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.

1 CUANDO salió Israel de Egipto, La casa de Jacob del pueblo bárbaro,

2 Judá fué su consagrada heredad, Israel su señorío.

3 La mar vió, y huyó; El Jordán se volvió atrás.

4 Los montes saltaron como carneros: Los collados como corderitos.

5 ¿Qué tuviste, oh mar, que huiste? ¿Y tú, oh Jordán, que te volviste atrás?

6 Oh montes, ¿por qué saltasteis como carneros, Y vosotros, collados, como corderitos?

7 A la presencia del Señor tiembla la tierra, A la presencia del Dios de Jacob;

8 El cual tornó la peña en estanque de aguas, Y en fuente de aguas la roca.
