105:26 他打發他的僕人摩西和他所揀選的亞倫，
105:27 在敵人中間顯他的神蹟，在含地顯他的奇事。
105:28 他命黑暗，就有黑暗；沒有違背他話的。
105:29 他叫埃及的水變為血，叫他們的魚死了。
105:30 在他們的地上以及王宮的內室，青蛙多多滋生。
105:31 他說一聲，蒼蠅就成群而來，並有虱子進入他們四境。
105:32 他給他們降下冰雹為雨，在他們的地上降下火焰。
105:33 他也擊打他們的葡萄樹和無花果樹，毀壞他們境內的樹木。
105:34 他說一聲，就有蝗蟲螞蚱上來，不計其數，
105:35 吃盡了他們地上各樣的菜蔬和田地的出產。
105:36 他又擊殺他們國內一切的長子，就是他們強壯時頭生的。
26 He
sent Moses his servant,
and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27 They performed his signs among them,
his wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness and made the land dark—
for had they not rebelled against his words?
29 He turned their waters into blood,
causing their fish to die.
30 Their land teemed with frogs,
which went up into the bedrooms of their rulers.
31 He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,
and gnats throughout their country.
32 He turned their rain into hail,
with lightning throughout their land;
33 he struck down their vines and fig trees
and shattered the trees of their country.
34 He spoke, and the locusts came,
grasshoppers without number;
35 they ate up every green thing in their land,
ate up the produce of their soil.
36 Then he struck down all the firstborn in their land,
the firstfruits of all their manhood.

詩人描述上帝降十災在埃及的作為，讓我們知道上帝是有主權掌握一切的上帝，祂可以興起祂的受造物來攻擊那些反抗上帝、壓迫上帝子民的人，使上帝的旨意可以成全，使祂的子民可以得勝利！
上帝不僅在古實行這事，在今日上帝依然是行這事，甚至是超越我們的想像！爭如祂藉由耶穌基督的死來戰勝死亡和罪惡的權勢，來拯救屬乎耶穌基督的子民，使他們成為上帝的兒女，不僅如此還讓他們可以在主耶穌基督得榮耀時，一起得著永恆的榮耀！
上帝既然如此應許，必然如此行大事在我們當中，正如當年上帝救以色列人出埃及的時候，所行的大事一樣！我們要為此大聲歡呼：哈利路亞！
