Ezekiel 16:25-29

25On every street corner you defiled your beauty, offering your body to every passerby in an endless stream of prostitution.

26Then you added lustful Egypt to your lovers, provoking my anger with your increasing promiscuity.

27That is why I struck you with my fist and reduced your boundaries. I handed you over to your enemies, the Philistines, and even they were shocked by your lewd conduct.

28You have prostituted yourself with the Assyrians, too. It seems you can never find enough new lovers! And after your prostitution there, you still were not satisfied.

29You added to your lovers by embracing Babylonia, the land of merchants, but you still weren’t satisfied.
