113
(114) Alleluia.
1 At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,
2 Judea became his * sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3 The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.
5 What ailed you, O sea, that you fled? and you Jordan, that you were turned back?
6 You⌃ mountains, that you⌃ skipped like rams, and you⌃ hills, like lambs?
7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8 who turned the rock into pools of water, and the † flint into fountains of water.
* 113:2 Or, consecrated thing. † 113:8 Gr. sharp rock.
