ગુજરાતી2 રાજાઓ ૨૨:૧૭
કેમ કે, તેઓએ મને તજી દઈને બીજા દેવોની આગળ ધૂપ બાળ્યું છે. આ બધાં કુકર્મોથી તેઓએ મને ગુસ્સે કર્યો છે, માટે આ જગા પર મારો ગુસ્સો પ્રગટશે અને શાંત થશે નહિ.”
हिन्दी2 राजाओं २२:१७
उन लोगों ने मुझे त्याग कर पराए देवताओं के लिये धूप जलाया और अपनी बनाई हुई सब वस्तुओं के द्वारा मुझे क्रोध दिलाया है, इस कारण मेरी जलजलाहट इस स्थान पर भड़केगी और फिर शान्त न होगी।

In context

15She said to them, “The LORD the God of Israel says, ‘Tell the man who sent you to me,

16“The LORD says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on this place and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read.

17Because they have forsaken me and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched.’”

18But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, tell him, “The LORD the God of Israel says, ‘Concerning the words which you have heard,

19because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you,’ says the LORD.
