16He called downH7121 famineH7458 onH5921 the landH776 and cut offH7665 allH3605 their suppliesH42941 of foodH3899.17He sentH7971 a manH376 before themH6440— JosephH3130, soldH4376 as a slaveH5650.18They bruisedH6031 his feetH7272 with shacklesH3525 and placedH935 his neckH5315 in ironsH1270,19untilH5704H6256 his predictionH1697 came trueH935 and the wordH565 of the LORDH3068 proved him rightH6884.20The kingH4428 sentH7971 and released himH5425; the rulerH4910 of peoplesH5971 set him freeH6605.21He made himH7760 masterH113 of his householdH1004, rulerH4910 over allH3605 his substanceH7075,22to instructH6312 his princesH8269 as he pleasedH5315 and teachH2449 his elders wisdomH2205.

23Then IsraelH3478 enteredH935 EgyptH4714;JacobH3290 dweltH1481 in the landH776 of HamH2526.24And the LORD made His peopleH5971 veryH3966 fruitfulH6509,more numerousH6105 than their foesH6862,25whose heartsH3820 He turnedH2015 to hateH8130 His peopleH5971,to conspireH5230 against His servantsH5650.26He sentH7971 MosesH4872 His servantH5650,and AaronH175, whomH834 He had chosenH977.27They performedH7760 His miraculousH226 signsH1697 among them,and wondersH4159 in the landH776 of HamH2526.28He sentH7971 darknessH2822, and it became darkH2821—yet theyH3808 defiedH4784 His wordsH1697.3
29He turnedH2015 their watersH4325 to bloodH1818and caused their fishH1710 to dieH4191.30Their landH776 teemedH8317 with frogsH6854,even in their royalH4428 chambersH2315.31He spokeH559, and insectsH6157 swarmedH935—gnatsH3654 throughoutH3605 their countryH1366.32He gave themH5414 hailH1259 for rainH1653,with lightningH784H3852 throughout their landH776.33He struckH5221 their vinesH1612 and fig treesH8384and shatteredH7665 the treesH6086 of their countryH1366.34He spokeH559, and the locustsH697 cameH935—young locustsH3218 withoutH369 numberH4557.35They devouredH398 everyH3605 plantH6212 in their landH776and consumedH398 the produceH6529 of their soilH127.36Then He struckH5221 allH3605 the firstbornH1060 in their landH776,the firstfruitsH7225 of allH3605 their vigorH202.
37He brought Israel outH3318 with silverH3701 and goldH2091,and noneH369 among His tribesH7626 stumbledH3782.38EgyptH4714 was gladH8055 when they departedH3318,forH3588 the dreadH6343 of Israel had fallenH5307 on themH5921.39He spreadH6566 a cloudH6051 as a coveringH4539and a fireH784 to light upH215 the nightH3915.40They askedH7592, and He broughtH935 quailH7958and satisfied themH7646 with the breadH3899 of heavenH8064.41He openedH6605 a rockH6697, and waterH4325 gushed outH2100;it flowedH1980 like a riverH5104 in the desertH6723.42ForH3588 He rememberedH2142 His holyH6944 promiseH1697to AbrahamH85 His servantH5650.43He brought forth His peopleH5971H3318 with rejoicingH8342,His chosenH972 with shouts of joyH7440.44He gave themH5414 the landsH776 of the nationsH1471,that they might inheritH3423 the fruit of others’ laborH5999H3816,45thatH5668 they might keepH8104 His statutesH2706and obeyH5341 His lawsH8451.
