47. He destroyed their vines with hailand their sycamore trees with sleet.
48. He killed their animals with hailand their cattle with lightning.
49. He showed them his hot anger.He sent his strong anger against them.He sent his destroying angels.
50. He found a way to show his anger.He did not keep them from dying.He let them die by a terrible disease.
51. God killed all the firstborn sons in Egypt,the oldest son of each family of Ham.
52. But God led out his people like sheep.He guided them like a flock through the desert.
53. He led them to safety. They had nothing to fear.But their enemies drowned in the sea.
54. So God brought them to his holy land.He brought them to the mountain country he took with his own power.
55. He forced out the other nations.And he had his people inherit the land.He let the tribes of Israel settle there in tents.
56. But they tested Godand turned against the Most High.They did not keep his rules.
57. They turned away and sinned just like their ancestors.They were like a crooked bow that does not shoot straight.
58. They made God angry by building places to worship false gods.They made him jealous with their idols.
