13You had ornaments of gold and silver, and you always wore clothes of embroidered linen and silk. You ate bread made from the best flour, and had honey and olive oil to eat. Your beauty was dazzling, and you became a queen. 14You became famous in every nation for your perfect beauty, because I was the one who made you so lovely.” This is what the Sovereign Lord says.

15“But you took advantage of your beauty and fame to sleep with everyone who came along.c 16You used some of your clothes to decorate your places of worship, and just like a prostitute,d you gave yourself to everyone. 17You took the silver and gold jewellery that I had given you, used it to make male images, and committed adultery with them. 18You took the embroidered clothes I gave you and put them on the images, and you offered to the images the olive oil and incense I had given you. 19I gave you food—the best flour, olive oil, and honey—but you offered it as a sacrifice to win the favour of idols.” This is what the Sovereign Lord says.
