Ezekiel 16:6–14

⁶“I passed by you and saw you lying in your blood, and I said to you as you lay in your blood: Live! Yes, I said to you as you lay in your blood: Live! ^t7I made you thrive ^ulike plants of the field. ^vYou grew up and matured and became very beautiful. ^wYour breasts were formed and your hair grew, but you were stark naked.

⁸“Then I passed by you and saw you, and you were indeed at the age for love. So I spread the edge of My garment over you and covered your nakedness. ^xI pledged Myself to you, ^yentered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine.” ^zThis is the declaration of the Lord God. ⁹“I washed you with water, rinsed off your blood, and anointed you with oil. ¹⁰I clothed you in embroidered cloth and provided you with leather sandals. I also wrapped you in fine linen and covered you with silk. ¹¹I adorned you with jewelry, putting bracelets on your wrists and a chain around your neck. ¹²I put a ring in your nose, ^aearrings on your ears, and a beautiful tiara on your head. 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.
