Psalm 78:12-72
New King James Version
12 (A)Marvelous things He did in the sight of their fathers,
In the land of Egypt, (B)in the field of Zoan.
13 (C)He divided the sea and caused them to pass through;
And (D)He made the waters stand up like a heap.
14 (E)In the daytime also He led them with the cloud,
And all the night with a light of fire.
15 (F)He split the rocks in the wilderness,
And gave them drink in abundance like the depths.
16 He also brought (G)streams out of the rock,
And caused waters to run down like rivers.
17 But they sinned even more against Him
By (H)rebelling against the Most High in the wilderness.
18 And (I)they tested God in their heart
By asking for the food of their fancy.
19 (J)Yes, they spoke against God:
They said, “Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?
20 (K)Behold, He struck the rock,
So that the waters gushed out,
And the streams overflowed.
Can He give bread also?
Can He provide meat for His people?”
21 Therefore the Lord heard this and (L)was furious;
So a fire was kindled against Jacob,
And anger also came up against Israel,
22 Because they (M)did not believe in God,
And did not trust in His salvation.
23 Yet He had commanded the clouds above,
(N)And opened the doors of heaven,
24 (O)Had rained down manna on them to eat,
And given them of the [a]bread of (P)heaven.
25 Men ate angels’ food;
He sent them food to [b]the full.
26 (Q)He caused an east wind to blow in the heavens;
And by His power He brought in the south wind.
27 He also rained meat on them like the dust,
Feathered fowl like the sand of the seas;
28 And He let them fall in the midst of their camp,
All around their dwellings.
29 (R)So they ate and were well filled,
For He gave them their own desire.
30 They were not [c]deprived of their craving;
But (S)while their food was still in their mouths,
31 The wrath of God came against them,
And slew the stoutest of them,
And struck down the choice men of Israel.
32 In spite of this (T)they still sinned,
And (U)did not believe in His wondrous works.
33 (V)Therefore their days He consumed in futility,
And their years in fear.
34 (W)When He slew them, then they sought Him;
And they returned and sought earnestly for God.
35 Then they remembered that (X)God was their rock,
And the Most High God (Y)their Redeemer.
36 Nevertheless they (Z)flattered Him with their mouth,
And they lied to Him with their tongue;
37 For their heart was not steadfast with Him,
Nor were they faithful in His covenant.
38 (AA)But He, being full of (AB)compassion, forgave their iniquity,
And did not destroy them.
Yes, many a time (AC)He turned His anger away,
And (AD)did not stir up all His wrath;
39 For (AE)He remembered (AF)that they were but flesh,
(AG)A breath that passes away and does not come again.
40 How often they (AH)provoked[d] Him in the wilderness,
And grieved Him in the desert!
41 Yes, (AI)again and again they tempted God,
And limited the Holy One of Israel.
42 They did not remember His [e]power:
The day when He redeemed them from the enemy,
43 When He worked His signs in Egypt,
And His wonders in the field of Zoan;
44 (AJ)Turned their rivers into blood,
And their streams, that they could not drink.
45 (AK)He sent swarms of flies among them, which devoured them,
And (AL)frogs, which destroyed them.
46 He also gave their crops to the caterpillar,
And their labor to the (AM)locust.
47 (AN)He destroyed their vines with hail,
And their sycamore trees with frost.
48 He also gave up their (AO)cattle to the hail,
And their flocks to fiery [f]lightning.
49 He cast on them the fierceness of His anger,
Wrath, indignation, and trouble,
By sending angels of destruction among them.
50 He made a path for His anger;
He did not spare their soul from death,
But gave [g]their life over to the plague,
51 And destroyed all the (AP)firstborn in Egypt,
The first of their strength in the tents of Ham.
52 But He (AQ)made His own people go forth like sheep,
And guided them in the wilderness like a flock;
53 And He (AR)led them on safely, so that they did not fear;
But the sea (AS)overwhelmed their enemies.
54 And He brought them to His (AT)holy border,
This mountain (AU)which His right hand had acquired.
55 (AV)He also drove out the nations before them,
(AW)Allotted them an inheritance by [h]survey,
And made the tribes of Israel dwell in their tents.
