¹¹ For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.

¹² For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing; and all the trees of the fields shall clap their hands.

¹¹ Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;

⁷ Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; The world, and they that dwell therein;

⁸ Let the floods clap their hands; Let the hills sing for joy together

⁹ Before Jehovah; for he cometh to judge the earth: He will judge the world with righteousness, And the peoples with equity.

¹ When Israel went forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

⁴ The mountains skipped like rams, The little hills like lambs.

⁵ What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? Thou Jordan, that thou turnest back?

⁶ Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; Ye little hills, like lambs?

⁷ Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob,

⁴⁵ Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.

⁵¹ And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake; and the rocks were rent;

⁵² and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of the saints that had fallen asleep were raised;

⁵³ and coming forth out of the tombs after his resurrection they entered into the holy city and appeared unto many.

⁵⁴ Now the centurion, and they that were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that were done, feared exceedingly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
