Bible. Ezekiel
26:016:028 Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians, because
thou wast unsatiable; yea, thou hast played the harlot with
them, and yet couldest not be satisfied.
26:016:029 Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the land of
Canaan unto Chaldea; and yet thou wast not satisfied
therewith.
26:016:030 How weak is thine heart, saith the LORD GOD, seeing thou doest
all these things, the work of an imperious whorish woman;
26:016:031 In that thou buildest thine eminent place in the head of every
way, and makest thine high place in every street; and hast not
been as an harlot, in that thou scornest hire;
26:016:032 But as a wife that committeth adultery, which taketh strangers
instead of her husband!
26:016:033 They give gifts to all whores: but thou givest thy gifts to
all thy lovers, and hirest them, that they may come unto thee
on every side for thy whoredom.
26:016:034 And the contrary is in thee from other women in thy whoredoms,
whereas none followeth thee to commit whoredoms: and in that
thou givest a reward, and no reward is given unto thee,
therefore thou art contrary.
26:016:035 Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the LORD:
26:016:036 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy filthiness was poured
out, and thy nakedness discovered through thy whoredoms with
thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations, and by
the blood of thy children, which thou didst give unto them;
26:016:037 Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou
hast taken pleasure, and all them that thou hast loved, with
all them that thou hast hated; I will even gather them round
about against thee, and will discover thy nakedness unto them,
that they may see all thy nakedness.
26:016:038 And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and shed
blood are judged; and I will give thee blood in fury and
jealousy.
26:016:039 And I will also give thee into their hand, and they shall
throw down thine eminent place, and shall break down thy high
places: they shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall
take thy fair jewels, and leave thee naked and bare.
26:016:040 They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they
shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with
their swords.
26:016:041 And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and execute
judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and I will
cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou also
shalt give no hire any more.
26:016:042 So will I make my fury toward thee to rest, and my jealousy
shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no
more angry.
