For Jehovah thy God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.

Know then this day, that Jehovah thy God is he that goeth over before thee, a consuming fire; he will destroy them, and he will cast them down before thee, and thou shalt dispossess them and cause them to perish quickly, as Jehovah hath said unto thee.

And it came to pass when all the men of war were consumed, having died off from among the people,

And thou shalt consume all the peoples that Jehovah thy God will give up unto thee; thine eye shall not spare them, and thou shalt not serve their gods; for that would be a snare unto thee.

Now the days in which we came from Kadesh-barnea, until we had come over the torrent Zered, were thirty-eight years; until the whole generation of the men of war was consumed from the midst of the camp, as Jehovah had sworn unto them.

Moreover the hand of Jehovah was against them to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.

And now, why should we die? for this great fire will consume us. If we hear the voice of Jehovah our God any more, we shall die.

Jehovah will make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land whither thou goest to possess it.

For a fire is kindled in mine anger, And it shall burn into the lowest Sheol, And shall consume the earth and its produce, And set fire to the foundations of the mountains.

They shall be consumed with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, And with poisonous pestilence; And the teeth of beasts will I send against them, With the poison of what crawleth in the dust.
