31When the wrath of God came euen vpon them, and slew the strongest of them, and smote downe the chosen men in Israel.
32For all this, they sinned stil, and beleeued not his wonderous woorkes.
33Therefore their daies did hee consume in vanitie, and their yeeres hastily.
34And when hee slewe them, they sought him and they returned, and sought God earely.
35And they remembred that God was their strength, and the most high God their redeemer.
36But they flattered him with their mouth, and dissembled with him with their tongue.
37For their heart was not vpright with him: neither were they faithfull in his couenant.
38Yet he being merciful forgaue their iniquitie, and destroied them not, but oft times called backe his anger, and did not stirre vp all his wrath.
39For he remembered that they were flesh: yea, a winde that passeth and commeth not againe.
40How oft did they prouoke him in the wildernes? and grieue him in the desert?
41Yea, they returned, and tempted God, and limited the Holie one of Israel.
42They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he deliuered them from the enemie,
43Nor him that set his signes in Egypt, and his wonders in the fielde of Zoan,
44And turned their riuers into blood, and their floods, that they could not drinke.
45Hee sent a swarme of flies among them, which deuoured them, and frogs, which destroyed them.
46He gaue also their fruites vnto the caterpiller, and their labour vnto the grassehopper.
47He destroied their vines with haile, and their wilde figge trees with the hailestone.
48He gaue their cattell also to the haile, and their flockes to the thunderboltes.
49Hee cast vpon them the fiercenesse of his anger, indignation and wrath, and vexation by the sending out of euill Angels.
50He made a way to his anger: he spared not their soule from death, but gaue their life to the pestilence,
51And smote al the firstborne in Egypt, euen the beginning of their strength in the tabernacles of Ham.
52But hee made his people to goe out like sheepe, and led them in the wildernes like a flocke.
53Yea, he caried them out safely, and they feared not, and the Sea couered their enemies.
54And he brought them vnto the borders of his Sanctuarie: euen to this Mountaine, which his right hand purchased.
