1 When the people of Israel left Egypt,when Jacob's descendants left that foreign land,
2 Judah became the Lord's holy people,Israel became his own possession.
3 The Red Sea looked and ran away;the River Jordan stopped flowing.
4 The mountains skipped like goats;the hills jumped about like lambs.
5 What happened, Sea, to make you run away?And you, O Jordan, why did you stop flowing?
