24And the LORD made his people very fruitful and made them stronger than their foes.

25He turned their hearts to hate his people, to deal craftily with his servants.

26He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.

27They performed his signs among them and miracles in the land of Ham.

28He sent darkness, and made the land dark; they did not rebel against his words.

29He turned their waters into blood and caused their fish to die.

30Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the chambers of their kings.

31He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, and gnats throughout their country.

32He gave them hail for rain, and fiery lightning bolts through their land.

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

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

35which devoured all the vegetation in their land and ate up the fruit of their ground.

36He struck down all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their strength.

37Then he brought out Israel with silver and gold, and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.

38Egypt was glad when they departed, for dread of them had fallen upon it.

39He spread a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light by night.

40They asked, and he brought quail, and gave them bread from heaven in abundance.

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

42For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham, his servant.

43So he brought his people out with joy, his chosen ones with singing.

44And he gave them the lands of the nations, and they took possession of the fruit of the peoples' toil,

45that they might keep his statutes and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!
