20. And you took your sons and your daughters, whom you bore for me, and you immolated them to be devoured. Is your fornication a small matter?
21. You have immolated my sons, and you have consecrated and delivered my sons to them.
22. And after all your abominations and fornications, you have not remembered the days of your youth, when you were naked and full of shame, wallowing in your own blood.
23. And it happened that, after all your wickedness, (woe, woe to you, says the Lord God)
24. you built for yourself a brothel, and you made for yourself a place of prostitution in every street.
