1 When Isr'el out of Egypt went,and did his dwelling change,When Jacob's house went out from thosethat were of language strange,
2 He Judah did his sanctuary,his kingdom Isr'el make:
3 The sea it saw, and quickly fled,Jordan was driven back.
4 Like rams the mountains, and like lambsthe hills skipp'd to and fro.
5 O sea, why fledd'st thou? Jordan, backwhy wast thou driven so?
6 Ye mountains great, wherefore was itthat ye did skip like rams?And wherefore was it, little hills,that ye did leap like lambs?
7 O at the presence of the Lord,earth, tremble thou for fear,While as the presence of the Godof Jacob doth appear:
8 Who from the hard and stony rockdid standing water bring;And by his pow'r did turn the flintinto a water-spring.
