Psalm 114

God’s Deliverance of Israel

When Israel came out of Egypt—

the house of Jacob from a people

who spoke a foreign language v

Judah became His sanctuary,

Israel, His dominion. w

The sea looked and fled; x

the Jordan turned back. y

The mountains skipped like rams,

the hills, like lambs. z

Why was it, sea, that you fled?

Jordan, that you turned back? a

Mountains, that you skipped like rams?

Hills, like lambs? b

Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord,

at the presence of the God of Jacob, c

who turned the rock into a pool of water,

the flint into a spring of water. d

About The Holman Christian Standard Bible

The complete Holman Christian Standard Bible® is now available for the first time ever! More than fifteen years in the making, crafted by the shared expertise of nearly a hundred conservative scholars and English stylists, the Holman CSB® sets the standard in painstaking biblical accuracy and pure literary form.

Accurate, yet highly readable, it's a translation committed to leaving both the grace and gravity of the original languages intact while carefully creating a smooth flow of wording for the reader.

Stylistically, this inaugural edition contributes to the clarity of the written Word, arranging the poetic portions of the Scripture into complete lines of thought, and revering God's presence on each page by capitalizing all the pronouns that refer to Him.
