Because the shadow thereof is good:
Therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom,
And your spouses shall commit adultery.

Nor your spouses when they commit adultery:
For themselves are separated with whores,
And they sacrifice with harlots:
Therefore the people that doth not understand shall fall.
