Psalms: Psalms Chapter 114
Psalms Chapter 114
When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of (a) strange language;
(a) Or, barbarous.
Judah was his (b) sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
(b) The whole people were witnesses to his holy majesty in adopting them, and of his mighty power in delivering them.
The (c) mountains skipped like rams, [and] the little hills like lambs.
(c) Seeing that these dead creatures felt God's power and after a sort saw it, much more his people ought to consider it, and glorify him for the same.
Tremble, thou (d) earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
(d) Ought then his people to be insensible when they see his power and majesty?
Which (e) turned the rock [into] a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
(e) That is, miraculously caused water to come out of the rock in great abundance, (Exo 17:6).
