Isaiah 57:7-9

7Upon a loftyH1364 and highH5375 mountainH2022 hast thou setH7760 thy bedH4904: even thither wentest thou upH5927 to offerH2076 sacrificeH2077.

8BehindH310 the doorsH1817 also and the postsH4201 hast thou set upH7760 thy remembranceH2146: for thou hast discoveredH1540 thyself to another than me, and art gone upH5927; thou hast enlargedH7337 thy bedH4904, and madeH3772 thee a covenant with them; thou lovedstH157 their bedH4904 whereH3027 thou sawestH2372 it.12

9And thou wentestH7788 to the kingH4428 with ointmentH8081, and didst increaseH7235 thy perfumesH7547, and didst sendH7971 thy messengersH6735 far offH7350, and didst debaseH8213 thyself even unto hellH7585.3
