Ezekiel 23:34-40 Common English Bible (CEB)

34. Drink it, drain it dry, break it into pieces,and tear off your breasts, for I have spoken.This is what the Lord God says.

35. So now the Lord God proclaims: Because you forgot me and turned your back on me, you alone will bear the consequences of your betrayal and promiscuities.

36. Then the Lord said to me, Human one, judge Oholah and Oholibah, and make known their detestable practices to them.

37. They committed adultery, so now blood is on their hands. They committed adultery with their idols, and they even took their children whom they had borne to me and offered them up to be consumed for them.

38. They also did this to me: On the same day, they made my sanctuary unclean and made my sabbaths impure.

39. When they slaughtered their children for their idols, they came into my sanctuary and made it impure on that very same day. They actually did this inside my temple.

40. They even sent for men who came from a great distance. No sooner than a messenger was sent, they arrived! For these men you bathed, you painted your eyes, and you put on your jewelry.
