"When the anger of God went up against them, And slew of the fattest of them, And smote down the young men of Israel. "
— Psalms 78:31, American Standard Version
“The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and smote down the chosen men of Israel.”
“when the anger of God went up against them, killed some of the fattest of them, and struck down the young men of Israel.”
“when the anger of God flared up against them. He killed some of the strongest of them; he brought the young men of Israel to their knees.”
“The wrath of God came on them, and put to death the fattest of them, and put an end to the young men of Israel.”
“The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and smote down the chosen men of Israel.”
And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, Round about their habitations.
So they did eat, and were well filled; And he gave them their own desire.
They were not estranged from that which they desired, Their food was yet in their mouths,
When the anger of God went up against them, And slew of the fattest of them, And smote down the young men of Israel.
For all this they sinned still, And believed not in his wondrous works.
Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, And their years in terror.
When he slew them, then they inquired after him; And they returned and sought God earnestly.
