105:23 Israel moved to 1 Egypt;
Jacob lived for a time 2 in the land of Ham.
105:24 The Lord 3 made his people very fruitful,
and made them 4 more numerous than their 5 enemies.
105:25 He caused them 6 to hate his people,
and to mistreat 7 his servants.
105:26 He sent his servant Moses,
and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
105:27 They executed his miraculous signs among them, 8
and his amazing deeds in the land of Ham.
105:28 He made it dark; 9
they did not disobey his orders. 10
105:29 He turned their water into blood,
and killed their fish.
105:30 Their land was overrun by frogs,
which even got into the rooms of their kings.
105:31 He ordered flies to come; 11
gnats invaded their whole territory.
105:32 He sent hail along with the rain; 12
there was lightning in their land. 13
105:33 He destroyed their vines and fig trees,
and broke the trees throughout their territory.
105:34 He ordered locusts to come, 14
innumerable grasshoppers.
105:35 They ate all the vegetation in their land,
and devoured the crops of their fields. 15
105:36 He struck down all the firstborn in their land,
the firstfruits of their reproductive power. 16
105:37 He brought his people 17 out enriched 18 with silver and gold;
none of his tribes stumbled.
105:38 Egypt was happy when they left,
for they were afraid of them. 19
