Psalms 78:40-51

Forgetting the Plagues and Deliverance

Psalms 78:40-51
40
How often they rebelled against him in the desert and grieved him in the wastelands!
41
Repeatedly they challenged God and pained the Holy One of Isra'el.
42
They didn't remember how he used his hand on the day he redeemed them from their enemy,
43
how he displayed his signs in Egypt, his wonders in the region of Tzo'an.
44
He turned their rivers into blood, so they couldn't drink from their streams.
45
He sent swarms of flies, which devoured them, and frogs, which destroyed them.
46
He gave their harvest to shearer-worms, the fruit of their labor to locusts.
47
He destroyed their vineyards with hail and their sycamore-figs with frost.
48
Their cattle too he gave over to the hail and their flocks to lightning bolts.
49
He sent over them his fierce anger, fury, indignation and trouble, with a company of destroying angels
50
to clear a path for his wrath. He did not spare them from death, but gave them over to the plague,
51
striking all the firstborn in Egypt, the firstfruits of their strength in the tents of Ham.
