1. When the people of Israel left Egypt,when Jacob's descendants left that foreign land,
2. Judah became the Lord's holy people,Israel became his own possession.
3. The Red Sea looked and ran away;the River Jordan stopped flowing.
4. The mountains skipped like goats;the hills jumped about like lambs.
5. What happened, Sea, to make you run away?And you, O Jordan, why did you stop flowing?
