Deuteronomy 32:19-21

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁹ The Lord saw it, and was jealous;^[a]
    he spurned^[b] his sons and daughters.
²⁰ He said: I will hide my face from them,
    I will see what their end will be;
for they are a perverse generation,
    children in whom there is no faithfulness.
²¹ They made me jealous with what is no god,
    provoked me with their idols.
So I will make them jealous with what is no people,
    provoke them with a foolish nation.
