Psalm 114:3 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 114.

1 When Israel departed from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,

2 Judah became God’s sanctuary, and Israel His dominion.

3 The sea observed and fled; the Jordan turned back;

4 the mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.

5 Why was it, O sea, that you fled, O Jordan, that you turned back,

6 O mountains, that you skipped like rams, O hills, like lambs?

7 Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

8 who turned the rock into a pool, the flint into a fountain of water!
