49 He showed the Egyptians his anger. He sent his destroying angels against them.
50 He found a way to show his anger. He did not spare their lives. He let them die with a deadly disease.
51 He killed all the firstborn sons in Egypt. He killed every firstborn in Ham’s family.
52 Then he led Israel like a shepherd. He led his people like sheep into the desert.
53 He guided them safely. They had nothing to fear. He drowned their enemies in the sea.
54 He led his people to his holy land, to the mountain he took with his own power.
55 He forced the other nations out before them and gave each family its share of the land. He gave each tribe of Israel a place to live.
