1 When Israel came out of Egypt, the children of Jacob from a people whose language was strange to them;2 Judah became his holy place, and Israel his kingdom.3 The sea saw it, and went in flight; Jordan was turned back.4 The mountains were jumping like goats, and the little hills like lambs.5 What was wrong with you, O sea, that you went in flight? O Jordan, that you were turned back?6 You mountains, why were you jumping like goats, and you little hills like lambs?7 Be troubled, O earth, before the Lord, before the God of Jacob;8 Who made the rock into a water-spring, and the hard stone into a fountain.

1 以色列出了埃及， 雅各家离开了说外国语言的人民的时候， 2 犹大就成了主的圣所， 以色列成了他的王国。 3 大海看见就奔逃， 约旦河也倒流。 4 大山跳跃像公羊， 小山蹦跳像小羊。 5 大海啊！ 你为什么奔逃？约旦河啊！ 你为什么倒流？ 6 大山啊！ 你们为什么跳跃像公羊？小山啊！ 你们为什么蹦跳像小羊？ 7 大地啊！ 你在主的面前， 在雅各的 神面前要战抖。 8 他使磐石变为水池， 使坚石变为水泉。
