| 1When Israel went forth from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language, | 1When the Israelites escaped from Egypt— when the family of Jacob left that foreign land— |
| 2Judah became His sanctuary, Israel, His dominion. | 2the land of Judah became God’s sanctuary, and Israel became his kingdom. |
| 3The sea looked and fled; The Jordan turned back. | 3The Red Sea saw them coming and hurried out of their way! The water of the Jordan River turned away. |
| 4The mountains skipped like rams, The hills, like lambs. | 4The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs! |
| 5What ails you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, that you turn back? | 5What’s wrong, Red Sea, that made you hurry out of their way? What happened, Jordan River, that you turned away? |
| 6O mountains, that you skip like rams? O hills, like lambs? | 6Why, mountains, did you skip like rams? Why, hills, like lambs? |
| 7Tremble, O earth, before the Lord, Before the God of Jacob, | 7Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob. |
| 8Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of water. | 8He turned the rock into a pool of water; yes, a spring of water flowed from solid rock. |
