Psalm 105:23-25
New Catholic Bible
23 Then Israel went down into Egypt;
Jacob lived as an alien in the land of Ham.[a]
24 God greatly increased the number of his people
and made them too strong for their foes,
25 whose hearts he then turned[b] to hate his people
and to conspire against his servants.
