| 1 | When Israel came forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language, |
| 2 | Judah became [God’s] sanctuary (the Holy Place of His habitation), and Israel His dominion. |
| 3 | The [Red] Sea looked and fled; the Jordan [River] was turned back. |
| 4 | The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs. |
| 5 | What ails you, O [Red] Sea, that you flee? O Jordan, that you turn back? |
| 6 | You mountains, that you skip like rams, and you little hills, like lambs? |
| 7 | Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob, |
| 8 | Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters. |
