13O my God, make them as a rolling thing, As stubble before wind.

14As a fire doth burn a forest, And as a flame setteth hills on fire,

15So dost Thou pursue them with Thy whirlwind, And with Thy hurricane troublest them.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

O my God, make them like whirling dust,

like chaff before the wind.

As fire consumes the forest,

as the flame sets the mountains ablaze,

so may you pursue them with your tempest

and terrify them with your hurricane!

NIVNew International Version (2011)

Make them like tumbleweed, my God,

like chaff before the wind.

As fire consumes the forest

or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,

so pursue them with your tempest

and terrify them with your storm.

Make them like tumbleweed, my God,

like straw before the wind.

As fire burns a forest,

as a flame blazes through mountains,

so pursue them with your tempest

and terrify them with your storm.

NLTNew Living Translation

O my God, scatter them like tumbleweed,

like chaff before the wind!

As a fire burns a forest

and as a flame sets mountains ablaze,

chase them with your fierce storm;

terrify them with your tempest.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

O my God, make them like the tumbleweed,

like the chaff before wind.

As fire burns a forest,

and as a flame sets afire mountains,

so pursue them with your tempest

and terrify them with your storm.

KJV 1900King James Version

O my God, make them like a wheel;

As the stubble before the wind.

As the fire burneth a wood,

And as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;

So persecute them with thy tempest,

And make them afraid with thy storm.
