Psalms 114 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

The Lord works wonders

1. God brought his peopleout of Egypt, that landwith a strange language.

2. He made Judah his holy placeand ruled over Israel.

3. When the sea looked at God,it ran away,and the River Jordanflowed upstream.

4. The mountains and the hillsskipped around like goats.

5. Ask the sea why it ran awayor ask the Jordanwhy it flowed upstream.

6. Ask the mountains and the hillswhy they skipped like goats!

7. Earth, you will tremble,when the Lord God of Jacobcomes near,

8. because he turns solid rockinto flowing streamsand pools of water.
