Psalm 105:31
He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.
He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies,.... Or a "mixture" {z} of various insects, and, as some interpret it, of wild beasts; and so Kimchi says evil beasts are meant, which were raised up to go into all their borders; the Arabic version renders it "dogflies", after the Septuagint; See Gill on "Psalms 78:45", this was the fourth plague, Exodus 8:24.
and lice in all their coasts; this is the third plague, and what the magicians could not imitate, but were obliged to own the finger of God was in it, Exodus 8:16. God can make use of mean and despicable instruments to do his work; the weakness of God is stronger than men.
