Ezekiel 16:16-22

16And of thy garmentsH899 thou didst takeH3947, and didst deckH6213 thy high placesH1116 with various coloursH2921, and didst play the harlotH2181 upon them: the like things shall not comeH935, neither shall it be so . 17Thou hast also takenH3947 thy fairH8597 jewelsH3627 of my goldH2091 and of my silverH3701, which I had givenH5414 thee, and hast madeH6213 to thyself imagesH6754 of menH2145, and hast committed harlotryH2181 with them,1 18And hast takenH3947 thy embroideredH7553 garmentsH899, and didst coverH3680 them: and thou hast setH5414 my oilH8081 and my incenseH7004 beforeH6440 them. 19My foodH3899 also which I gaveH5414 thee, fine flourH5560, and oilH8081, and honeyH1706, with which I fedH398 thee, thou hast even setH5414 beforeH6440 them for a sweetH5207 savourH7381: and thus it was, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.2 20Moreover thou hast takenH3947 thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323, whom thou hast borneH3205 to me, and these hast thou sacrificedH2076 to them to be devouredH398. Is this of thy harlotriesH8457 a small matterH4592,3 21That thou hast slainH7819 my childrenH1121, and deliveredH5414 them to cause them to pass throughH5674 the fire for them? 22And in all thy abominationsH8441 and thy harlotriesH8457 thou hast not rememberedH2142 the daysH3117 of thy youthH5271, when thou wast nakedH5903 and bareH6181, and wast pollutedH947 in thy bloodH1818.
