Psalm 105:23-36

Christian Standard Bible

²³ Then Israel went to Egypt;
Jacob lived as an alien in the land of Ham.^[a](A)
24 The Lord^[b] made his people very fruitful;
he made them more numerous than their foes,^(B)
25 whose hearts he turned to hate his people
and to deal deceptively with his servants.^(C)
26 He sent Moses his servant,
and Aaron, whom he had chosen.^(D)
27 They performed his miraculous signs among them
and wonders in the land of Ham.^(E)
28 He sent darkness, and it became dark—
for did they not defy his commands?^(F)
29 He turned their water into blood
and caused their fish to die.^(G)
30 Their land was overrun with frogs,
even in their royal chambers.^(H)
31 He spoke, and insects came^(I)—
gnats throughout their country.^(J)
32 He gave them hail for rain,
and lightning throughout their land.^(K)
33 He struck their vines and fig trees
and shattered the trees of their territory.^(L)
34 He spoke, and locusts came—
young locusts without number.
³⁵ They devoured all the vegetation in their land
and consumed the produce of their land.^(M)
36 He struck all the firstborn in their land,
all their first progeny.^(N)
