105:28He made it dark;33
they did not disobey his orders.34
105:29He turned their water into blood,
and killed their fish.
105:30Their land was overrun by frogs,
which even got into the rooms of their kings.
105:31He ordered flies to come;35
gnats invaded their whole territory.
105:32He sent hail along with the rain;36
there was lightning in their land.37
105:33He destroyed their vines and fig trees,
and broke the trees throughout their territory.
105:34He ordered locusts to come,38
innumerable grasshoppers.
105:35They ate all the vegetation in their land,
and devoured the crops of their fields.39
105:36He struck down all the firstborn in their land,
the firstfruits of their reproductive power.40
Footnotes
- 33 Heb “he sent darkness and made it dark.” He made it dark. The psalmist begins with the ninth plague (see Exod 10:21–29).
- 34 Heb “they did not rebel against his words.” Apparently this refers to Moses and Aaron, who obediently carried out God’s orders.
- 35 Heb “he spoke and flies came.”
- 36 Heb “he gave their rains hail.”
- 37 Heb “fire of flames [was] in their land.”
- 38 Heb “he spoke and locusts came.”
- 39 Heb “the fruit of their ground.”
- 40 Heb “the beginning of all their strength,” that is, reproductive power (see Ps 78:51). Verses 28–36 recall the plagues in a different order than the one presented in Exodus: v. 28 (plague 9), v. 29 (plague 1), v. 30 (plague 2), v. 31a (plague 4), v. 31b (plague 3), vv. 32–33 (plague 7), vv. 34–35 (plague 8), v. 36 (plague 10). No reference is made in Ps 105 to plagues 5 and 6.

ESVEnglish Standard Version
He sent darkness, and made the land dark;
they did not rebel against his words.
He turned their waters into blood
and caused their fish to die.
Their land swarmed with frogs,
even in the chambers of their kings.
He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,
and gnats throughout their country.
He gave them hail for rain,
and fiery lightning bolts through their land.
He struck down their vines and fig trees,
and shattered the trees of their country.
He spoke, and the locusts came,
young locusts without number,
which devoured all the vegetation in their land
and ate up the fruit of their ground.
He struck down all the firstborn in their land,
the firstfruits of all their strength.

NIVNew International Version (2011)
He sent darkness and made the land dark—
for had they not rebelled against his words?
He turned their waters into blood,
causing their fish to die.
Their land teemed with frogs,
which went up into the bedrooms of their rulers.
He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,
and gnats throughout their country.
He turned their rain into hail,
with lightning throughout their land;
he struck down their vines and fig trees
and shattered the trees of their country.
He spoke, and the locusts came,
grasshoppers without number;
they ate up every green thing in their land,
ate up the produce of their soil.
Then he struck down all the firstborn in their land,
the firstfruits of all their manhood.

NLTNew Living Translation
The Lord blanketed Egypt in darkness,
for they had defied his commands to let his people go.
He turned their water into blood,
poisoning all the fish.
Then frogs overran the land
and even invaded the king’s bedrooms.
When the Lord spoke, flies descended on the Egyptians,
and gnats swarmed across Egypt.
He sent them hail instead of rain,
and lightning flashed over the land.
He ruined their grapevines and fig trees
and shattered all the trees.
He spoke, and hordes of locusts came—
young locusts beyond number.
They ate up everything green in the land,
destroying all the crops in their fields.
Then he killed the oldest son in each Egyptian home,
the pride and joy of each family.

He sent darkness and made it dark,
and they did not rebel against his words.
He turned their waters into blood
and it killed their fish.
Their land swarmed with frogs,
even in the chambers of their kings.
He spoke, and there came flies
and gnats throughout all their territory.
He gave hail for their rains
and the fire of lightning in their land.
And he struck their vines and fig trees,
and shattered the trees of their territory.
He spoke and there came locusts
and young locusts without number.
And they ate up all the vegetation in their land,
and they ate up the fruit of their ground.
And he struck down all the firstborn in their land,
the first of all their virility.

KJV 1900King James Version
He sent darkness, and made it dark;
And they rebelled not against his word.
He turned their waters into blood,
And slew their fish.
Their land brought forth frogs in abundance,
In the chambers of their kings.
He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies,
And lice in all their coasts.
He gave them hail for rain,
And flaming fire in their land.
He smote their vines also and their fig trees;
And brake the trees of their coasts.
He spake, and the locusts came,
And caterpillers, and that without number,
And did eat up all the herbs in their land,
And devoured the fruit of their ground.
He smote also all the firstborn in their land,
The chief of all their strength.
