Ezekiel 16:23-35
23And it came to pass after all thy wickednessH7451 (woeH188, woeH188 unto thee! saith the LordH136 Jehovah),
24that thou didst also buildH1129 unto thee a placeH7413 of debauchery, and didst makeH6213 thee a highH7413 placeH7413 in every street:
25thou didst buildH1129 thy highH7413 placeH7413 at every headH7218 of the wayH1870, and madest thy beautyH3308 to be abhorredH8581, and thou didst open thy feetH7272 to every one that passedH5674 by, and multiplyH7235 thy whoredom.
26And thou didst commit fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, great of fleshH1320; and didst multiplyH7235 thy whoredom to provokeH3707 me to angerH3707.
27And behold, I stretchedH5186 out my handH3027 over thee, and diminishedH1639 thine appointed portionH2706; and I gaveH5414 thee over unto the will of them that hateH8130 thee, the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430, who were confounded at thy lewd wayH1870.
28And thou didst commit fornication with the Assyrians, because thou wast insatiable; yea, thou didst commit fornication with them, and yet couldest not be satisfiedH7646.
29And thou didst multiplyH7235 thy whoredom with the landH776 of merchants, 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 a whorish womanH802, under no restraint;
31in that thou buildest thy place of debauchery at the headH7218 of every wayH1870, and makest thy highH7413 place in every street! And thou hast not beenH1961 as a harlot, in that thou scornest reward,
32O adulterousH5003 wifeH802, that taketh strangersH2114 instead of her husbandH376.
33They giveH5414 rewards to all harlots; but thou gavest thy rewards to all thy loversH157, and rewardedst them, that they might comeH935 unto thee on every side for thy whoredoms.
34And in thee isH1961 the contrary from [other] womenH802, in thy whoredoms, in that none followeth thee to commit fornication; and whereas thou givest a reward, and no reward isH1961 givenH5414 unto thee, so art thou contrary.
35ThereforeH3651, O harlot, hearH8085 the wordH1697 of Jehovah.
