New Testament

Ezekiel 16:10-19 American Standard Version (ASV)

10. I clothed thee also with broidered work, and shod thee with sealskin, and I girded thee about with fine linen, and covered thee with silk.

11. And I decked thee with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck.

12. And I put a ring upon thy nose, and ear-rings in thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.

13. Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil; and thou wast exceeding beautiful, and thou didst prosper unto royal estate.

14. And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty; for it was perfect, through my majesty which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord Jehovah.

15. But thou didst trust in thy beauty, and playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy whoredoms on every one that passed by; his it was.

16. And thou didst take of thy garments, and madest for thee high places decked with divers colors, and playedst the harlot upon them:

17. Thou didst also take thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and madest for thee images of men, and didst play the harlot with them;

18. and thou tookest thy broidered garments, and coveredst them, and didst set mine oil and mine incense before them.

19. My bread also which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou didst even set it before them for a sweet savor; and thus it was, saith the Lord Jehovah.
