31God's anger rose against them; he put to death the sturdiest among them, cutting down the young men of Israel.


In Context

28 He made them come down inside their camp, all around their tents.

29 They ate till they had more than enough, for he had given them what they craved.

30 But before they turned from the food they craved, even while it was still in their mouths,

31 God's anger rose against them; he put to death the sturdiest among them, cutting down the young men of Israel.

32 In spite of all this, they kept on sinning; in spite of his wonders, they did not believe.

33 So he ended their days in futility and their years in terror.
