Psalms
The book of Psalms contains some of the greatest words ever written, sung, and prayed. The psalms are often lyrics of songs for worship. When you read the Psalms, try to imagine the movement of the people at worship in the Temple. Also, remember that the Psalms are poetry. Therefore, they are more to be proclaimed than explained.
When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
PSALMS 114:1
Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
PSALMS 114:2
The sea saw it, and fled Jordan was driven back.
PSALMS 114:3
The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
PSALMS 114:4
What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
PSALMS 114:5
Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?
PSALMS 114:6
Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
PSALMS 114:7
Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
PSALMS 114:8
