Psalms 78:38-51

Still God was merciful. He forgave their sins and did not destroy them. Many times he held back his anger and did not stir up all his anger. He remembered that they were only human, like a wind that blows and does not come back. They turned against God so often in the desert and grieved him there. Again and again they tested God and brought pain to the Holy One of Israel. They did not remember his power or the time he saved them from the enemy. They forgot the signs he did in Egypt and his wonders in the fields of Zoan. He turned their rivers to blood so no one could drink the water. He sent flies that bit the people. He sent frogs that destroyed them. He gave their crops to grasshoppers and what they worked for to locusts. He destroyed their vines with hail and their sycamore trees with sleet. He killed their animals with hail and their cattle with lightning. He showed them his hot anger. He sent his strong anger against them, his destroying angels. He found a way to show his anger. He did not keep them from dying but let them die by a terrible disease. God killed all the firstborn sons in Egypt, the oldest son of each family of Ham.
