, earth, before the Lord, before the God of Jacob,
8 Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.	8 Who turned rock into pools of water, stone into flowing springs.
