Salmene 114,7

5 Hva er det med deg, hav, at du flykter?
Jordan, at du snur tilbake?

6 Fjell, at dere hopper som værer?
Haugene, som unge lam?

Skjelv, jord, for Herrens åsyn,
For Jakobs Guds åsyn,

8 Han som forvandlet klippen til en vannpytt,
Flint til en rennende kilde.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
