“Therefore wait for me,” declares the Lord,

“for the day when I rise up to seize the prey.

for in the fire of my jealousy

all the earth shall be consumed.

all my burning anger;

for the whole earth will be consumed

by the fire of my jealousy.

NLTNew Living Translation

Therefore, be patient,” says the Lord.

and pour out my fiercest anger and fury on them.

All the earth will be devoured

by the fire of my jealousy.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

“Therefore, wait for me”—a declaration of Yahweh—

“for the day of my rising as a witness.

For my decision is to gather nations,

to assemble kingdoms,

to pour out my wrath upon them, all my burning anger.

For by the fire of my anger all the land shall be consumed.

KJV 1900King James Version

Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the Lord,

Until the day that I rise up to the prey:

For my determination is to gather the nations,

That I may assemble the kingdoms,

To pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger:

For all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
