'Provocation' in the Bible

Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and which he made Israel sin, by his provocation wherewith he provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger.

And will make thine house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked me to anger, and made Israel to sin.

Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation?

Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

For this city hath been to me as a provocation of mine anger and of my fury from the day that they built it even unto this day; that I should remove it from before my face,

For when I had brought them into the land, for the which I lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every high hill, and all the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering: there also they made their sweet savour, and poured out there their drink offerings.

Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
