20. and lusted after their lovers, whose sexual members were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of stallions.
21. So you revisited the indecency of your youth, when the Egyptians caressed your nipples to enjoy your youthful breasts.
22. “Therefore Oholibah, this is what the Lord God says: I am going to incite your lovers against you, those you turned away from in disgust. I will bring them against you from every side:
23. the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans; Pekod, Shoa, and Koa; and all the Assyrians with them — desirable young men, all of them governors and prefects, officers and administrators, all of them riding on horses.
24. They will come against you with an alliance of nations and with weapons, chariots, and wagons. They will set themselves against you on every side with shields, bucklers, and helmets. I will delegate judgment to them, and they will judge you by their own standards.
25. When I vent My jealous rage on you, they will deal with you in wrath. They will cut off your nose and ears, and your descendants will fall by the sword. They will seize your sons and daughters, and your descendants will be consumed by fire.
26. They will strip off your clothes and take your beautiful jewelry.
27. So I will put an end to your indecency and sexual immorality, which began in the land of Egypt, and you will not look longingly at them or remember Egypt anymore.
28. “For this is what the Lord God says: I am going to hand you over to those you hate, to those you turned away from in disgust.
29. They will treat you with hatred, take all you have worked for, and leave you stark naked, so that the shame of your debauchery will be exposed, both your indecency and promiscuity.
30. These things will be done to you because you acted like a prostitute with the nations, defiling yourself with their idols.
31. You have followed the path of your sister, so I will put her cup in your hand.”
32. This is what the Lord God says:You will drink your sister’s cup, which is deep and wide.You will be an object of ridicule and scorn,for it holds so much.
33. You will be filled with drunkenness and grief,with a cup of devastation and desolation,the cup of your sister Samaria.
34. You will drink it and drain it;then you will gnaw its broken pieces,and tear your breasts.For I have spoken.This is the declaration of the Lord God.
35. Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: “Because you have forgotten Me and cast Me behind your back, you must bear the consequences of your indecency and promiscuity.”
36. Then the Lord said to me: “Son of man, will you pass judgment against Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare their detestable practices to them.
37. For they have committed adultery, and blood is on their hands; they have committed adultery with their idols. They have even made the children they bore to Me pass through the fire as food for the idols.
