The closest to the verse you are describing is possibly the one in 2 Cor.11:2 which states...."for I am jealous for you with godly jealousy . For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ." This is the Apostle Paul speaking to the church at Corinth. He is telling them that the church (all true believers in Jesus) is the Bride of Christ and he wants to present her, the church, to Christ as a pure, spotless bride.
The word jealous is "zelos" signifying eagerness, enthusiasm, an intense desire, etc., which refers to both the idea of zeal and jealousy, not necessarily jealousy as we express it.
There are several similar verses throughout scripture where God Himself states "He is jealous for ........" so your question could be one of many verses, but I have chosen this one as the closet answer to your question.
