rsv Ezekiel:23:4-11
rsv@Ezekiel:23:4 @ Oho'lah was the name of the elder and Ohol'ibah the name of her sister. They became mine, and they bore sons and daughters. As for their names, Oho'lah is Sama'ria, and Ohol'ibah is Jerusalem.
rsv@Ezekiel:23:5 @ "Oho'lah played the harlot while she was mine; and she doted on her lovers the Assyrians,
rsv@Ezekiel:23:6 @ warriors clothed in purple, governors and commanders, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding on horses.
rsv@Ezekiel:23:7 @ She bestowed her harlotries upon them, the choicest men of Assyria all of them; and she defiled herself with all the idols of every one on whom she doted.
rsv@Ezekiel:23:8 @ She did not give up her harlotry which she had practiced since her days in Egypt; for in her youth men had lain with her and handled her virgin bosom and poured out their lust upon her.
rsv@Ezekiel:23:9 @ Therefore I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the Assyrians, upon whom she doted.
rsv@Ezekiel:23:10 @ These uncovered her nakedness; they seized her sons and her daughters; and her they slew with the sword; and she became a byword among women, when judgment had been executed upon her.
rsv@Ezekiel:23:11 @ "Her sister Ohol'ibah saw this, yet she was more corrupt than she in her doting and in her harlotry, which was worse than that of her sister.
