1890 Darby's Translation of the Holy Scriptures (DBY)

Psalms 114

An exhortation, by the example of the dumb creatures, to fear God in his Church.

 114:1 ¶ When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

 114:2 Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

 114:3 The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;

 114:4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.

 114:5 What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?

 114:6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams? ye hills, like lambs?

 114:7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the +God of Jacob,

 114:8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
