Psalm 114 | New International Version

1 When Israel came out of Egypt, Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,

2 Judah became God’s sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3 The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back;

4 the mountains leaped like rams, the hills like lambs.

5 Why was it, sea, that you fled? Why, Jordan, did you turn back?

6 Why, mountains, did you leap like rams, you hills, like lambs?

7 Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

8 who turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water.

Ricordo delle liberazioni del passato

1 Quando Israele uscì dall’Egitto e la casa di Giacobbe da un popolo di lingua straniera,

2 Giuda divenne il santuario del Signore e Israele il suo dominio.

3 Il mare lo vide e fuggì, il Giordano si volse indietro.

4 I monti saltellarono come montoni, i colli come agnelli.

5 Che avevi tu, o mare, per fuggire? E tu, Giordano, perché tornasti indietro?

6 E voi, monti, perché saltellaste come montoni e voi, colli, come agnelli?

7 Trema, o terra, alla presenza del Signore, alla presenza del Dio di Giacobbe,

8 che mutò la roccia in lago, il macigno in sorgente d’acqua.
