Psalm 78:58–64
They enraged Him with their high places and provoked His jealousy with their idols. / On hearing it, God was furious and rejected Israel completely. / He abandoned the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent He had pitched among men.
Isaiah 65:3–7
to a people who continually provoke Me to My face, sacrificing in the gardens and burning incense on altars of brick, / sitting among the graves, spending nights in secret places, eating the meat of pigs and polluted broth from their bowls. / They say, ‘Keep to yourself; do not come near me, for I am holier than you!’ Such people are smoke in My nostrils, a fire that burns all day long.
