The Power of God in His Deliverance of Israel
1When ⚓Israel went out of Egypt,
The house of Jacob ⚓from a people of strange language,
2⚓Judah became His sanctuary,
And Israel His dominion.
3⚓The sea saw it and fled;
⚓Jordan turned back.
4⚓The mountains skipped like rams,
The little hills like lambs.
5⚓What ails you, O sea, that you fled?
O Jordan, that you turned back?
6O mountains, that you skipped like rams?
O little hills, like lambs?
7Tremble, 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.

1When Israel came out of Egypt,
Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
2Judah became God’s sanctuary,
Israel his dominion.
3The sea looked and fled,
the Jordan turned back;
4the mountains leaped like rams,
the hills like lambs.
5Why was it, sea, that you fled?
Why, Jordan, did you turn back?
6Why, mountains, did you leap like rams,
you hills, like lambs?
7Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8who turned the rock into a pool,
the hard rock into springs of water.
