Psalms 114 תְּהִלִּים
Hebrew · transliteration · JPS 1917
1בְּצֵ֣את יִ֭שְׂרָאֵל מִמִּצְרָ֑יִם בֵּ֥ית יַ֝עֲקֹ֗ב מֵעַ֥ם לֹעֵֽז׃
betzet yisra'el mimmitzrayim bet ya'akov me'am lo'ez
When Israel came forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2הָיְתָ֣ה יְהוּדָ֣ה לְקָדְשׁ֑וֹ יִ֝שְׂרָאֵ֗ל מַמְשְׁלוֹתָֽיו׃
hayta yehuda lekadsho yisra'el mamshelotav
Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His dominion.
3הַיָּ֣ם רָ֭אָה וַיָּנֹ֑ס הַ֝יַּרְדֵּ֗ן יִסֹּ֥ב לְאָחֽוֹר׃
hayyam ra'a vayyanos hayyarden yissov le'achor
The sea saw it, and fled; The Jordan turned backward.
4הֶֽ֭הָרִים רָקְד֣וּ כְאֵילִ֑ים גְּ֝בָע֗וֹת כִּבְנֵי־צֹֽאן׃
heharim rakdu khe'elim geva'ot kivne-tzon
The mountains skipped like rams, The hills like young sheep.
5מַה־לְּךָ֣ הַ֭יָּם כִּ֣י תָנ֑וּס הַ֝יַּרְדֵּ֗ן תִּסֹּ֥ב לְאָחֽוֹר׃
ma-lekha hayyam ki tanus hayyarden tissov le'achor
What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? Thou Jordan, that thou turnest backward?
6הֶֽ֭הָרִים תִּרְקְד֣וּ כְאֵילִ֑ים גְּ֝בָע֗וֹת כִּבְנֵי־צֹֽאן׃
heharim tirkedu khe'elim geva'ot kivne-tzon
Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; Ye hills, like young sheep?
7מִלִּפְנֵ֣י אָ֭דוֹן ח֣וּלִי אָ֑רֶץ מִ֝לִּפְנֵ֗י אֱל֣וֹהַּ יַעֲקֹֽב׃
millifne adon chuli aretz millifne eloah ya'akov
Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob;
8הַהֹפְכִ֣י הַצּ֣וּר אֲגַם־מָ֑יִם חַ֝לָּמִ֗ישׁ לְמַעְיְנוֹ־מָֽיִם׃
hahofkhi hatzur agam-mayim challamish lema'yeno-mayim
Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of waters.
