21. They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

23. I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them.
23. Cumulabo super eos mala, sagittas meas consumam in eis.
