'Provoke' in the Bible

But again I ask, didn't Israel understand? First Moses says, "I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; with a senseless nation I will provoke you to anger."

if somehow I could provoke my people to jealousy and save some of them.

Or are we trying to provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we really stronger than he is?

Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but raise them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

Fathers, do not provoke your children, so they will not become disheartened.
