Psalms 105:28 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 105:28

26 ^aHe sent Moses His servant,
And Aaron whom He had chosen.

27 They ^aperformed His signs among them,
And wonders in the land of Ham.

28 He sent darkness, and made it dark;
And they did not rebel against His word.

29 ^aHe turned their waters into blood,
And killed their fish.

30 ^aTheir land abounded with frogs,
Even in the chambers of their kings.

31 ^aHe spoke, and there came swarms of flies,
And lice in all their territory.

32 ^aHe gave them hail for rain,
And flaming fire in their land.

33 ^aHe struck their vines also, and their fig trees,
And splintered the trees of their territory.

34 ^aHe spoke, and locusts came,
Young locusts without number,

35 And ate up all the vegetation in their land,
And devoured the fruit of their ground.

36 ^aHe also¹ destroyed all the firstborn in their land,
^bThe first of all their strength.

37 ^aHe also brought them out with silver and gold,
And there was none feeble among His tribes.

38 ^aEgypt was glad when they departed,
For the fear of them had fallen upon them.

39 ^aHe spread a cloud for a covering,
And fire to give light in the night.

40 ^aThe people asked, and He brought quail,
And ^bsatisfied them with the bread of heaven.

41 ^aHe opened the rock, and water gushed out;
It ran in the dry places like a river.

42 For He remembered ^aHis holy promise,
And Abraham His servant.

43 He brought out His people with joy,
His chosen ones with¹ gladness.

44 ^aHe gave them the lands of the¹ Gentiles,
And they inherited the labor of the nations,

45 ^aThat they might observe His statutes
And keep His laws.
¹Praise the Lord!
