Psalms 114:3
“The sea looked and fled; Jordan turned back.”
The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs. All creation participates in joyful response to God's liberation of Israel: mountains 'skip' and hills 'leap' like exuberant animals. The imagery of wild, joyful movement suggests cosmic celebration. This verse portrays creation's exultation at God's redemptive work.
