40“FurthermoreH637, 1they have evenH3588 sentH7971 for menH376 who comeH935 from a greatH4801 distanceH4801, to whomH834 a messengerH4397 was sentH7971; and beholdH2009, they cameH935--for whomH834 you bathedH7364, 2putH3583 makeupH3583 on your eyesH5869, and 3adornedH5710 yourselvesH5710 with jewelryH5716; 41and you satH3427 on a splendidH3519 4couchH4296 with a 5tableH7979 arrangedH6186 in frontH6440 of it on which you had setH7760 My 6incenseH7004 and My 7oilH8081. 42And the soundH6963 of a 89carefreeH7961 multitudeH1995 was with her; and 10heavyH5433 drinkersH5433 were broughtH935 from the wildernessH4057 with peopleH376 from the multitudeH7230 of humanityH120. And they putH5414 11braceletsH6781 on 12the wristsH3027 of the women and beautifulH8597 crownsH5850 on their headsH7218.
43“Then I saidH559 concerning her who was 13wornH1087 outH1087 by adulteriesH5004, ‘14Will they nowH6258 commitH2181 adulteryH2181 with her when she is like this?’ 4415But they wentH935 inH935 to her as they would goH935 inH935 to a prostituteH2181. ThisH3651 isH3651 howH3651 they wentH935 inH935 to OholahH170 and to OholibahH172, the lewdH2154 womenH802.
