21 They made me jealous by what is no god

and angered me with their worthless idols.

I will make them envious by those who are not a people;

I will make them angry by a nation that has no understanding.

22 For a fire will be kindled by my wrath,

one that burns down to the realm of the dead below.

It will devour the earth and its harvests

and set afire the foundations of the mountains.

23 “I will heap calamities on them

and spend my arrows against them.

24 I will send wasting famine against them,

consuming pestilence and deadly plague;

I will send against them the fangs of wild beasts,

the venom of vipers that glide in the dust.

21 They have made me jealous with what is no god;

they have provoked me to anger with their idols.

So I will make them jealous with those who are no people;

I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

22 For a fire is kindled by my anger,

and it burns to the depths of Sheol,

devours the earth and its increase,

and sets on fire the foundations of the mountains.

23 “ ‘And I will heap disasters upon them;

I will spend my arrows on them;

24 they shall be wasted with hunger,

and devoured by plague

and poisonous pestilence;

I will send the teeth of beasts against them,

with the venom of things that crawl in the dust.

21 They have roused my jealousy by worshiping things that are not God;

they have provoked my anger with their useless idols.

Now I will rouse their jealousy through people who are not even a people;

I will provoke their anger through the foolish Gentiles.

22 For my anger blazes forth like fire

and burns to the depths of the grave.

It devours the earth and all its crops

and ignites the foundations of the mountains.

23 I will heap disasters upon them

and shoot them down with my arrows.

24 I will weaken them with famine,

burning fever, and deadly disease.

I will send the fangs of wild beasts

and poisonous snakes that glide in the dust.

21 They have provoked Me to jealousy by what is not God;

They have moved Me to anger by their foolish idols.

But I will provoke them to jealousy by those who are not a nation;

I will move them to anger by a foolish nation.

22 For a fire is kindled in My anger,

And shall burn to the lowest hell;

It shall consume the earth with her increase,

And set on fire the foundations of the mountains.

23 ‘I will heap disasters on them;

I will spend My arrows on them.

24 They shall be wasted with hunger,

Devoured by pestilence and bitter destruction;

I will also send against them the teeth of beasts,

With the poison of serpents of the dust.

21 They used things that are not gods to make me jealous

and worthless idols to make me angry.

So I will use those who are not a nation to make them jealous;

I will use a nation that does not understand to make them angry.

22 My anger has started a fire

that burns down to the place of the dead.

It will burn up the ground and its crops,

and it will set fire to the base of the mountains.

23 “I will pile troubles upon them

and shoot my arrows at them.

24 They will be starved and sick,

destroyed by terrible diseases.

I will send them vicious animals

and gliding, poisonous snakes.

21 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God;

They have provoked me to anger with their vanities:

And I will move them to jealousy with those that are not a people;

I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

22 For a fire is kindled in mine anger,

And burneth unto the lowest Sheol,

And devoureth the earth with its increase,

And setteth on fire the foundations of the mountains.

23 I will heap evils upon them;

I will spend mine arrows upon them:

24 They shall be wasted with hunger, and devoured with burning heat

And bitter destruction;

And the teeth of beasts will I send upon them,

With the poison of crawling things of the dust.

21 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is no •God; They have exasperated me with their vanities; And I will move them to jealousy with that which is not a people; With a foolish nation will I provoke them to anger. 22 For a fire is kindled in mine anger, And it shall burn into the lowest Sheol, And shall consume the earth and its produce, And set fire to the foundations of the mountains. 23 I will heap mischiefs upon them; Mine arrows will I spend against them. 24 They shall be consumed with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, And with poisonous pestilence; And the teeth of beasts will I send against them, With the poison of what crawleth in the dust.

21 They made him furious because they worshiped foreign gods 

and angered him because they worshiped worthless idols. 

So I will use those who are not my people to make them jealous 

and a nation of godless fools to make them angry. 

22 My anger has started a fire 

that will burn to the depths of hell. 

It will consume the earth and its crops 

and set the foundations of the mountains on fire. 

23 I will bring one disaster after another on them. 

I will use up all my arrows on them. 

24 They will be starved by famines 

and ravaged by pestilence and deadly epidemics. 

I will send vicious animals against them 

along with poisonous animals that crawl on the ground. 

21 They have provoked My jealousy

with their so-called gods;

they have enraged Me with their worthless idols.

So I will provoke their jealousy

with an inferior people;

I will enrage them with a foolish nation.

22 For fire has been kindled because of My anger

and burns to the depths of Sheol;

it devours the land and its produce,

and scorches the foundations of the mountains.

23 “I will pile disasters on them;

I will use up My arrows against them.

24 They will be weak from hunger,

ravaged by pestilence and bitter plague;

I will unleash on them wild beasts with fangs,

as well as venomous snakes that slither in the dust.

21 They made me jealous with what is no god,

provoked me with their idols.

So I will make them jealous with what is no people,

provoke them with a foolish nation.

22 For a fire is kindled by my anger,

and burns to the depths of Sheol;

it devours the earth and its increase,

and sets on fire the foundations of the mountains.

23 I will heap disasters upon them,

spend my arrows against them:

24 wasting hunger,

burning consumption,

bitter pestilence.

The teeth of beasts I will send against them,

with venom of things crawling in the dust.

21 They annoyed me with what is not a god;

they provoked me with their idols.

So I will make them jealous with those not a people,

with a foolish nation I will provoke them.

22 For a fire was kindled by my anger,

and it burned up to the depths of Sheol,

and it devoured the earth and its produce,

and it set afire the foundation of the mountains.

23 I will heap disasters upon them;

my arrows I will spend on them.

24 They will become weakened by famine,

and consumed by plague and bitter pestilence;

and the teeth of wild animals I will send against them,

with the poison of the creeping things in the dust;

21 They made me jealous by serving what is not even a god.

They made me angry by worshiping worthless statues of gods.

I will use people who are not a nation to make them jealous.

I will use a nation that has no understanding to make them angry.

22 My anger has started a fire.

It burns down to the kingdom of the dead.

It will eat up the earth and its crops.

It will set the base of the mountains on fire.

23 “I will pile troubles on my people.

I will shoot all of my arrows at them.

24 I will send them hunger. It will make them weak.

I will send terrible sickness. I will send deadly plagues.

I will send wild animals that will tear them apart.

Snakes that glide through the dust will bite them.

21 ‘They have made Me jealous with what is not God;

They have provoked Me to anger with their idols.

So I will make them jealous with those who are not a people;

I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation,

22 For a fire is kindled in My anger,

And burns to the lowest part of Sheol,

And consumes the earth with its yield,

And sets on fire the foundations of the mountains.

23 ‘I will heap misfortunes on them;

I will use My arrows on them.

24 ‘They will be wasted by famine, and consumed by plague

And bitter destruction;

And the teeth of beasts I will send upon them,

With the venom of crawling things of the dust.
