*
As for your nativity ,
on the day you were born your navel cord was not cut ,
nor were you washed in water to cleanse you ;
you were not rubbed with salt nor wrapped in swaddling cloths .
*
No eye pitied you ,
to do any of these things for you ,
to have compassion on you ;
but you were thrown out into the open field ,
when you yourself were loathed on the day you were born .
* "
And when I passed by you and saw you struggling in your own blood ,
I said to you in your blood , "
Live !'
Yes ,
I said to you in your blood , "
Live !'
*
I made you thrive like a plant in the field ;
and you grew ,
matured ,
and became very beautiful .
Your breasts were formed ,
your hair grew ,
but you were naked and bare .
* "
When I passed by you again and looked upon you ,
indeed your time was the time of love ;
so I spread My wing over you and covered your nakedness .
Yes ,
I swore an oath to you and entered into a covenant with you ,
and you became Mine ,"
says the Lord GOD .