56 (AX)Yet they tested and provoked the Most High God,
And did not keep His testimonies,
57 But (AY)turned back and acted unfaithfully like their fathers;
They were turned aside (AZ)like a deceitful bow.
58 (BA)For they provoked Him to anger with their (BB)high places,
And moved Him to jealousy with their carved images.
59 When God heard this, He was furious,
And greatly abhorred Israel,
60 (BC)So that He forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh,
The tent He had placed among men,
61 (BD)And delivered His strength into captivity,
And His glory into the enemy’s hand.
62 (BE)He also gave His people over to the sword,
And was furious with His inheritance.
63 The fire consumed their young men,
And (BF)their maidens were not given in marriage.
64 (BG)Their priests fell by the sword,
And (BH)their widows made no lamentation.
65 Then the Lord awoke as from sleep,
(BI)Like a mighty man who shouts because of wine.
66 And (BJ)He beat back His enemies;
He put them to a perpetual reproach.
67 Moreover He rejected the tent of Joseph,
And did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,
68 But chose the tribe of Judah,
Mount Zion (BK)which He loved.
69 And He built His (BL)sanctuary like the heights,
Like the earth which He has established forever.
70 (BM)He also chose David His servant,
And took him from the sheepfolds;
71 From following (BN)the ewes that had young He brought him,
(BO)To shepherd Jacob His people,
And Israel His inheritance.
72 So he shepherded them according to the (BP)integrity of his heart,
And guided them by the skillfulness of his hands.

New International Version
Psalm 78:12-72
New International Version
12 He did miracles(A) in the sight of their ancestors
in the land of Egypt,(B) in the region of Zoan.(C)
13 He divided the sea(D) and led them through;
he made the water stand up like a wall.(E)
14 He guided them with the cloud by day
and with light from the fire all night.(F)
15 He split the rocks(G) in the wilderness
and gave them water as abundant as the seas;
16 he brought streams out of a rocky crag
and made water flow down like rivers.
17 But they continued to sin(H) against him,
rebelling in the wilderness against the Most High.
18 They willfully put God to the test(I)
by demanding the food they craved.(J)
19 They spoke against God;(K)
they said, “Can God really
spread a table in the wilderness?
20 True, he struck the rock,
and water gushed out,(L)
streams flowed abundantly,
but can he also give us bread?
Can he supply meat(M) for his people?”
21 When the Lord heard them, he was furious;
his fire broke out(N) against Jacob,
and his wrath rose against Israel,
22 for they did not believe in God
or trust(O) in his deliverance.
23 Yet he gave a command to the skies above
and opened the doors of the heavens;(P)
24 he rained down manna(Q) for the people to eat,
he gave them the grain of heaven.
25 Human beings ate the bread of angels;
he sent them all the food they could eat.
26 He let loose the east wind(R) from the heavens
and by his power made the south wind blow.
27 He rained meat down on them like dust,
birds(S) like sand on the seashore.
28 He made them come down inside their camp,
all around their tents.
29 They ate till they were gorged—(T)
he had given them what they craved.
30 But before they turned from what they craved,
even while the food was still in their mouths,(U)
31 God’s anger rose against them;
he put to death the sturdiest(V) among them,
cutting down the young men of Israel.
32 In spite of all this, they kept on sinning;(W)
in spite of his wonders,(X) they did not believe.(Y)
33 So he ended their days in futility(Z)
and their years in terror.
34 Whenever God slew them, they would seek(AA) him;
they eagerly turned to him again.
35 They remembered that God was their Rock,(AB)
that God Most High was their Redeemer.(AC)
36 But then they would flatter him with their mouths,(AD)
lying to him with their tongues;
37 their hearts were not loyal(AE) to him,
they were not faithful to his covenant.
38 Yet he was merciful;(AF)
he forgave(AG) their iniquities(AH)
and did not destroy them.
Time after time he restrained his anger(AI)
and did not stir up his full wrath.
39 He remembered that they were but flesh,(AJ)
a passing breeze(AK) that does not return.
40 How often they rebelled(AL) against him in the wilderness(AM)
and grieved him(AN) in the wasteland!
41 Again and again they put God to the test;(AO)
they vexed the Holy One of Israel.(AP)
42 They did not remember(AQ) his power—
the day he redeemed them from the oppressor,(AR)
43 the day he displayed his signs(AS) in Egypt,
his wonders(AT) in the region of Zoan.
