114
📚When Israel went out of Egypt,the house of Jacob from
a people of foreign language,
2 📚Judah was God’s sanctuary,
and Israel his dominion.
114:2 The nation of Israel became God’s home on earth, the people of His kingdom – Ex 19:5-6; 25:8; 29:46. God is so exalted He must stoop to see the heavens and earth (Ps 113:5-6), but He is so loving that He comes to dwell with a sinful, stubborn nation.⚜
3 📚The sea saw it and fled;
the Jordan turned back.
114:3 Ex 14:21-22; 15:8; Josh 3:14-17. God’s power was revealed in His control of natures elements (compare Matt 8:23-27).⚜
4 📚The mountains skipped
like rams,
and the little hills
like lambs.
5 📚What ailed you,
O sea, that you fled?
O Jordan, that you turned
back?
6 📚O mountains, that you
skipped like rams?
O little hills, like lambs?
7 📚Tremble, you earth, at the presence
of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 📚Who turned the rock into
a pool of water,
the flint into a spring
of waters.
