78:48He rained hail down on their cattle,57
and hurled lightning bolts down on their livestock.58
78:49His raging anger lashed out against them,59
He sent fury, rage, and trouble
as messengers who bring disaster.60
78:50He sent his anger in full force;61
he did not spare them from death;
he handed their lives over to destruction.62
Footnotes
- 57 Heb “and he turned over to the hail their cattle.”
- 58 Heb “and their livestock to the flames.” “Flames” here refer to the lightning bolts that accompanied the storm.
- 59 Heb “he sent against them the rage of his anger.” The phrase “rage of his anger” employs an appositional genitive. Synonyms are joined in a construct relationship to emphasize the single idea. For a detailed discussion of the grammatical point with numerous examples, see Y. Avishur, “Pairs of Synonymous Words in the Construct State (and in Appositional Hendiadys) in Biblical Hebrew,” Semitics 2 (1971): 17–81.
- 60 Heb “fury and indignation and trouble, a sending of messengers of disaster.”
- 61 Heb “he leveled a path for his anger.” There were no obstacles to impede its progress; it moved swiftly and destructively.
- 62 Or perhaps “[the] plague.”

But gave their life over to the pestilence;
