¹ God brought his people out of Egypt, that land with a strange language. ² He made Judah his holy place and ruled over Israel. ³ When the sea looked at God, it ran away, and the Jordan River flowed upstream. ⁴ The mountains and the hills skipped around like goats. ⁵ Ask the sea why it ran away or ask the Jordan why it flowed upstream. ⁶ Ask the mountains and the hills why they skipped like goats! ⁷ Earth, you will tremble, when the Lord God of Jacob comes near, ⁸ because he turns solid rock into flowing streams and pools of water.
