Ulangan 32:22

32:22 For a fire has been kindled by my anger,

and it burns to lowest Sheol; ¹ 

it consumes the earth and its produce,

and ignites the foundations of the mountains.

Mazmur 89:46

89:46 How long, O Lord, will this last?

Will you remain hidden forever? ² 

Will your anger continue to burn like fire?

Mazmur 90:7

90:7 Yes, ³  we are consumed by your anger;

we are terrified by your wrath.

[32:22]  ¹ tn Or “to the lowest depths of the earth”; cf. NAB “to the depths of the nether world”; NIV “to the realm of death below”; NLT “to the depths of the grave.”

[32:22]  sn Sheol refers here not to hell and hell-fire – a much later concept – but to the innermost parts of the earth, as low down as one could get. The parallel with “the foundations of the mountains” makes this clear (cf. Pss 9:17; 16:10; 139:8; Isa 14:9, 15; Amos 9:2).

[89:46]  ² tn Heb “How long, O Lord, will hide yourself forever?”

[90:7]  ³ tn Or “for.”
