43
when He performed His miraculous signs in Egypt
and His wonders in the region of Zoan.(A)
44
He turned their rivers into blood,
and they could not drink from their streams.(B)
45
He sent among them swarms of flies,(C)
which fed on them,
and frogs, which devastated them.(D)
46
He gave their crops to the caterpillar
and the fruit of their labor to the locust.(E)
47
He killed their vines with hail
and their sycamore fig trees with a flood.
48
He handed over their livestock to hail
and their cattle to lightning bolts.(F)
49
He sent His burning anger against them:
fury, indignation, and calamity—
a band of deadly messengers.(a)(G)
50
He cleared a path for His anger.
He did not spare them from death
but delivered their lives to the plague.(H)
51
He struck all the firstborn(I) in Egypt,
the first progeny of the tents of Ham.(b)(J)
