Psalms 78:39-54

³⁹So He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again.

⁴⁰How oft did they rebel against Him in the wilderness, and grieve Him in the desert!

⁴¹And still again they tried God, and set bounds to the Holy One of Israel.

⁴²They remembered not His hand, nor the day when He redeemed them from the adversary.

⁴³How He set His signs in Egypt, and His wonders in the field of Zoan;

⁴⁴And turned their rivers into blood, so that they could not drink their streams.

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

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

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

⁴⁸He gave over their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to fiery bolts.

⁴⁹He sent forth upon them the fierceness of His anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, a sending of messengers of evil.

⁵⁰He levelled a path for His anger; He spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;

⁵¹And smote all the first-born in Egypt, the first-fruits of their strength in the tents of Ham;

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

⁵³And He led them safely, and they feared not; but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.

⁵⁴And He brought them to His holy border, to the mountain, which His right hand had gotten.
