Psalms

1When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

2Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.

3The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.

4The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.

5What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?

6Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?

7Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

8Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

1thuở nhà Gia-cóp rời bỏ ngoại bang,

2Ít-ra-en nên lãnh địa của Người.

3sông Gio-đan cũng chảy ngược dòng.

4như thể đàn cừu, gò nổng tung tăng.

5Gio-đan hỡi, cớ chi chảy ngược dòng ?

6Này gò nổng, sao tung tăng như thể đàn cừu ?

7trước thánh nhan Chúa Trời nhà Gia-cóp,

8và sỏi đá nên mạch nước dồi dào.
