Psalm 114 - Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read Version

¹ The people of Israel escaped from Egypt. Yes, Jacob’s descendants left that foreign country.

² Then Judah became God’s special people, and Israel became his kingdom.

³ The Red Sea saw this and ran away. The Jordan River turned and ran.

⁴ The mountains danced like rams. The hills danced like lambs.

⁵ Red Sea, why did you run away? Jordan River, why did you turn and run away?

⁶ Mountains, why did you dance like rams? Hills, why did you dance like lambs?

⁷ The earth shook in front of the Lord, the God of Jacob.

⁸ He is the one who caused water to flow from a rock. He made a spring of water flow from that hard rock.