44 He turned their river into blood;(AU)
they could not drink from their streams.
45 He sent swarms of flies(AV) that devoured them,
and frogs(AW) that devastated them.
46 He gave their crops to the grasshopper,(AX)
their produce to the locust.(AY)
47 He destroyed their vines with hail(AZ)
and their sycamore-figs with sleet.
48 He gave over their cattle to the hail,
their livestock(BA) to bolts of lightning.
49 He unleashed against them his hot anger,(BB)
his wrath, indignation and hostility—
a band of destroying angels.(BC)
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,(BD)
the firstfruits of manhood in the tents of Ham.(BE)
52 But he brought his people out like a flock;(BF)
he led them like sheep through the wilderness.
53 He guided them safely, so they were unafraid;
but the sea engulfed(BG) their enemies.(BH)
54 And so he brought them to the border of his holy land,
to the hill country his right hand(BI) had taken.
55 He drove out nations(BJ) before them
and allotted their lands to them as an inheritance;(BK)
he settled the tribes of Israel in their homes.
56 But they put God to the test
and rebelled against the Most High;
they did not keep his statutes.
57 Like their ancestors(BL) they were disloyal and faithless,
as unreliable as a faulty bow.(BM)
58 They angered him(BN) with their high places;(BO)
they aroused his jealousy with their idols.(BP)
59 When God heard(BQ) them, he was furious;(BR)
he rejected Israel(BS) completely.
60 He abandoned the tabernacle of Shiloh,(BT)
the tent he had set up among humans.(BU)
61 He sent the ark of his might(BV) into captivity,(BW)
his splendor into the hands of the enemy.
62 He gave his people over to the sword;(BX)
he was furious with his inheritance.(BY)
63 Fire consumed(BZ) their young men,
and their young women had no wedding songs;(CA)
64 their priests were put to the sword,(CB)
and their widows could not weep.
65 Then the Lord awoke as from sleep,(CC)
as a warrior wakes from the stupor of wine.
66 He beat back his enemies;
he put them to everlasting shame.(CD)
67 Then he rejected the tents of Joseph,
he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim;(CE)
68 but he chose the tribe of Judah,(CF)
Mount Zion,(CG) which he loved.
69 He built his sanctuary(CH) like the heights,
like the earth that he established forever.
70 He chose David(CI) his servant
and took him from the sheep pens;
71 from tending the sheep(CJ) he brought him
to be the shepherd(CK) of his people Jacob,
of Israel his inheritance.
72 And David shepherded them with integrity of heart;(CL)
with skillful hands he led them.

So the waters that went down (F)into the Sea of the Arabah, (G)the Salt Sea, failed, and were cut off; and the people crossed over opposite Jericho. 17 Then the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan; (H)and all Israel crossed over on dry ground, until all the people had crossed completely over the Jordan.

27 They (A)performed His signs among them,
And wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness, and made it dark;
And they did not rebel against His word.
29 (B)He turned their waters into blood,
And killed their fish.
30 (C)Their land abounded with frogs,
Even in the chambers of their kings.
31 (D)He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,
And lice in all their territory.
32 (E)He gave them hail for rain,
And flaming fire in their land.
33 (F)He struck their vines also, and their fig trees,
And splintered the trees of their territory.
34 (G)He spoke, and locusts came,
Young locusts without number,
35 And ate up all the vegetation in their land,
And devoured the fruit of their ground.
36 (H)He also [a]destroyed all the firstborn in their land,
(I)The first of all their strength.
37 (J)He also brought them out with silver and gold,
And there was none feeble among His tribes.
38 (K)Egypt was glad when they departed,
For the fear of them had fallen upon them.
39 (L)He spread a cloud for a covering,
And fire to give light in the night.
40 (M)The people asked, and He brought quail,
And (N)satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41 (O)He opened the rock, and water gushed out;
It ran in the dry places like a river.
42 For He remembered (P)His holy promise,
And Abraham His servant.
43 He brought out His people with joy,
His chosen ones with [b]gladness.
44 (Q)He gave them the lands of the [c]Gentiles,
And they inherited the labor of the nations,
45 (R)That they might observe His statutes
And keep His laws.
[d]Praise the Lord!
