Psalms 114 YLT
Summary: A brief, vivid exodus psalm personifying nature's reaction to Israel's deliverance: "When Israel went out of Egypt... the sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back" (v. 1, 3). The mountains and hills are pictured leaping "like rams... like lambs" (v. 4), and the psalmist taunts these natural features directly — "What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest?" (v. 5) — before answering that it was the presence of "the God of Jacob" who turns rock into a pool of water (v. 7-8).
1In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,
2Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3The sea hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth backward.
4The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.
5What--to thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, thou turnest back!
6O mountains, ye skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!
7From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,
8He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
