26 (A)He sent Moses His servant,
And Aaron whom He had chosen.
27 They (B)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 (C)He turned their waters into blood,
And killed their fish.
30 (D)Their land abounded with frogs,
Even in the chambers of their kings.
31 (E)He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,
And lice in all their territory.
32 (F)He gave them hail for rain,
And flaming fire in their land.
33 (G)He struck their vines also, and their fig trees,
And splintered the trees of their territory.
34 (H)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 (I)He also [a]destroyed all the firstborn in their land,
(J)The first of all their strength.

37 (K)He also brought them out with silver and gold,
And there was none feeble among His tribes.
38 (L)Egypt was glad when they departed,
For the fear of them had fallen upon them.

  1. Psalm 105:36 Lit. struck down

26 But the Lord sent his servant Moses,
    along with Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27 They performed miraculous signs among the Egyptians,
    and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 The Lord blanketed Egypt in darkness,
    for they had defied[a] his commands to let his people go.
29 He turned their water into blood,
    poisoning all the fish.
30 Then frogs overran the land
    and even invaded the king’s bedrooms.
31 When the Lord spoke, flies descended on the Egyptians,
    and gnats swarmed across Egypt.
32 He sent them hail instead of rain,
    and lightning flashed over the land.
33 He ruined their grapevines and fig trees
    and shattered all the trees.
34 He spoke, and hordes of locusts came—
    young locusts beyond number.
35 They ate up everything green in the land,
    destroying all the crops in their fields.
36 Then he killed the oldest son in each Egyptian home,
    the pride and joy of each family.

37 The Lord brought his people out of Egypt, loaded with silver and gold;
    and not one among the tribes of Israel even stumbled.
38 Egypt was glad when they were gone,
    for they feared them greatly.
