Exodus 34. Jealous God

Exodus 34:14 NIV
Do not worship any other god, for the Lord , whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

Let read what Chinese said.

出埃及記 34:14 不可敬拜別神,因為耶和華是忌邪的神,名為忌邪者。 (分享自Android快速聖經)

Chinese word kit really mean jealous  but hate evil.

From the free dictionary.  There are many mening and the last one - intolerant  of disloyalty.

Exodus 20:4-5 NIV
“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,

Look back at the ten commandments then  it actually link the jealousy  to the idolatry.
