Psalms 78:46-55
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 78
46He also gave their crops to the grasshopper And the product of their labor to the locust. 47He destroyed their vines with hailstones And their sycamore trees with frost. 48He also turned their cattle over to the hailstones, And their herds to bolts of lightning. 49He sent His burning anger upon them, Fury and indignation and trouble, A band of destroying angels. 50He leveled a path for His anger; He did not spare their souls from death, But turned their lives over to the plague, 51And struck all the firstborn in Egypt, The first and best of their vigor in the tents of Ham. 52But He led His own people out like sheep, And guided them in the wilderness like a flock; 53He led them safely, so that they did not fear; But the sea engulfed their enemies. 54So He brought them to His holy land, To this hill country which His right hand had gained. 55He also drove out the nations from them And apportioned them as an inheritance by measurement, And had the tribes of Israel dwell in their tents.King James Version

Chapter 78
46He gave their crops to the caterpillar and the fruit of their labor to the locust. 47He killed their vines with hail and their sycamore fig trees with a flood. 48He handed over their livestock to hail and their cattle to lightning bolts. 49He sent his burning anger against them: fury, indignation, and calamity— a band of deadly messengers. 50He cleared a path for his anger. He did not spare them from death but delivered their lives to the plague. 51He struck all the firstborn in Egypt, the first progeny of the tents of Ham. 52He led his people out like sheep and guided them like a flock in the wilderness. 53He led them safely, and they were not afraid; but the sea covered their enemies. 54He brought them to his holy territory, to the mountain his right hand acquired.New Living Translation
Chapter 78
46He gave their crops to caterpillars; their harvest was consumed by locusts. 47He destroyed their grapevines with hail and shattered their sycamore-figs with sleet. 48He abandoned their cattle to the hail, their livestock to bolts of lightning. 49He loosed on them his fierce anger — all his fury, rage, and hostility. He dispatched against them a band of destroying angels. 50He turned his anger against them; he did not spare the Egyptians’ lives but ravaged them with the plague. 51He killed the oldest son in each Egyptian family, the flower of youth throughout the land of Egypt. 52But he led his own people like a flock of sheep, guiding them safely through the wilderness. 53He kept them safe so they were not afraid; but the sea covered their enemies. 54He brought them to the border of his holy land, to this land of hills he had won for them. 55He drove out the nations before them; he gave them their inheritance by lot. He settled the tribes of Israel into their homes.English Standard Version
Chapter 78
46He gave their crops to the destroying locust and the fruit of their labor to the locust. 47He destroyed their vines with hail and their sycamores with frost. 48He gave over their cattle to the hail and their flocks to thunderbolts. 49He let loose on them his burning anger, wrath, indignation, and distress, a company of destroying angels. 50He made a path for his anger; he did not spare them from death, but gave their lives over to the plague. 51He struck down every firstborn in Egypt, the firstfruits of their strength in the tents of Ham. 52Then he led out his people like sheep and guided them in the wilderness like a flock. 53 He led them in safety, so that they were not afraid, but the sea overwhelmed their enemies. 54And he brought them to his holy land, to the mountain which his right hand had won. 55He drove out nations before them; he apportioned them for a possession and settled the tribes of Israel in their tents.New International Version
Chapter 78
46He gave their crops to the grasshopper, their produce to the locust. 47He destroyed their vines with hail and their sycamore-figs with sleet. 48He gave over their cattle to the hail, their livestock to bolts of lightning. 49He unleashed against them his hot anger, his wrath, indignation and hostility— a band of destroying angels. 50He prepared a path for his anger; he did not spare them from death but gave them over to the plague. 51He struck down all the firstborn of Egypt, the firstfruits of manhood in the tents of Ham. 52But he brought his people out like a flock; he led them like sheep through the wilderness. 53He guided them safely, so they were unafraid; but the sea engulfed their enemies. 54And so he brought them to the border of his holy land, to the hill country his right hand had taken.New King James Version
