Ezekiel 16:13-16
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. 16You took some of your clothes, made for yourself high places of various colors and played the harlot on them, 8which should never come about nor happen.
