Ezekiel 23:14-17

14And that she increasedH3254 her whoredomsH8457: for when she sawH7200 menH582 pourtrayedH2707 upon the wallH7023, the imagesH6754 of the ChaldeansH3778 pourtrayedH2710 with vermilionH8350,

15GirdedH2289 with girdlesH232 upon their loinsH4975, exceedingH5628 in dyed attireH2871 upon their headsH7218, all of them princesH7991 to look toH4758, after the mannerH1823 of the BabyloniansH894H1121 of ChaldeaH3778, the landH776 of their nativityH4138:

16And as soon as she sawH4758 them with her eyesH5869, she dotedH5689 upon them, and sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto them into ChaldeaH3778.1

17And the BabyloniansH894H1121 cameH935 to her into the bedH4904 of loveH1730, and they defiledH2930 her with their whoredomH8457, and she was pollutedH2930 with them, and her mindH5315 was alienatedH3363 from them.23
