Ezekiel 16:13-15

13Thus you were adorned with 1gold and silver, and your dress was of fine linen, silk and embroidered cloth. You ate fine flour, honey and oil; so you were exceedingly beautiful and advanced to 2royalty. 14Then your 3fame went forth among the nations on account of your beauty, for it was 4perfect because of My splendor which I bestowed on you,” declares the Lord God.

15“But you 5trusted in your beauty and 6played the harlot because of your fame, and you poured out your harlotries on every passer-by 7who might be willing.
