Psalm 105:27–45

²⁷They performed his signs among them

and miracles in the land of Ham.^*

²⁸He sent darkness and made the land dark;

they rebelled^b against his words.^*

²⁹He turned their waters into blood

and caused their fish to die.^*

³⁰Their land swarmed with frogs,

even in the chambers of their kings.^*

³¹He spoke, and there came swarms of flies

and gnats throughout their country.^*

³²He gave them hail for rain

and lightning that flashed through their land.^*

³³He struck their vines and fig trees

and shattered the trees of their country.

³⁴He spoke, and the locusts came,

and young locusts without number;^*

³⁵they devoured all the vegetation in their land

and ate up the fruit of their ground.

³⁶He struck down all the firstborn in their land,

the first issue of all their strength.^*

³⁷Then he brought Israel^c out with silver and gold,

and there was no one among their tribes who stumbled.^*

³⁸Egypt was glad when they departed,

for dread of them had fallen upon it.^*

³⁹He spread a cloud for a covering

and fire to give light by night.^*

⁴⁰They asked, and he brought quails

and gave them food from heaven in abundance.^*

⁴¹He opened the rock, and water gushed out;

it flowed through the desert like a river.^*

⁴²For he remembered his holy promise

and Abraham, his servant.^*

⁴³So he brought his people out with joy,

his chosen ones with singing.

⁴⁴He gave them the lands of the nations,

and they took possession of the wealth of the peoples,^*

⁴⁵that they might keep his statutes

and observe his laws.

Praise the Lord!^*
