21 They have roused my jealousy by worshiping things that are not God;
    they have provoked my anger with their useless idols.
Now I will rouse their jealousy through people who are not even a people;
    I will provoke their anger through the foolish Gentiles.
22 For my anger blazes forth like fire

    and ignites the foundations of the mountains.
23 I will heap disasters upon them
    and shoot them down with my arrows.
