16 They made him jealous with strange gods;
with detestable things they provoked him.
17 They sacrificed to the demons, not God,
to gods whomHebrew "them" they had not known,
new gods whoHebrew "they," understood in the verb form came from recent times;
their ancestors had not known them.Literally "their fathers not knew them"

and you forgot God, the one giving you birth.
