Car la jalousie est une fureur de mari, qui n'épargnera point [l'adultčre] au jour de la vengeance.
car dans l'homme, la jalousie est une fureur, et il n'épargnera pas au jour de la vengeance;
Car la jalousie met un homme en fureur, Et il est sans pitié au jour de la vengeance;

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For jealousy [is] the rage of a man,.... Fills a man with rage against him of whom he is jealous; which keeps boiling within him, till he has an opportunity of venting it: and very severe it is; it is strong as death, and cruel as the grave;
therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance; when he has an opportunity of avenging himself; whenever he finds the adulterer in his house, or catches him and his wife in bed together, he spares not to take away his life, and sometimes the life of both of them; instances of this nature history furnishes us with: or he will spare no cost and pains to prosecute him before a civil magistrate, and bring him to public justice; prayers and entreaties, bribes and gifts, wilt be of no avail, as follows.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 34. Jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare — He will not, when he has detected the adulterer in the fact, wait for the slow progress of the law: it is then to him the day of vengeance; and in general, he avenges himself on the spot, as we see above.
