34 God gave the command,and more grasshoppers camethan could be counted.
35 They ate every green plantand all the crops that grewin the land of Egypt.
36 Then God took the lifeof every first-born son.
37 When God led Israel from Egypt,they took silver and gold,and no one was left behind.
38 The Egyptians were afraidand gladly let them go.
39 God hid them under a cloudand guided them by fireduring the night.
40 When they asked for food,he sent more birdsthan they could eat.
