A Psalm from the Exodus

1
Alleluia. At the departure of Israel from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:
2
Judea was made his sanctuary; Israel was made his power.
3
The sea looked, and it fled. The Jordan was turned back again.
4
The mountains exulted like rams, and the hills like lambs among the sheep.(a)
5
What happened to you, O sea, so that you fled, and to you, O Jordan, so that you were turned back again?
6
What happened to you, O mountains, so that you exulted like rams, and to you, O hills, so that you exulted like lambs among the sheep?
7
Before the face of the Lord, the earth was moved, before the face of the God of Jacob.
8
He converted the rock into pools of water, and the cliff into fountains of waters.
