43 the day he displayed his signs(A) in Egypt,
    his wonders(B) in the region of Zoan.
44 He turned their river into blood;(C)
    they could not drink from their streams.
45 He sent swarms of flies(D) that devoured them,
    and frogs(E) that devastated them.
46 He gave their crops to the grasshopper,(F)
    their produce to the locust.(G)
47 He destroyed their vines with hail(H)
    and their sycamore-figs with sleet.
48 He gave over their cattle to the hail,
    their livestock(I) to bolts of lightning.
49 He unleashed against them his hot anger,(J)
    his wrath, indignation and hostility—
    a band of destroying angels.(K)
50 He prepared a path for his anger;
    he did not spare them from death
    but gave them over to the plague.
51 He struck down all the firstborn of Egypt,(L)
    the firstfruits of manhood in the tents of Ham.(M)
52 But he brought his people out like a flock;(N)
    he led them like sheep through the wilderness.
53 He guided them safely, so they were unafraid;
    but the sea engulfed(O) their enemies.(P)
54 And so he brought them to the border of his holy land,
    to the hill country his right hand(Q) had taken.
55 He drove out nations(R) before them
    and allotted their lands to them as an inheritance;(S)
    he settled the tribes of Israel in their homes.

43 How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Zoan.

44 And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that they could not drink.

45 He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them.

46 He gave also their increase unto the caterpiller, and their labour unto the locust.

47 He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycomore trees with frost.

48 He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to hot thunderbolts.

49 He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.

50 He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;

51 And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their strength in the tabernacles of Ham:

52 But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.

53 And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.

54 And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to this mountain, which his right hand had purchased.

55 He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
