The anger of Yahweh is described as burning like a fire. See how you translated this phrase in [Judges 2:14](../02/14.md). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
Here "nation" represents the people. Alternate translation: "these people have broken" or "the Israelites have broken" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
