Psalm 114

Please turn on subtitles, they are shown in Hebrew & English

  1. When Israel came out of Egypt:
    the house of Jacob from among
    the people of an alien tongue,
  2. Judah became the Lord's temple:
    and Israel became God's kingdom.
  3. The sea fled at the sight of it:
    and Jordan turned back in its course.
  4. The mountains skipped like rams:
    and the hills like yearling sheep.
  5. Why was it that you fled O sea:
    and you Jordan that you turned back.
  6. you mountains that you skipped like rams:
    and you hills like yearling sheep?
  7. Tremble O earth at the presence of the Lord:
    at the presence of the God of Jacob,
  8. who turned the hard rock into a pool of water:
    and the flint-stone into a gushing spring.

Collect

Almighty God,
through your Son Jesus Christ you overcame death
and opened for us the gate of everlasting life;
grant us to die daily to sin,
that we may evermore live with him in the joy of his resurrection;
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God now and for ever.
Amen.
