Psalms 105:32-45 ▼

32 He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.

33 He struck their vines and fig trees and shattered the trees of their country.

34 He spoke, and the locusts came—young locusts without number.

35 They devoured every plant in their land and consumed the produce of their soil.

36 Then He struck all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigor.

37 He brought Israel out with silver and gold, and none among His tribes stumbled.

38 Egypt was glad when they departed, for the dread of Israel had fallen on them.

39 He spread a cloud as a covering and a fire to light up the night.

40 They asked, and He brought quail and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

41 He opened a rock, and water gushed out; it flowed like a river in the desert.

42 For He remembered His holy promise to Abraham His servant.

43 He brought forth His people with rejoicing, His chosen with shouts of joy.

44 He gave them the lands of the nations, that they might inherit the fruit of others’ labor,

45 that they might keep His statutes and obey His laws. Hallelujah!
