Psalms 105:33
31 He spoke, and insects swarmed— gnats throughout their country.
32 He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.
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.
35 They devoured every plant in their land and consumed the produce of their soil.
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.
