English Standard Version
Ezekiel 23:3-8
3They played the whore in Egypt; they played the whore in their youth; there their breasts were pressed and their virgin bosoms handled.
4Oholah was the name of the elder and Oholibah the name of her sister. They became mine, and they bore sons and daughters. As for their names, Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem.
5"Oholah played the whore while she was mine, and she lusted after her lovers the Assyrians, warriors
6clothed in purple, governors and commanders, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding on horses.
7She bestowed her whoring upon them, the choicest men of Assyria all of them, and she defiled herself with all the idols of everyone after whom she lusted.
8She did not give up her whoring that she had begun in Egypt; for in her youth men had lain with her and handled her virgin bosom and poured out their whoring lust upon her.
