Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?

Verse 6 is found in chapter 114 of Psalms. Psalm 114 poetically portrays the exodus through personified images of nature. The sea flees, the Jordan turns back, and the mountains leap before the presence of the God of Jacob. Creation responds to the God who delivers his people. The transformation of the rock into water recalls provision in the wilderness and summarizes an exodus theology in which the Lord rules both waters and land to sustain Israel.

ihr Berge, daß ihr hüpftet wie die Lämmer, ihr Hügel wie die jungen Schafe?
Oh montes, ¿por qué saltasteis como carneros, Y vosotros, collados, como corderitos?
¿Y a ustedes, montañas, que saltan como carneros, y a ustedes, colinas, como corderos?
Qu'avez-vous, montagnes, pour sauter comme des béliers, Et vous, collines, comme des agneaux?
E voi, monti, che saltaste come montoni; E voi, colli, come agnelli?
Montes, que saltastes como carneiros, e outeiros, como cordeiros?
大山哪,你為何踴躍如公羊? 小山哪,你為何跳舞如羔羊?
