Ezekiel 16:13–19

¹³So you were adorned with gold and silver, ^band your clothing was made of fine linen, silk, and embroidered cloth. You ate fine flour, honey, and oil. You became extremely beautiful and attained royalty. ¹⁴Your fame spread among the nations because of your beauty, for it was perfect through My splendor, ^cwhich I had bestowed on you.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.

¹⁵“But you were confident in your beauty and acted like a prostitute because of your fame. ^dYou lavished your sexual favors on everyone who passed by. ^eYour beauty became his. ^f16You took some of your garments and made colorful high places for yourself, and you engaged in prostitution on them. These places should not have been built, and this should never have happened! ^g17You also took your beautiful jewelry made from the gold and silver I had given you, ^hand you made male images so that you could engage in prostitution with them. ¹⁸Then you took your embroidered garments to cover them, and set My oil and incense before them. ¹⁹You also set before them as a pleasing aroma the food I gave you—the fine flour, oil, and honey that I fed you. ⁱThat is what happened.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.
