Ezechiel 23:41-48 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

41. Thou sattest on a very fine bed, and a table was decked before thee: whereupon thou didst set my incense, and my ointment.

42. And there was in her the voice of a multitude rejoicing: and to some that were brought of the multitude of men, and that came from the desert, they put bracelets on their hands, and beautiful crowns on their heads.

43. And I said to her that was worn out in her adulteries: Now will this woman still continue in her fornication.

44. And they went in to her, as to a harlot: so went they in unto Oolla, and Ooliba, wicked women.

45. They therefore are k just men: these shall judge them as adulteresses are judged, and as shedders of blood are judged: because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.

46. For thus saith the Lord God: Bring a multitude upon them, and deliver them over to tumult and rapine:

47. And lee the people stone them with stones, and let them be stabbed with their swords: they shall kill their sons and daughters, and their houses they shall burn with fire.

48. And I will take away wickedness out of the land: and all women shall learn, not to do according to the wickedness of them.
