Ezekiel 16:23-34
23And it is come to pass after all thy wickednessH7451 (woeH188, woeH188 unto thee! saith the LordH136 Jehovah), 24that thou hast builtH1129 unto thee a vaulted placeH7413, and hast madeH6213 thee a lofty placeH7413 in every street. 25Thou hast builtH1129 thy lofty placeH7413 at the headH7218 of every wayH1870, and hast made thy beautyH3308 an abomination, and hast opened thy feetH7272 to every one that passedH5674 by, and multipliedH7235 thy whoredom. 26Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians, thy neighborsH7934, great of fleshH1320; and hast multipliedH7235 thy whoredom, to provokeH3707 me to angerH3707. 27Behold therefore, I have stretchedH5186 out my handH3027 over thee, and have diminishedH1639 thine ordinary food, and delivered thee unto the will of them that hateH8130 thee, the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430, that are ashamedH3637 of thy lewd wayH1870. 28Thou hast playedH2181 the harlot alsoH1571 with the Assyrians, because thou wast insatiable; yea, thou hast playedH2181 the harlot with them, and yet thou wast not satisfiedH7646. 29Thou hast moreover multipliedH7235 thy whoredom unto the landH776 of traffic, unto ChaldeaH3778; and yet thou wast not satisfiedH7646 herewith.
30HowH4100 weak is thy heartH3826, saith the LordH136 Jehovah, seeing thou doest all these thingsH428, the workH4639 of an impudent harlot; 31in that thou buildest thy vaulted place at the headH7218 of every wayH1870, and makest thy lofty place in every street, and hast not beenH1961 as a harlot, in that thou scornest hireH868. 32A wifeH802 that committeth adulteryH5003! that taketh strangersH2114 instead of her husbandH376! 33They giveH5414 gifts to all harlots; but thou givest thy gifts to all thy loversH157, and bribest them, that they may comeH935 unto thee on every side for thy whoredoms. 34And thou art different from other womenH802 in thy whoredoms, in that none followeth thee to playH2181 the harlot; and whereas thou givest hireH868, and no hireH868 isH1961 givenH5414 unto thee, therefore thou art different.
