If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word horror, you can express the same idea with the words “horrified” or “horrible.” The author writes of what God did to their ancestors in terms of how other people would react when the saw what God did. Alternate translation: [he made them something that people would be horrified to see] or [he punished them horribly] (See also: figs-metonymy)
