¹When Israel went out from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign speech,

²Judah became his sacred place, Israel his dominion.

³The sea saw it and fled; the Jordan turned backward.

⁴The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like the young of the flock.

⁵What is it to you, sea, that you flee? Jordan, that you turn backward?

⁶Mountains, that you skip like rams? Hills, like the young of the flock?

⁷Writhe, land, at the face of the lord, at the face of the God of Jacob,

⁸who turns the rock into a pool of waters, the flint into a spring of waters.
