| # Chapter 114
#### 1 | When Israel came out of Egypt, the children of Jacob from a people whose language was strange to them;
#### 2 | Judah became his holy place, and Israel his kingdom.
#### 3 | The sea saw it, and went in flight; Jordan was turned back.
#### 4 | The mountains were jumping like goats, and the little hills like lambs.
#### 5 | What was wrong with you, O sea, that you went in flight? O Jordan, that you were turned back?
#### 6 | You mountains, why were you jumping like goats, and you little hills like lambs?
#### 7 | Be troubled, O earth, before the Lord, before the God of Jacob;
#### 8 | Who made the rock into a water-spring, and the hard stone into a fountain.
