Deuteronomy 32:19-21

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁹ When the Lord saw this, he turned away from them.
    His sons and daughters had made him angry.
²⁰ He said, ‘I will not continue to help them.
    I will see what happens to them when I leave them alone.
They are children who do not obey me.
    They have not served me faithfully.
²¹ They have made me jealous as they serve false gods.
    They have made me angry as they worship useless idols.
So I will make them jealous as I help a useless nation.
    I will make them angry as I bless a foolish nation.
