Psalms 78:49-55
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 78
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
49He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them. 50He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence; 51And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their strength in the tabernacles of Ham: 52But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock. 53And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the sea overwhelmed their enemies. 54And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to this mountain, which his right hand had purchased. 55He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 78
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
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

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. 53He 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
