Psalm 114 | King James Version
1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language; 2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion. 3 The sea saw it , and fled: Jordan was driven back. 4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs. 5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back? 6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs? 7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob; 8 Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

New International Reader’s Version
1 The people of Israel came out of Egypt. The people of Jacob left a land where a different language was spoken. 2 Then Judah became the holy place where God lived. Israel became the land he ruled over. 3 The Red Sea saw him and parted. The River Jordan stopped flowing. 4 The mountains leaped like rams. The hills skipped like lambs. 5 Red Sea, why did you part? River Jordan, why did you stop flowing? 6 Why did you mountains leap like rams? Why did you hills skip like lambs? 7 Earth, tremble with fear when the Lord comes. Tremble when the God of Jacob is near. 8 He turned the rock into a pool. He turned the hard rock into springs of water.
