NEW JERUSALEMKING JAMES BIBLE
1 Al eluia! When Israel came out of Egypt, the House of Jacob from a people of foreign speech,1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2 Judah became his sanctuary, and Israel his domain.2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3 The sea fled at the sight, the Jordan turned back,3 The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4 the mountains skipped like rams, the hil s like sheep.4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5 Sea, what makes you flee? Jordan, why turn back?5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
6 Why skip like rams, you mountains? Why like sheep, you hills?6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, earth, at the coming of the Lord, at the coming of the God of Jacob,7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8 who turns rock into pool, flint into fountain.8 Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
