Psalms 114

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 114 of 150

1 In the going out of Israel from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people speaking a strange language

2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His dominion.

3 The sea saw and fled; the Jordan turned back;

4 the mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like a flock!
