* The LORD said moreover unto me ; Son of man , wilt thou judge Aholah and Aholibah ? yea , declare unto them their abominations tow #ebah #; * That they have committed adultery , and blood is in their hands , and with their idols have they committed adultery , and have also caused their sons , whom they bare unto me , to pass for them through the fire , to devour them . * Moreover this they have done unto me : they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day , and have profaned my sabbaths . * For when they had slain their children to their idols , then they came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it ; and , lo , thus have they done in the midst of mine house . * And furthermore , that ye have sent for men to come from far , unto whom a messenger was sent ; and , lo , they came : for whom thou didst wash thyself , paintedst thy eyes , and deckedst thyself with ornaments , * And satest upon a stately bed , and a table prepared before it , whereupon thou hast set mine incense and mine oil . * And a voice of a multitude being at ease was with her : and with the men of the common sort rob # were brought Sabeans C @ba # from the wilderness , which put bracelets upon their hands , and beautiful crowns upon their heads ro #sh #. * Then said I unto her that was old in adulteries ni #uph #, Will they now commit whoredoms with her , and she with them ? * Yet they went in unto her , as they go in unto a woman that playeth the harlot : so went they in unto Aholah and unto Aholibah , the lewd women . * And the righteous men , they shall judge them after the manner of adulteresses , and after the manner of women that shed blood ; because they are adulteresses , and blood is in their hands . * For thus saith the Lord GOD ; I will bring up a company upon them , and will give them to be removed and spoiled . * And the company shall stone them with stones , and dispatch them with their swords ; they shall slay their sons and their daughters , and burn up their houses with fire . * Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land , that all women may be taught not to do after your lewdness .
