40  How oft did they ||provoke him in the wilderness,

And zgrieve him in athe desert!

41  Yea, they turned back and btempted God,

And climited the dHoly One of Israel.

42  They eremembered not his hand,

Nor the day when he delivered them ||from the enemy.

43  fHow he had †wrought his gsigns in Egypt,

And his ghwonders in ithe field of Zoan:

44  And khad turned their rivers into blood;

And their lfloods, that they could not drink.

45  He sent mdivers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them;

And nfrogs, which destroyed them.

46  He gave also their increase unto othe caterpiller,

And their labour unto pthe locust.

47  qHe †destroyed their vines with hail,

And their rsycomore trees with ||frost.

48  †He gave up their cattle also to the hail,

And their flocks to ||hot thunderbolts.

49  He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger,

Wrath, and indignation, and trouble,

sBy sending evil angels among them.

50  †He made a way to his anger;

He spared not their soul from death,

But tgave ||their life over to the pestilence;

51  And usmote all the firstborn in Egypt;

xThe chief of their strength in the tabernacles yof Ham:

52  But zmade his own people to go forth alike sheep,

And zguided them in the wilderness like a flock.

53  And bhe aled them on safely, so that they feared not:

But cthe sea †overwhelmed their enemies.
