What does Jeremiah 44:8 mean?

Why are you making me angry by worshiping other gods in Egypt, where you've come to live? Do you really want to destroy yourselves and become a curse and a disgrace among all the nations on earth? Jeremiah 44:8 - Modern Text Bible

(God warns that their idolatry in Egypt will only bring more shame and disaster, not safety.)
