Psalms 105:30
28 He sent darkness, and it became dark— yet they defied His words.
29 He turned their waters to blood and caused their fish to die.
Their land teemed with frogs, even in their royal chambers.
31 He spoke, and insects swarmed— gnats throughout their country.
32 He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
