Deuteronomy 32:16-22

16They worshipped foreign gods. So the Lord became angry and jealous. They made idols which he hated.

17They offered sacrifices to demons, instead of to God. They worshipped new gods which they had not known before. Your ancestors had never respected those gods.

18You forgot about your strong Rock, the God who gave you life.

19When the Lord saw this, he turned away from them. His sons and daughters had made him angry.

20He 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.

21They 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.

22I will become so angry that I punish them very much. I will destroy them like a hot fire. It will be like a fire that reaches deep down into the place of dead people. It will destroy the ground and everything that grows on it. It will burn deep down to the foundations of the mountains.
