⁸“ ‘Later I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that you were old enough for love, I spread the corner of my garment^l over you and covered your naked body. I gave you my solemn oath and entered into a covenant^m with you, declares the Sovereign Lord, and you became mine.ⁿ

⁹“ ‘I bathed you with water and washed^o the blood from you and put ointments on you. ¹⁰I clothed you with an embroidered^p dress and put sandals of fine leather on you. I dressed you in fine linen^q and covered you with costly garments.^r ¹¹I adorned you with jewelry:^s I put bracelets^t on your arms and a necklace^u around your neck, ¹²and I put a ring on your nose,^v earrings^w on your ears and a beautiful crown^x on your head.^y ¹³So you were adorned with gold and silver; your clothes^z were of fine linen and costly fabric and embroidered cloth. Your food was honey, olive oil^a and the finest flour. You became very beautiful and rose to be a queen.^b ¹⁴And your fame^c spread among the nations on account of your beauty,^d because the splendor I had given you made your beauty perfect, declares the Sovereign Lord.^e
