Story from bible about king who's heart is hardened and brought plague upon his kingdom, also similarities?

Question

First off I can't remember what story this is, or where in the bible it is, all first born sons were killed, and other plagues. I am reading what I believe is an excerpt from Sophocles' Antigone, about Creon, the king of Thebes who made a decision that brought plague upon his household and his people. Any similarities between the stories?
