1141 When Israel went forth out of Egypt,
the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language; 2 Judah became his sanctuary,
Israel his dominion. 3 The sea saw it, and fled.
The Jordan was driven back. 4 The mountains skipped like rams,
the little hills like lambs. 5 What was it, you sea, that you fled?
You Jordan, that you turned back? 6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams;
you little hills, like lambs? 7 Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob, 8 who turned the rock into a pool of water,
the flint into a spring of waters.
31 Yahweh, how my adversaries have increased!
Many are those who rise up against me. 2 Many there are who say of my soul,
“There is no help for him in God.” Selah. 3 But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me,
my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 I cry to Yahweh with my voice,
and he answers me out of his holy hill. Selah. 5 I laid myself down and slept.
I awakened; for Yahweh sustains me. 6 I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people
who have set themselves against me on every side. 7 Arise, Yahweh!
Save me, my God!
For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone.
You have broken the teeth of the wicked. 8 Salvation belongs to Yahweh.
Your blessing be on your people. Selah.
