Ezek. 23:2‑21• 2{i}Son of man, there were two women, daughters of one mother.{/i}
3{i}And they committed whoredom in Egypt; they committed whoredom in their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there were handled the teats of their virginity.{/i}
4{i}And their names were Oholah the elder, and Oholibah her sister;{/i} they were mine, and they begat sons and daughters. {i}As for their names: Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem Oholibah.{/i}
5{i}And Oholah played the harlot when she was mine; and she lusted after her lovers, after the Assyrians her neighbours,{/i}
6{i}clothed with blue, governors and rulers, all of them attractive young men, horsemen riding upon horses.{/i}
7{i}And she bestowed her whoredoms upon them, all of them the choice of the children of Asshur; and with all after whom she lusted, with all their idols she defiled herself.{/i}
8{i}Neither left she her whoredoms brought from Egypt; for in her youth they had lain with her, and had handled the breasts of her virginity, and poured their fornication upon her.{/i}
9{i}Therefore I gave her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the children of Asshur, after whom she lusted.{/i}
10{i}These discovered her nakedness, they took her sons and her daughters, and slew her with the sword; and she became a name among women; and they executed judgment upon her.{/i}
11{i}And her sister Oholibah saw this, and{/i} was more corrupt in her inordinate love than {i}she, and in her fornications more than{/i} {i}the whoredoms of her sister.{/i}
12{i}She lusted after the children of Asshur her neighbours, governors and rulers, clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding upon horses, all of them attractive young men.{/i}
13Then I saw that she was defiled, that they both took one way.
14{i}And she increased her fornications; for she saw men portrayed upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans portrayed with vermilion,{/i}
15{i}girded with girdles upon their loins, with flowing turbans on their heads, all of them captains in appearance, after the likeness of the children of Babylon, of Chaldea, the land of their nativity.{/i}
16{i}And as soon as she saw them with her eyes, she lusted after them, and sent messengers unto them into Chaldea.{/i}
17{i}And the children of Babylon came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their fornication; she too defiled herself with them, and her soul was alienated from them.{/i}
18{i}And she discovered her whoredoms, and discovered her nakedness; and{/i} my mind was alienated from her, as my mind was alienated from her sister.
19{i}Yet she multiplied her whoredoms, calling to remembrance the days of her youth, wherein she played the harlot in the land of Egypt;{/i}
20{i}and she lusted after their paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose issue is as the issue of horses.{/i}
21{i}And thou didst look back to the lewdness of thy youth, in the handling of thy teats by the Egyptians, for the breasts of thy youth.{/i}
