What does 2 Kings 22:17 mean?

That’s because they’ve abandoned me and burned incense to other gods, making me angry with all their idols. My anger is burning against this place, and it won’t be put out. 2 Kings 22:17 - Modern Text Bible

(The reason for the coming disaster is the people’s long-standing idolatry and rejection of God. God’s anger is described as something that can’t be stopped now.)
