42. They did not remember His hand— the day He redeemed them from the foe,
43. when He displayed His signs in Egypt and His wonders in the plain of Zoan.
44. He turned their rivers into blood, so they could not drink from their streams.
45. He sent on them flies to devour them, and frogs to devastate them,
46. and gave their crops to the grasshopper, and their labor to the locust.
47. He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycamore trees with frost,
48. and gave over their cattle to the hail, and their flocks to fiery bolts.
49. He sent on them the fury of His anger —wrath and indignation and trouble— a band of evil angels.
50. He cleared a path for His anger. He spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the plague.
51. He struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, the firstfruits of their strength in the tents of Ham.
52. But He brought His people out like sheep, and led them in the wilderness like a flock.
53. He led them to safety, so they did not fear, but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.
54. Then He brought them to His holy territory, to the mountain His right hand had gotten.
55. He drove out nations before them, and allotted them an inheritance. He settled the tribes of Israel in their tents.
56. Yet they tested and rebelled against El Elyon, and did not keep His decrees.
