- I was jealous:
- "So the angelª that communedª° with me saidª° unto¹ me, Cryª° thou, saying,ª° Thus¹ saithª° the LORDª of hosts;ª I am jealousª° for Jerusalemª and for Zionª with a greatª jealousy.ª ... Therefore¹ thus¹ saithª° the LORD;ª I am returnedª° to Jerusalemª with mercies:ª my houseª shall be builtª° in it, saithª° the LORDª of hosts,ª and a lineª°² shall be stretched forthª° upon¹ Jerusalem.ª" {Zch 1:14-16} + "For they provoked him to angerª° with their high places,ª and moved him to jealousyª° with their graven images.ª ... When Godª heardª° [this], he was wroth,ª° and greatlyª abhorredª° Israel:ª" {Psa 78:58-59} + "The LORDª shall go forthª° as a mighty man,ª he shall stir upª° jealousyª like a manª of war:ª he shall cry,ª° yea,¹ roar;ª° he shall prevailª° against¹ his enemies.ª° ... I have long timeª¹ holden my peace;ª° I have been still,ª° [and] refrained²° myself:¹ [now] will I cryª° like a travailing woman;ª° I will destroyª°°² and devourª° at once.ª" {Isa 42:13-14} + "For he put onª° righteousnessª as a breastplate,ª and an helmetª of salvationª upon his head;ª and he put onª° the garmentsª of vengeanceª [for] clothing,ª and was cladª° with zealª as a cloke.ª" {Isa 59:17} + "For¹ the dayª of vengeanceª [is] in mine heart,ª and the yearª of my redeemedª° is come.ª° ... And I will tread downª° the peopleª in mine anger,ª and make them drunkª° in my fury,ª and I will bring downª° their strengthª to the earth.ª" {Isa 63:4-6} + "Look downª° from heaven,ª¹ and beholdª° from the habitationª¹ of thy holinessª and of thy glory:ª where¹ [is] thy zealª and thy strength,ª the soundingª of thy bowelsª and of thy merciesª toward¹ me? are they restrained?ª°" {Isa 63:15} + "Therefore¹ thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GOD;ª Surely¹¹ in the fireª of my jealousyª have I spokenª° against¹ the residueª of the heathen,ª and against¹ all¹ Idumea,ª which¹ have appointedª°¹ my landª into their possessionª with the joyª of all¹ [their] heart,ª with despitefulª minds,ª to¹ cast it out²¹ for a prey.ª ... Prophesyª° therefore¹ concerning¹ the landª of Israel,ª and sayª° unto the mountains,ª and to the hills,ª to the rivers,ª and to the valleys,ª Thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GOD;ª Behold,¹ I have spokenª° in my jealousyª and in my fury,ª because¹ ye have borneª° the shameª of the heathen:ª" {Ezk 36:5-6} + "Then will the LORDª be jealousª° for his land,ª and pityª°¹ his people.ª" {Jol 2:18} + "Godª [is] jealous,ª and the LORDª revengeth;ª° the LORDª revengeth,ª° and [is] furious;ªª the LORDª will take vengeanceª° on his adversaries,ª and he¹ reservethª° [wrath] for his enemies.ª°" {Nah 1:2} + "Who¹ can standª° beforeª his indignation?ª and who¹ can abideª° in the fiercenessª of his anger?ª his furyª is poured outª° like fire,ª and the rocksª are thrown downª° by¹ him." {Nah 1:6}
