Ezekiel 16:1-8
1Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to meH413, sayingH559, 2“SonH1121 of manH120, confrontH3045 JerusalemH3389 with herH853 abominationsH8441 3and tellH559 her that this is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559 to JerusalemH3389: Your originH4351 and your birthH4138 were in the landH776 of the CanaanitesH3669. Your fatherH1 was an AmoriteH567 and your motherH517 a HittiteH2850. 4On the dayH3117 of your birthH4138 your cordH8270 was notH3808 cutH3772, norH3808 were you washedH7364 with waterH4325 for cleansingH4935. You were notH3808 rubbed with saltH4414 or wrapped in clothsH2853H3808. 5NoH3808 one cared enoughH2347H5869 for youH5921 to doH6213 even oneH259 of these thingsH428 out of compassionH2550 for youH5921. Instead, you were thrown outH7993 intoH413 the openH6440 fieldH7704, because youH5315 were despisedH1604 on the dayH3117 of your birthH3205.
6Then I passedH5674 byH5921 and sawH7200 you wallowingH947 in your bloodH1818, and as you lay there in your bloodH1818 I saidH559 to you, ‘LiveH2421!’ There I saidH559 to you, ‘LiveH2421!’ 7I madeH5414 you thriveH7233 like a plantH6780 of the fieldH7704. You grew upH7235 and maturedH1431 and becameH935H5716 very beautifulH5716. Your breastsH7699 were formedH3559 and your hairH8181 grewH6779, but youH859 were nakedH5903 and bareH6181.
8Then I passedH5674 byH5921 and saw youH7200, and you were indeedH2009 old enoughH6256 for loveH1730. So I spreadH6566 My cloakH3671 over youH5921 and coveredH3680 your nakednessH6172. I pledged MyselfH7650 to you, enteredH935 into a covenantH1285 with youH854, and you becameH1961 Mine, declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
