40
How often they rebelled against Him in the wilderness
And grieved Him in the desert!
41
Again and again they tempted God,
And pained the Holy One of Israel.
42
They did not remember His power,
The day when He redeemed them from the enemy,
43
When He performed His signs in Egypt
And His marvels in the field of Zoan,
44
And turned their rivers to blood,
And their streams, so that they could not drink.
45
He sent swarms of flies among them that devoured them,
And frogs that destroyed them.
46
He also gave their crops to the grasshopper
And the product of their labor to the locust.
47
He destroyed their vines with hailstones
And their sycamore trees with frost.
48
He also turned their cattle over to the hailstones,
And their herds to bolts of lightning.
49
He sent His burning anger upon them,
Fury and indignation and trouble,
A band of destroying angels.
50
He leveled a path for His anger;
He did not spare their souls from death,
But turned their lives over to the plague,
51
And struck all the firstborn in Egypt,
The first and best of their vigor in the tents of Ham.
52
But He led His own people out like sheep,
And guided them in the wilderness like a flock;
53
He led them safely, so that they did not fear;
But the sea engulfed their enemies.
54
So He brought them to His holy land,
To this hill country which His right hand had gained.
55
He also drove out the nations from them
And apportioned them as an inheritance by measurement,
And had the tribes of Israel dwell in their tents.
