⁶ Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday.

²⁹ It happened at midnight, that Yahweh struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.

³⁰ Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

⁴⁸ He stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.

³⁵ It happened that night, that the angel of Yahweh went forth, and struck in the camp of the Assyrians one hundred eighty-five thousand: and when men arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies.

⁵ Yahweh is your keeper. Yahweh is your shade on your right hand.

⁶ The sun will not harm you by day, Nor the moon by night.

⁶ You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren't troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.

⁷ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.

¹⁵ So Yahweh sent a pestilence on Israel from the morning even to the time appointed; and there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men.

³ and all ate the same spiritual food;

⁴ and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.

⁵ However with most of them, God was not well pleased, for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

⁶ Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

⁷ Neither be idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play."

⁸ Neither let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them committed, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell.

⁹ Neither let us test the Lord, as some of them tested, and perished by the serpents.

¹⁰ Neither grumble, as some of them also grumbled, and perished by the destroyer.
