22 “Therefore, O Oholibah, thus says the Lord 1God, ‘Behold I will arouse your lovers against you, from whom 2you were alienated, and I will bring them against you from every side:

27 ‘Thus aI will make your lewdness and your harlotry brought from the land of Egypt to cease from you, so that you will not lift up your eyes to them or remember Egypt anymore.’

28 “For thus says the Lord God, ‘Behold, I will give you into the hand of those whom you ahate, into the hand of those from whom 1you were alienated.
