Ezekiel 23:11-21
11Her sisterH269 OholibahH172 sawH7200 this, yet in her lustH5691 andH853 prostitutionH8457H2183 she was more depravedH7843 than her sisterH269. 12She too lustedH5689 afterH413 the AssyriansH1121H804—governorsH6346 and commandersH5461, warriorsH7138 dressedH3847 in splendorH4358, horsemenH6571 riding onH7392 steedsH5483, allH3605 desirableH2531 young menH970. 13And I sawH7200 thatH3588 she too had defiled herselfH2930; both of themH8147 had taken the sameH259 pathH1870.
14But Oholibah carriedH3254H413 her prostitution even furtherH8457. She sawH7200 the menH582 portrayedH2707 onH5921 the wallH7023, imagesH6754 of the ChaldeansH3778,1 engravedH2710 in vermilionH8350, 15wearingH2289 beltsH232 on their waistsH4975 and flowingH5628 turbansH2871 on their headsH7218; allH3605 of them lookedH4758 like officersH7991 of the BabyloniansH1121H894 in ChaldeaH3778,2 the landH776 of their birthH4138. 16At the sight of themH4758H5869, she lustedH5689 for themH5921 and sentH7971 messengersH4397 to themH413 in ChaldeaH3778. 17Then the BabyloniansH1121H894 cameH935 to herH413, to the bedH4904 of loveH1730, and in their lustH8457 they defiledH2930 herH853. But after she had been defiledH2930 by them, sheH5315 turned away in disgustH3363.
18When Oholibah openlyH1540 prostituted herselfH8457 and exposedH1540 her nakednessH6172, IH5315 turned away from herH5921 in disgustH3363, just asH834 IH5315 had turned awayH5361 fromH5921 her sisterH269. 19Yet she multipliedH7235 her promiscuityH8457, rememberingH2142 the daysH3117 of her youthH5271, whenH834 she had prostituted herselfH2181 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 20and lustedH5689 afterH5921 their loversH6370, whoseH834 genitalsH1320 were like thoseH1320 of donkeysH2543 and whose emissionH2231 was like thatH2231 of stallionsH5483. 21So you revisitedH6485 the indecencyH2154 of your youthH5271, when the EgyptiansH4714 caressedH6213 your bosomH1717 and pressedH4616 your youngH5271 breastsH7699.
