4. For Yahweh has chosen Jacob for Himself,Israel as His treasured possession.

5. For I know that Yahweh is great;our Lord is greater than all gods.

6. Yahweh does whatever He pleasesin heaven and on earth,in the seas and all the depths.

7. He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth.He makes lightning for the rainand brings the wind from His storehouses.

8. He struck down the firstborn of Egypt,both man and beast.

9. He sent signs and wonders against you, Egypt,against Pharaoh and all his officials.

10. He struck down many nationsand slaughtered mighty kings:

11. Sihon king of the Amorites,Og king of Bashan,and all the kings of Canaan.
