Psalms 114

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 When Israel came forth from Egypt, the house of Jacob from an alien people,	1 Alleluja. Dilexi, quoniam exaudiet Dominus vocem orationis meæ.
2 Judah became God's holy place, Israel, God's domain.	2 Quia inclinavit aurem suam mihi, et in diebus meis invocabo.
3 The sea beheld and fled; the Jordan turned back.	3 Circumdederunt me dolores mortis ; et pericula inferni invenerunt me. Tribulationem et dolorem inveni,
4 The mountains skipped like rams; the hills, like lambs of the flock.	4 et nomen Domini invocavi : o Domine, libera animam meam.
5 Why was it, sea, that you fled? Jordan, that you turned back?	5 Misericors Dominus et justus, et Deus noster miseretur.
6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams? You hills, like lambs of the flock?	6 Custodiens parvulos Dominus ; humiliatus sum, et liberavit me.
7 Tremble, earth, before the Lord, before the God of Jacob,	7 Convertere, anima mea, in requiem tuam, quia Dominus benefecit tibi :
8 Who turned rock into pools of water, stone into flowing springs.	8 quia eripuit animam meam de morte, oculos meos a lacrimis, pedes meos a lapsu.
	9 Placebo Domino in regione vivorum.
