* And say , Thus saith the Lord GOD unto Jerusalem ; Thy birth and thy nativity is of the land of Canaan K @na #aniy #; thy father was an Amorite , and thy mother an Hittite . * And as for thy nativity , in the day thou wast born thy navel was not cut , neither wast thou washed in water to supple thee ; thou wast not salted at all , nor swaddled at all . * None eye pitied thee , to do any of these unto thee , to have compassion upon thee ; but thou wast cast out in the open field , to the lothing of thy person , in the day that thou wast born . * And when I passed by thee , and saw thee polluted in thine own blood , I said unto thee when thou wast in thy blood , Live ; yea , I said unto thee when thou wast in thy blood , Live . * I have caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field , and thou hast increased and waxen great , and thou art come to excellent ornaments : thy breasts are fashioned , and thine hair is grown , whereas thou wast naked and bare . * Now when I passed by thee , and looked upon thee , behold , thy time was the time of love ; and I spread my skirt over thee , and covered thy nakedness : yea , I sware unto thee , and entered into a covenant with thee , saith the Lord GOD , and thou becamest mine . * Then washed I thee with water ; yea , I throughly washed away thy blood from thee , and I anointed thee with oil . * I clothed thee also with broidered work , and shod thee with badgers skin , and I girded thee about with fine linen , and I covered thee with silk . * I decked thee also with ornaments , and I put bracelets upon thy hands , and a chain on thy neck . * And I put a jewel on thy forehead , and earrings in thine ears , and a beautiful crown upon thine head ro #sh #. * Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver ; and thy raiment was of fine linen , and silk , and broidered work ; thou didst eat fine flour , and honey , and oil : and thou wast exceeding beautiful , and thou didst prosper into a kingdom .
