Psalms 135:9
7 He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He generates the lightning with the rain and brings forth the wind from His storehouses.
8 He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, of both man and beast.
He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.
10 He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings:
11 Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan.
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.
