Ezekiel 23:11–21

11 “And though Oholibah her sister saw, yet in her lust she behaved more corruptly than her,k and her whoring was more than the prostitution of her sister. 12 She lusted after the Assyrians,l governors and prefects, warriorsm clothed inn perfection,o expert horsemen,p all of them handsome young men.q 13 And I saw that she was defiled; they had both taken the same path!r 14 And she increased her whorings, and she saw men carveds on the wall, images of Chaldeanst carved in red, 15 belted with a belt atu their waist with turbans on their heads, all of them giving the appearance of adjutants,v the imagew of the Babylonians;x Chaldea was the land of their birth. 16 And she lusted for them when her eyes saw them,y and she sent messengers to them at Chaldea. 17 And so the Babyloniansz came to her for the bed of lovemaking; and they defiled her with their fornication, and she was defiled by them, and she turned from them. 18 And she revealed her whorings, and she revealed her nakedness, and so I turned from her just asa I turned from her sister. 19 Yetb she increased her whorings, recallingc the days of her childhood when she was prostitutedd in the land of Egypt. 20 And she lusted after her male lovers whose genitalia were the genitalia of male donkeys and their seminal emission was the seminal emission of horses. 21 And you longed after the obscene conduct of your youth when your bosom was caressed by Egypt, fondling your young breasts.
