19 (A)“The Lord saw it and spurned them,
    because of the provocation of (B)his sons and his daughters.
20 And he said, (C)‘I will hide my face from them;
    I will see what their end will be,
for they are a perverse generation,
    children in whom is no faithfulness.
21 (D)They have made me jealous with what is no god;
    they have provoked me to anger (E)with their idols.
So (F)I will make them jealous with those who are no people;
    I will provoke them to anger with (G)a foolish nation.
22 For (H)a fire is kindled by my anger,
    and it burns to (I)the depths of Sheol,
devours the earth and its increase,
    and sets on fire the foundations of the mountains.

23 “‘And I will heap disasters upon them;
    (J)I will spend my arrows on them;
24 they shall be wasted with hunger,
    and devoured by plague
    and poisonous pestilence;
I will send (K)the teeth of beasts against them,
    with the venom of (L)things that crawl in the dust.
25 (M)Outdoors the sword shall bereave,
    and indoors terror,
for young man and woman alike,
    the nursing child with the man of gray hairs.
