Psalms 114
1Alleluia. I have loved: therefore, the Lord will heed the voice of my prayer.
2For he has inclined his ear to me. And in my days, I will call upon him.
3The sorrows of death have surrounded me, and the perils of Hell have found me. I have found tribulation and sorrow.
4And so, I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, free my soul.
5Merciful is the Lord, and just. And our God is compassionate.
6The Lord is the keeper of little ones. I was humbled, and he freed me.
7Turn again, my soul, to your rest. For the Lord has done good to you.
8For he has rescued my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from slipping.
9I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
1When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
6Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?
7Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
