20 Eternal One: I won’t look at them when they pray;
        I’ll just watch and see what happens to them
    Because they’re a perverse generation,
        children who are unfaithful.
21     They’ve made Me jealous by worshiping something that isn’t God,
        and they’ve angered Me with their idols!
    So I’ll make them jealous by favoring those who aren’t a people;
        I’ll infuriate them with a godless nation.[a]
22     My anger will start a fire that will burn down to the land of the dead.
        It will consume the land and all its crops
        and set the mountains ablaze, right down to their foundations.
