15 ‘And you trusted in your beauty, and you prostituted on account of your name, and you poured out your fornication on every one passing by, saying, “Let it be his.” 16 And you took from your clothes and you made for yourself colorfulu shrines, and you prostituted on them; ⌊this had not happened before⌋,v and it ⌊will not continue to happen⌋.w 17 And you took ⌊your beautiful jewelry⌋x made from my gold and from my silver that I had given to you, and you made for yourself ⌊male images⌋,y and you prostituted with them. 18 And you took the clothes of your beautiful finished cloth, and you covered them and my oil and my incense you set ⌊before them⌋.z 19 And my bread that I gave to you, finely milled flour and oil and honey with which I fed you, then you set it ⌊before them⌋a as a ⌊pleasing odor⌋,b and so it was,’ ⌊declares⌋c the Lord Yahweh. 20 ‘And you took your sons and your daughters whom you had borne for me, and you sacrificed them to them to be eaten,d ⌊as if your whorings were not enough⌋.e 21 And you slaughtered my children, and you gave them ⌊to be sacrificed to them⌋.f 22 And in all of your detestable things and your fornication you did not remember the days of your childhood ⌊when you were naked and bare⌋,g when you were kicking about in your blood.

23 “ ‘And then after all of your evil! Woe, woe, to you!’ ⌊declares⌋h the Lord Yahweh. 24 ‘And then you built for yourself a mound, and you made for yourself a high place in every public square. 25 At the head of every street you built your high place and you disgraced your beauty and you spread your feet for every passerby, and you increased your whoring. 26 And you prostituted with the ⌊Egyptians⌋,i your neighbors ⌊who were sexually aroused⌋,j and you increased your fornication to provoke me. 27 And look! I stretched out my hand against you, and I reduced your portion, and I gave you intok the desire of your haters, the daughters of the Philistines, who were ashamed because of your lewd ⌊conduct⌋.l 28 And you prostituted with the ⌊Assyrians⌋m on account of ⌊your insatiable lust⌋,n and you prostituted with them, and still you were not satisfied. 29 And you increased your fornication to the land of traders,o to Chaldea, and even with this you were not satisfied. 30 How hot with fever was your heart!’ ⌊declares⌋p the Lord Yahweh. ‘⌊When you did⌋q all of these actions ⌊of a headstrong female prostitute⌋,r 31 ⌊when you built⌋s your mound at the head of every street and your high place you made on every street, yett you wereu not like a prostitute, as you were scorning your harlot’s wages. 32 O, adulterous woman! In the place of her husband she received strangers. 33 To all prostitutes they give a fee, but you, you gave your gifts to all of your lovers, and you bribed them to come to you from all around in your whorings! 34 And it was the opposite with you from the other women in your whorings; ⌊no one solicited you as a prostitute⌋.v ⌊You gave⌋w a harlot’s wages, and a harlot’s wages were not given to you, and so it was just the opposite.

35 “ ‘Therefore, prostitute, hear the word of Yahweh. 36 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Because of the pouring out of your shame and because your nakedness was revealed in your whoring with your lovers, and on account of all of the idols of your detestable things, and according to the blood of your children whom you gave to them, 37 therefore, look! I am gathering all of your lovers ⌊whom you were pleased about⌋,x and all of whom you loved in addition to all of whom you hated, and I will gather them against you from ⌊everywhere⌋,y and I will uncover your nakedness to them, and they will see all of your nakedness. 38 And I will judge you with the judgment of women committing adultery and shedding blood, and I will give you the blood of rage and jealousy. 39 And I will give you into their hand, and they will demolish your mound, and they will break down your high places, and they will strip you of your clothes, and they will take ⌊your beautiful jewelry⌋,z and they will leave you naked and bare. 40 And they will bring up against you a crowd, and they will stone you with stones,a and they will cut you to pieces with their swords. 41 And they will burn your houses with fire, and they will execute against you judgments ⌊before⌋b many women, and I will stop you from prostitution, and also a harlot’s wages you will not givec again. 42 And I will satisfy my rage on you, and my jealousy will turn away from you, and I will be calm, and I will not be angry any longer. 43 ⌊Because⌋d you did not remembere the days of your childhood and you made me angry with all of these. And in turn I, look, I will return your way upon your head,’ ⌊declares⌋f the Lord Yahweh, ‘and didg you not do wickednessh in addition to all of your detestable things?
