1Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, Of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,

2Judea became his sanctuary, And Israel his dominion.

— Psalms 113:3 —

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

5What ailed thee, O sea, that thou fleddest? And thou Jordan, that thou wast turned back?
