God’s Deliverance of Israel from Egypt.

1 When Israel went forth from Egypt,
 The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
2 Judah became His sanctuary,
 Israel, His dominion.
3 The sea looked and fled;
 The Jordan turned back.
4 The mountains skipped like rams,
 The hills, like lambs.
5 What ails you, O sea, that you flee?
 O Jordan, that you turn back?
6 O mountains, that you skip like rams?
 O hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, O earth, before the Lord,
 Before the God of Jacob,
8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water,
 The flint into a fountain of water.
