Ezekiel 16:23-34

23“Then it came about after all your wickedness (‘Woe, woe to you!’ declares the Lord God), 24that you built yourself a 1shrine and made yourself a 2high place in every public square. 25You built yourself a high place at the beginning of 3every street and made your beauty abominable, and you spread your legs to every passer-by and multiplied your obscene practice. 26You also committed prostitution with the Egyptians, your 4lustful neighbors, and multiplied your obscene practice to 5provoke Me to anger. 27So behold, I have stretched out My hand against you and cut back your rations. And I turned you over to the desire of those who hate you, the 6daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of your outrageous conduct. 28Moreover, you committed prostitution with the 7Assyrians because you were not satisfied; you committed prostitution with them and still were not satisfied. 29You also multiplied your obscene practice with the land of merchants, Chaldea; yet even with this you were not satisfied.”’”

30“How 8feverish is your heart,” declares the Lord God, “while you do all these things, the action of a 910bold prostitute! 31When you built your shrine at the beginning of every street and made your high place in every public square, in 11spurning a prostitute’s fee, you were not like a prostitute. 32You adulteress wife, who takes strangers instead of her husband! 33Men give gifts to all prostitutes, but you 12give your gifts to all your lovers and lavish favors on them so that they will come to you from every direction for your obscene practices. 34So it is the opposite for you from those women in your obscene practices, in that you are not approached for prostitution, and in the fact that you pay a prostitute’s fee, and no fee is paid to you; so you are the opposite.”
