Psalms 78:43
41 Again and again they tested God and provoked the Holy One of Israel.
42 They did not remember His power — the day He redeemed them from the adversary,
when He performed His signs in Egypt and His wonders in the fields of Zoan.
44 He turned their rivers to blood, and from their streams they could not drink.
45 He sent swarms of flies that devoured them, and frogs that devastated them.
