Ezekiel 23:22-35
22ThereforeH3651, OholibahH172, this is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069H2005 saysH559: ‘I will inciteH5782 your loversH157 against youH5921, thoseH834 from whomH5315 you turned away in disgustH5361. And I will bring themH935 against youH5921 from every sideH5439— 23the BabyloniansH1121H894 and allH3605 the ChaldeansH3778, the men of PekodH6489, ShoaH7772, and KoaH6970, and allH3605 the AssyriansH1121H804 with themH854—all desirableH2531 young menH970, governorsH6346 and commandersH5461, officersH7991 and men of renownH7121, mounted onH7392 horsesH5483.
24They will comeH935 against youH5921 with a hostH6951 of peoplesH5971,1 with weaponsH2021, chariotsH7393, and wagonsH1534. They will array themselvesH7760 against youH5921 on every sideH5439 with bucklerH6793 and shieldH4043 and helmetH6959. I will delegateH5414 judgmentH4941 to themH6440, and they will punish youH8199 according to their own standardsH4941. 25And I will setH5414 My jealous rageH7068 against you, and they will dealH6213 with youH854 in furyH2534. They will cut offH5493 your nosesH639 and earsH241, and your survivorsH319 will fallH5307 by the swordH2719. TheyH1992 will seizeH3947 your sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323, and your remnantH319 will be consumedH398 by fireH784. 26They will strip offH6584 your clothesH899 and takeH3947 your fineH8597 jewelryH3627. 27So I will put an endH7673 toH4480 your indecencyH2154 and prostitutionH2184, which began in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and you will notH3808 liftH5375 your eyesH5869 to themH413 or rememberH2142 EgyptH4714H3808 anymoreH5750.’
28ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559: ‘SurelyH2005 I will deliver youH5414 into the handsH3027 of those you hateH8130H3027, from whomH834 you turned awayH5315 in disgustH5361. 29They will treatH6213H854 you with hatredH8135, takeH3947 all for whichH3605 you have workedH3018, and leave youH5800 nakedH5903 and bareH6181, so that the shameH6172 of your prostitutionH2183 will be exposedH1540. Your indecencyH2154 and promiscuityH8457 30have broughtH6213 these thingsH428 upon you, because you have prostituted yourselfH2181 withH310 the nationsH1471H5921 and defiled yourselfH2930 with their idolsH1544. 31Because you have followedH1980 the pathH1870 of your sisterH269, I will putH5414 her cupH3563 into your handH3027.’
32This is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559:
35ThereforeH3651 this is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559: ‘BecauseH3282 you have forgottenH7911 MeH853 and have castH7993 MeH853 behindH310 your backH1458H1571, youH859 must bear the consequencesH5375 of your indecencyH2154 andH853 prostitutionH8457.’”
