Psalms 78:43-68

43How he had wroughtH7760 his signsH226 in EgyptH4714, and his wondersH4159 in the fieldH7704 of ZoanH6814:1

44And had turnedH2015 their riversH2975 into bloodH1818; and their floodsH5140, that they could not drinkH8354.

45He sentH7971 divers sorts of fliesH6157 among them, which devouredH398 them; and frogsH6854, which destroyedH7843 them.

46He gaveH5414 also their increaseH2981 unto the caterpillerH2625, and their labourH3018 unto the locustH697.

47He destroyedH2026 their vinesH1612 with hailH1259, and their sycomore treesH8256 with frostH2602.23

48He gave upH5462 their cattleH1165 also to the hailH1259, and their flocksH4735 to hot thunderboltsH7565.45

49He castH7971 upon them the fiercenessH2740 of his angerH639, wrathH5678, and indignationH2195, and troubleH6869, by sendingH4917 evilH7451 angelsH4397 among them.

50He madeH6424 a wayH5410 to his angerH639; he sparedH2820 not their soulH5315 from deathH4194, but gaveH5462 their lifeH2416 overH5462 to the pestilenceH1698;67

51And smoteH5221 all the firstbornH1060 in EgyptH4714; the chiefH7225 of their strengthH202 in the tabernaclesH168 of HamH2526:

52But made his own peopleH5971 to go forthH5265 like sheepH6629, and guidedH5090 them in the wildernessH4057 like a flockH5739.

53And he ledH5148 them on safelyH983, so that they fearedH6342 not: but the seaH3220 overwhelmedH3680 their enemiesH341.8

54And he broughtH935 them to the borderH1366 of his sanctuaryH6944, even to this mountainH2022, which his right handH3225 had purchasedH7069.

55He cast outH1644 the heathenH1471 also beforeH6440 them, and dividedH5307 them an inheritanceH5159 by lineH2256, and made the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to dwellH7931 in their tentsH168.

56Yet they temptedH5254 and provokedH4784 the most highH5945 GodH430, and keptH8104 not his testimoniesH5713:

57But turned backH5472, and dealt unfaithfullyH898 like their fathersH1: they were turned asideH2015 like a deceitfulH7423 bowH7198.

58For they provoked him to angerH3707 with their high placesH1116, and moved him to jealousyH7065 with their graven imagesH6456.

59When GodH430 heardH8085 this, he was wrothH5674, and greatlyH3966 abhorredH3988 IsraelH3478:

60So that he forsookH5203 the tabernacleH4908 of ShilohH7887, the tentH168 which he placedH7931 among menH120;

61And deliveredH5414 his strengthH5797 into captivityH7628, and his gloryH8597 into the enemy’sH6862 handH3027.

62He gaveH5462 his peopleH5971 overH5462 also unto the swordH2719; and was wrothH5674 with his inheritanceH5159.

63The fireH784 consumedH398 their young menH970; and their maidensH1330 were not given to marriageH1984.9

64Their priestsH3548 fellH5307 by the swordH2719; and their widowsH490 made no lamentationH1058.

65Then the LordH136 awakedH3364 as one out of sleepH3463, and like a mighty manH1368 that shoutethH7442 by reason of wineH3196.

66And he smoteH5221 his enemiesH6862 in the hinder partsH268: he putH5414 them to a perpetualH5769 reproachH2781.

67Moreover he refusedH3988 the tabernacleH168 of JosephH3130, and choseH977 not the tribeH7626 of EphraimH669:

68But choseH977 the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063, the mountH2022 ZionH6726 which he lovedH157.
