6Why do you skip like rams, O mountains, like lambs, O hills? | 6Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs? |
7Tremble, O earth, before the Lord--before the God of Jacob, | 7Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob; |
8who turned a rock into a pool of water, a hard rock into springs of water! | 8Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters. |
