* And when the LORD saw it , he abhorred them , because of the provoking of his sons , and of his daughters . * And he said , I will hide my face from them , I will see what their end shall be : for they are a very froward generation , children in whom is no faith . * 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 sh @#owl #, and shall consume the earth with her increase , and set on fire the foundations of the mountains . * I will heap mischiefs upon them ; I will spend mine arrows upon them . * They shall be burnt with hunger ra #ab #, and devoured with burning heat , and with bitter destruction : I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them , with the poison of serpents of the dst . * The sword without , and terror within , shall destroy both the young man and the virgin , the suckling also with the man of gray hairs . * I said , I would scatter them into corners , I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men : * Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy , lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely , and lest they should say , Our hand is high , and the LORD hath not done all this . * For they are a nation void of counsel , neither is there any understanding in them . * O that they were wise , that they understood this , that they would consider their latter end ! * How should one chase a thousand , and two put ten thousand to flight , except their Rock had sold them , and the LORD had shut them up ? * For their rock is not as our Rock , even our enemies themselves being judges . * For their vine is of the vine of Sodom , and of the fields of Gomorrah : their grapes are grapes of gall ro #sh #, their clusters are bitter : * Their wine is the poison of dragons , and the cruel venom of asps . * Is not this laid up in store with me , and sealed up among my treasures ? * To me belongeth vengeance , and recompence ; their foot shall slide in due time : for the day of their calamity is at hand , and the things that shall come upon them make haste . * For the LORD shall judge his people , and repent himself for his servants , when he seeth that their power is gone , and there is none shut up , or left . * And he shall say , Where are their gods , their rock in whom they trusted , * Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices , and drank the wine of their drink offerings ? let them rise up and help you , and be your protection . * See now that I , even I , am he , and there is no god with me : I kill , and I make alive ; I wound , and I heal : neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand . * For I lift up my hand to heaven , and say , I live for ever . * If I whet my glittering sword , and mine hand take hold on judgment ; I will render vengeance to mine enemies , and will reward them that hate me . * I will make mine arrows drunk with blood , and my sword shall devour flesh ; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives , from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy .
