They have made me jealous with what is no god; they have provoked me to anger with their idols. So I will make them jealous with those who are no people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation. (Deuteronomy 32:21 ESV)
But I ask, did Israel not understand? First Moses says, "I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; with a foolish nation I will make you angry." (Romans 10:19 ESV)
Time and again, we see the Americans trying to kill themselves with some stupid act. Then they survived. It is all in the Bible. The British and the Americans are the foolish nation that God used to glorify Himself.
But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God. (1 Corinthians 1:27-29 ESV)
Thus the foolish built the world's largest empire and we had to speak their language. Blessed are the foolish, because they glorify God.
