Strongs On/Off
Context
105:18 The shackles hurt his feet ; his neck was placed in an iron collar ,
105:19 until the time when his prediction came true. The Lord’s word proved him right.
105:20 The king authorized his release ; the ruler of nations set him free .
105:21 He put him in charge of his palace , and made him manager of all his property ,
105:22 giving him authority to imprison his officials and to teach his advisers .
105:23 Israel moved to Egypt ; Jacob lived for a time in the land of Ham .
105:24 The Lord made his people very fruitful , and made them more numerous than their enemies .
105:25 He caused them to hate his people , and to mistreat his servants .
105:26 He sent his servant Moses , and Aaron , whom he had chosen .
105:27 They executed his miraculous signs among them, and his amazing deeds in the land of Ham .
105:28 He made it dark ; they did not disobey his orders .
105:29 He turned their water into blood , and killed their fish .
105:30 Their land was overrun by frogs , which even got into the rooms of their kings .
105:31 He ordered flies to come ; gnats invaded their whole territory .
105:32 He sent hail along with the rain ; there was lightning in their land .
105:33 He destroyed their vines and fig trees , and broke the trees throughout their territory .
105:34 He ordered locusts to come , innumerable grasshoppers .
105:35 They ate all the vegetation in their land , and devoured the crops of their fields .
105:36 He struck down all the firstborn in their land , the firstfruits of their reproductive power .
105:37 He brought his people out enriched with silver and gold ; none of his tribes stumbled .
105:38 Egypt was happy when they left , for they were afraid of them.
105:39 He spread out a cloud for a cover , and provided a fire to light up the night .
105:40 They asked for food, and he sent quails ; he satisfied them with food from the sky .
105:41 He opened up a rock and water flowed out; a river ran through dry regions .
105:42 Yes , he remembered the sacred promise he made to Abraham his servant .
105:43 When he led his people out , they rejoiced; his chosen ones shouted with joy .
105:44 He handed the territory of nations over to them , and they took possession of what other peoples had produced ,
105:45 so that they might keep his commands and obey his laws . Praise the Lord !
