Psalms 105:32
30 Their land teemed with frogs, even in their royal chambers.
31 He spoke, and insects swarmed— gnats throughout their country.
He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.
33 He struck their vines and fig trees and shattered the trees of their country.
34 He spoke, and the locusts came— young locusts without number.
