15. “But you took advantage of your beauty and fame to sleep with everyone who came along.
16. You used some of your clothes to decorate your places of worship, and just like a prostitute, you gave yourself to everyone.
17. You took the silver and gold jewellery that I had given you, used it to make male images, and committed adultery with them.
18. You took the embroidered clothes I gave you and put them on the images, and you offered to the images the olive oil and incense I had given you.
19. I gave you food — the best flour, olive oil, and honey — but you offered it as a sacrifice to win the favour of idols.” This is what the Sovereign Lord says.
20. “Then you took the sons and the daughters you had borne me and offered them as sacrifices to idols. Wasn't it bad enough to be unfaithful to me,
21. without taking my children and sacrificing them to idols?
22. During your disgusting life as a prostitute you never once remembered your childhood — when you were naked, squirming in your own blood.”
23. The Sovereign Lord said, “You are doomed! Doomed! You did all that evil, and then
24. by the side of every road you built places to worship idols and practise prostitution.
