Chapter summary (Treasury of Scripture Knowledge, 1880)

1 The miracles wrought by God, when he brought his people out of Egypt, are a just ground of fearing him.

114When Israel went forth out of Egypt,

The house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

2Judah became his sanctuary,

Israel his dominion.

3The sea saw it, and fled;

The Jordan was driven back.

4The mountains skipped like rams,

The little hills like lambs.

5What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest?

Thou Jordan, that thou turnest back?

6Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams;

Ye little hills, like lambs?

7Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord,

At the presence of the God of Jacob,

8Who turned the rock into a pool of water,

The flint into a fountain of waters.
