43 How he displayed his signs in Egypt+

And his miracles in the region of Zoʹan,

44 And how he turned the Nile canals into blood+

So that they could not drink from their streams.

45 He sent swarms of gadflies to devour them+

And frogs to bring them to ruin.+

46 He gave their crops to the voracious locusts,

The fruit of their labor to the swarming locusts.+

47 He destroyed their vines with hail+

And their sycamore trees with hailstones.

48 He gave their beasts of burden over to the hail+

And their livestock to the lightning bolts.*

49 He inflicted his burning anger on them,

Fury and indignation and distress,

Companies of angels bringing calamity.

He did not spare them* from death;

And he gave them* over to pestilence.

51 Finally he struck down all the firstborn of Egypt,+

The beginning of their procreative power in the tents of Ham.
