Ezekiel 23:6-17

6who were clothed in purple, 1governors and officials, all of them handsome young men, horsemen riding on horses. 7She bestowed her 2obscene practices on them, all of whom were the choicest 3men of Assyria; and with all whom she lusted after, with all their idols she 4defiled herself. 8She did not abandon her obscene practices 5from the time in Egypt; for in her youth 6men had slept with her, and they handled her virgin breasts and poured out their obscene practice on her. 9Therefore, I handed her over to her 7lovers, to the 8Assyrians, after whom she lusted. 10They 9uncovered her nakedness; they took her sons and her daughters, but they killed her with the sword. So she became a 10subject of gossip among women, and they executed judgments on her.

11“Now her sister Oholibah saw this, yet she was 11more corrupt in her lust than she, and her obscene practices were 12more than the prostitution of her sister. 12She lusted after the 1314Assyrians, governors and officials, the ones near, opulently dressed, horsemen riding on horses, all of them handsome young men. 13And I saw that she had defiled herself; they both took 15the same way. 14So she increased her obscene practices. And she saw men 16carved on the wall, images of the 17Chaldeans drawn in bright red, 15wearing belts around their waists, with flowing turbans on their heads, all of them looking like officers, 18like the 19Babylonians in Chaldea, the land of their birth. 16And 20when she saw them she 21lusted after them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea. 17And the 2223Babylonians came to her to the bed of love and defiled her with their obscene practice. And when she had been defiled by them, 24she turned away from them in disgust.
