1. Alleluia.When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:
2. Judea made his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3. The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
4. The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like the lambs of the flock.
5. What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou didst flee: and thou, O Jordan, that thou wast turned back?
6. Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye hills, like lambs of the flock?
