- "For¹ Jerusalemª is ruined,ª° and Judahª is fallen:ª° because¹ their tongueª and their doingsª [are] against¹ the LORD,ª to provokeª° the eyesª of his glory.ª" {Isa 3:8} + "They provoked him to jealousyª° with strangeª° [gods], with abominationsª provoked they him to anger.ª° ... And when the LORDª sawª° [it], he abhorredª° [them], because of the provokingª¹ of his sons,ª and of his daughters.ª" {Deu 32:16-19} + "They¹ have moved me to jealousyª° with [that which is] notª God;ª they have provoked me to angerª° with their vanities:ª and I¹ will move them to jealousyª° with [those which are] not¹ a people;ª I will provoke them to angerª° with a foolishª nation.ª" {Deu 32:21} + "Notwithstanding they would not¹ hear,ª° but hardenedª°¹ their necks,ª like to the neckª of their fathers,ª that¹ did not¹ believeª° in the LORDª their God.ª ... And they caused¹ their sonsª and their daughtersª to pass²° through¹ the fire,ª and usedª° divinationª and enchantments,ª° and sold²° themselves¹ to doª° evilª in the sightª of the LORD,ª to provoke him to anger.ª°" {2Kg 17:14-17} + "Because¹¹ they have forsakenª° me, and have burned incenseª° unto otherª gods,ª that¹ they might provoke me to angerª° with all¹ the worksª of their hands;ª therefore my wrathª shall be kindledª° against this¹ place,ª and shall not¹ be quenched.ª°" {2Kg 22:17} + "How² oft¹ did they provokeª° him in the wilderness,ª [and] grieveª° him in the desert!ª" {Psa 78:40} + "For they provoked him to angerª° with their high places,ª and moved him to jealousyª° with their graven images.ª" {Psa 78:58} + "For¹ the childrenª of Israelª and the childrenª of Judahª have¹ only¹ doneª° evilª beforeª me from their youth:ª¹ for¹ the childrenª of Israelª have only¹ provoked me to angerª°¹ with the workª of their hands,ª saithª° the LORD.ª ... And they builtª°¹ the high placesª of Baal,ª which¹ [are] in the valleyª of the sonª of Hinnom,ª to cause¹ their sonsª and their daughtersª to pass²° through¹ [the fire] unto Molech;ª which¹ I commandedª° them not,¹ neither¹ cameª° it into¹ my mind,ª that they should doª° this¹ abomination,ª to¹ cause¹ Judahª to sin.ª°" {Jer 32:30-35} + "Then he saidª° unto¹ me, Hast thou seenª° [this], O sonª of man?ª Is it a light thingª° to the houseª of Judahª that they commitª°¹¹ the abominationsª which¹ they commitª° here?¹ for¹ they have filledª°¹ the landª with violence,ª and have returnedª° to provoke me to anger:ª° and, lo,¹ they putª°¹ the branchª to¹ their nose.ª ... Therefore will I¹ also¹ dealª° in fury:ª mine eyeª shall not¹ spare,ª° neither¹ will I have pity:ª° and though they cryª° in mine earsª with a loudª voice,ª [yet] will I not¹ hearª° them." {Ezk 8:17-18} + "Fill²° ye² upª°¹ thenª the¹ measureª of yourª fathers.ª ... Verilyª I sayª° unto you,ª Allª these thingsª shall comeª° uponª thisª generation.ª" {Mtt 23:32-36}
