  • English: “So Yahweh the Lord says this:
    ‘Because I am extremely angry with what happens at this place,
    I will punish these people severely ;
    my being very angry will be like a fire that will not be extinguished,
    and I will destroy the people, their animals, their fruit trees, and their crops.’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
