And what about my enemies who did not want me to be king over them? Bring them here! Kill them in front of me!’ ”

至于我那些仇敌，不要我作他们王的，把他们拉来，在我面前杀了！’”

至于我那些仇敌，不要我作他们王的，把他们拉来，在我面前杀了！’”

至于那些反对我做王的仇敌，把他们捉回来，在我面前处决。’”

至于我那些仇敌，就是不愿意我作王统治他们的，把他们拉到这里来，在我面前杀掉！’”

不过我的这些敌人，就是不要我做王统治他们的人，把他们带到这里来，在我面前杀掉！”

至於我那些仇敵，不要我作他們王的，把他們拉來，在我面前殺了吧！』」

至於我那些仇敵，就是不願意我作王統治他們的，把他們拉到這裡來，在我面前殺掉！’”

至於我這些仇敵、不願意我做王管理他們的、你們要帶到這裏來，在我面前給屠殺掉。」』

不過我的這些敵人，就是不要我做王統治他們的人，把他們帶到這裡來，在我面前殺掉！」

至於我敵、不欲我君之者、曳之來、誅於我前、○

But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them— bring them here and kill them in front of me.’”

But as for these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slaughter them before me.’”

And as for these enemies of mine who didn’t want me to be their king— bring them in and execute them right here in front of me.’”

But bring here these enemies of mine, who did not want me to rule over them, and slaughter them in my presence.’”

But as for these enemies of mine who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slaughter them in my presence.’ ”

But bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.’”

But these mine enemies, that would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

But bring here these enemies of mine, who did not want me to rule over them, and slaughter them in my presence.’”

But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay[ them] before me.

But as for these enemies of mine who did not want me to be their king, bring them here and slaughter them in front of me!’”

But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’”

The king became very angry. He sent his army to destroy them. They killed those murderers and burned their city.

“ But those he ruled over hated him. They sent some messengers after him. They were sent to say,‘ We don’t want this man to be our king.’

But the Lord will make something totally new happen. The ground will open its mouth and swallow them up. It will swallow up everything that belongs to them. They will be buried alive. When that happens, you will know that these men have disrespected the Lord.”As soon as Moses finished saying all these words, what he had said came true. The ground under them broke open.It opened its mouth. It swallowed up those men. In fact, it swallowed up everyone who lived in their houses. It swallowed all Korah’s men. And it swallowed up everything they owned.They went down into the grave alive. Everything they owned went down with them. The ground closed over them and they died. And so they disappeared from the community.All the Israelites around them heard their cries. They ran away from them. They shouted,“ The ground is going to swallow us up too!”Then the Lord sent down fire. It burned up the 250 men offering the incense.

The Lord is a jealous God who punishes people. He pays them back for the evil things they do. He directs his anger against them. The Lord punishes his enemies. He holds his anger back until the right time to use it.

This is the time when God will punish Jerusalem. Everything will come true, just as it has been written.

Let their feast be a trap and a snare. Let my enemies get what’s coming to them.Let their eyes grow weak so they can’t see. Let their backs be bent forever.Pour out your anger on them. Let them feel what it is like.May their homes be deserted. May no one live in their tents.They attack those you have wounded. They talk about the pain of those you have hurt.Charge them with one crime after another. Don’t save them.May their names be erased from the book of life. Don’t include them in the list of those who do right.

So the Lord struck down the men Moses had sent to check out the land. They had returned and had spread a bad report about the land. And that had made the whole community speak out against Moses.Those men were to blame for spreading the bad report. So the Lord struck them down. They died of a plague.

You, the king, will capture all your enemies. Your right hand will take hold of them.When you appear for battle, you will burn them up like they were in a flaming furnace. The Lord will swallow them up in his great anger. His fire will burn them up.

“ Let us break free from their chains,” they say.“ Let us throw off their ropes.”The God who sits on his throne in heaven laughs. The Lord makes fun of those rulers and their plans.When he is angry, he warns them. When his anger blazes out, he terrifies them.

Hear the loud sounds coming from the city! Listen to the noise coming from the temple! I am the one causing it. I am paying back my enemies for everything they have done.

You will break them with an iron scepter. You will smash them to pieces like clay pots.”

But he will destroy Nineveh with a powerful flood. He will chase his enemies into the place of darkness.

Last of all, he sent his son to them.‘ They will respect my son,’ he said.“ But the renters saw the son coming. They said to one another,‘ This is the one who will receive all the owner’s property someday. Come, let’s kill him. Then everything will be ours.’So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard. Then they killed him.“ When the owner of the vineyard comes back, what will he do to those renters?”“ He will destroy those evil people,” they replied.“ Then he will rent the vineyard out to other renters. They will give him his share of the crop at harvest time.”

When you see that happen, your hearts will be filled with joy. Just as grass grows quickly, you will succeed. The Lord will show his power to those who serve him. But he will pour out his anger on his enemies.

The Jews who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets also forced us to leave. They do not please God. They are enemies of everyone.They try to keep us from speaking to the Gentiles. These Jews don’t want the Gentiles to be saved. In this way, these Jews always increase their sins to the limit. God’s anger has come on them at last.

Some will be killed by the sword. Others will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be taken over by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles come to an end.

He will come and kill them. He will give the vineyard to others.” When the people heard this, they said,“ We hope this never happens!”

And since that time, he waits for his enemies to be put under his control.

He said,“ I wish you had known today what would bring you peace! But now it is hidden from your eyes.The days will come when your enemies will arrive. They will build a wall of dirt up against your city. They will surround you and close you in on every side.You didn’t recognize the time when God came to you. So your enemies will smash you to the ground. They will destroy you and all the people inside your walls. They will not leave one stone on top of another.”

So I am sending you prophets, wise people, and teachers. You will kill some of them. You will nail some to a cross. Others you will whip in your synagogues. You will chase them from town to town.So you will pay for all the godly people’s blood spilled on earth. I mean from the blood of godly Abel to the blood of Zechariah, the son of Berekiah. Zechariah was the one you murdered between the temple and the altar.What I’m about to tell you is true. All this will happen to those who are now living.
