Ezekiel 16:13–19

¹³Thus you were adorned with gold and silver, and your clothing was of fine linen, silk, and embroidered cloth. ^lYou ate pastry of fine flour, honey, and oil. You were exceedingly ^mbeautiful, and succeeded to royalty. ¹⁴ⁿYour fame went out among the nations because of your beauty, for it was perfect through My splendor which I had bestowed on you,” says the Lord God.

Jerusalem’s Harlotry

^15o“But you trusted in your own beauty, ^pplayed the harlot because of your fame, and poured out your harlotry on everyone passing by who would have it. ^16qYou took some of your garments and adorned multicolored ⁷high places for yourself, and played the harlot on them. Such things should not happen, nor be. ¹⁷You have also taken your beautiful jewelry from My gold and My silver, which I had given you, and made for yourself male images and played the harlot with them. ¹⁸You took your embroidered garments and covered them, and you set My oil and My incense before them. ¹⁹Also ^rMy food which I gave you—the pastry of fine flour, oil, and honey which I fed you—you set it before them as ⁸sweet incense; and so it was,” says the Lord God.
