21They 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.

22My 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.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

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.

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.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

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.

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.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

They have provoked my jealousy

with what is not a god;

they have enraged me with their worthless idols.

So I will provoke their jealousy

with what is not a people;

I will enrage them with a foolish nation.

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.

NLTNew Living Translation

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.

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.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

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.

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.

KJV 1900King James Version

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 which are not a people;

I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

For a fire is kindled in mine anger,

And shall burn unto the lowest hell,

And shall consume the earth with her increase,

And set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
