13And you adorned yourself with gold and silver, and your clothing was fine linen and costly fabric and beautiful finished cloth; you ate finely milled flour and honey and olive oil, and you became exceedingly beautiful; you were fit to be a queen.s 14And a name went out for you among the nations because of your beauty, for it was perfect because of my majesty that I bestowed on you,’ declarest the Lord Yahweh. 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.” 16And 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 17And you took your beautiful jewelryx 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. 18And you took the clothes of your beautiful finished cloth, and you covered them and my oil and my incense you set before them.z 19And my bread that I gave to you, finely milled flour and oil and honey with which I fed you, then you set it before thema as a pleasing odor,b and so it was,’ declaresc the Lord Yahweh.
