Ezekiel 23:11–20

¹¹And ^uwhen ^aher sister Aholibah saw this, ^v†she was more corrupt in ^lher inordinate love than she, and in her whoredoms ^†more than her sister in her whoredoms. ^12lShe doted upon ^wthe Assyrians her neighbours, ⁿcaptains and rulers ^xclothed most gorgeously, ⁿhorsemen riding upon horses, ⁿall of them desirable young men. ¹³Then I saw that she was defiled, that they took both one way, ¹⁴And that she increased her whoredoms: for when she saw men ^ypourtrayed upon the wall, ^zthe images of ^athe Chaldeans pourtrayed ^bwith vermilion, ¹⁵Girded with girdles upon their loins, exceeding in dyed attire upon their heads, all of them princes to look to, after the manner of the Babylonians ^aof Chaldea, the land of their nativity: ¹⁶And ^†as soon as she saw them with her eyes, ^hshe doted upon them, and ^csent messengers unto them into ^aChaldea. ¹⁷And the ^†Babylonians came to her into ^ccthe bed of love, and they defiled her with their whoredom, and she was polluted with them, and ^dher mind was ^†alienated from them. ¹⁸So she discovered her whoredoms, and discovered her nakedness: then ^dmy mind was alienated from her, like as my mind was alienated from her sister. ¹⁹Yet ^eshe multiplied her whoredoms, in calling to remembrance ^fthe days of her youth, wherein she had played the harlot ^gin the land of Egypt. ²⁰For ^hshe doted upon their paramours, ^giwhose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and ⁱwhose issue is like the issue of horses.
