[8] Who smote  the firstborn  of Egypt,  both of man  and beast.  [9] Who sent  tokens  and wonders  into the midst  of thee, O Egypt,  upon Pharaoh,  and upon all his servants.  [10] Who smote  great  nations,  and slew  mighty  kings;  [11] Sihon  king  of the Amorites,  and Og  king  of Bashan,  and all the kingdoms  of Canaan:  [12] And gave  their land  for an heritage,  unto Israel  his people. 

What does Psalms 135:8-12 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

God"s sovereignty is also clear from His control over Israel"s history. He sent the plagues on Egypt, even smiting Pharaoh"s first-born. He also defeated many kings and subdued many nations to give Israel the Promised Land. Notable among these kings were Sihon and Og ( Numbers 21).
