Ezekiel:16:22-43
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And in all thine abominations and thy whoredoms thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth na #
uwr #,
when thou wast naked and bare ,
and wast polluted in thy blood .
*
And it came to pass after all thy wickedness , (
woe ,
woe unto thee !
saith the Lord GOD ; )
*
That thou hast also built unto thee an eminent place ,
and hast made thee an high place in every street .
*
Thou hast built thy high place at every head of the way ,
and hast made thy beauty to be abhorred ,
and hast opened thy feet to every one that passed by ,
and multiplied thy whoredoms .
*
Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians ben #
thy neighbours ,
great of flesh ;
and hast increased thy whoredoms ,
to provoke me to anger .
*
Behold ,
therefore I have stretched out my hand over thee ,
and have diminished thine ordinary food ,
and delivered thee unto the will of them that hate thee ,
the daughters of the Philistines ,
which are ashamed of thy lewd way .
*
Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians ben #,
because thou wast unsatiable ;
yea ,
thou hast played the harlot with them ,
and yet couldest not be satisfied sob #
ah #.
*
Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the land of Canaan unto Chaldea ;
and yet thou wast not satisfied herewith zo #
th #.
*
How weak is thine heart ,
saith the Lord GOD ,
seeing thou doest all these things ,
the work of an imperious whorish woman ;
*
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 ;
*
But as a wife that committeth adultery ,
which taketh strangers instead of her husband !
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
Wherefore ,
O harlot ,
hear the word of the LORD :
*
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 tow #
ebah #,
and by the blood of thy children ,
which thou didst give unto them ;
*
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 .
*
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 qin #
ah #.
*
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 .
*
They shall also bring up a company against thee ,
and they shall stone thee with stones ,
and thrust thee through with their swords .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth na #
uwr #,
but hast fretted me in all these things ;
behold ,
therefore I also will recompense thy way upon thine head ro #
sh #,
saith the Lord GOD :
and thou shalt not commit this lewdness above all thine abominations tow #
ebah #.
