Ezekiel 23:14-17

14So she increased her obscene practices. And she saw men 1carved on the wall, images of the 2Chaldeans drawn in bright red,

15wearing belts around their waists, with flowing turbans on their heads, all of them looking like officers, 3like the 4Babylonians in Chaldea, the land of their birth.

16And 5when she saw them she 6lusted after them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea.

17And the 78Babylonians came to her to the bed of love and defiled her with their obscene practice. And when she had been defiled by them, 9she turned away from them in disgust.
