Jeremiah 32:29

And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come and set fire on this city, and burn it with the houses, upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger.

The Chaldeans ... shall ... burn it with the houses upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal

- retribution in kind. They burnt incense to Baal on the houses, so the houses shall be burnt (). The god of fire was the object of their worship; so fire shall be the instrument of their punishment.

To provoke me - indicating the design, not merely: the event. They seemed to court God's "anger," and purposely to "provoke" Him.
