20 He said, |I will turn away from them and find out what will happen to them. They are devious people, children who can't be trusted. 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. 25 Foreign wars will kill off their children, and even at home there will be horrors. Young men and young women alike will die as well as nursing babies and gray-haired men. Deuteronomy 32:20-25, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
