God Takes Israel from Egypt

114 Israel came out of Egypt. The house of Jacob came from a people who spoke a strange language. Then Judah became His holy place, and Israel became the place of His rule.

The sea looked and ran away. The Jordan turned back. The mountains jumped like sheep, the hills like lambs. Why did you try to get away, O sea? Why did you turn back, O Jordan? O mountains, why did you jump like sheep? O hills, why did you jump like lambs?

Shake in fear before the Lord, O earth, before the God of Jacob. He changed the rock into a pool of water. He made water flow out of hard rock.
