21. “Oholibah, you dreamed of those times when you were young, when your lovers touched and handled your young breasts.
22. So Oholibah, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You became disgusted with your lovers, but I will bring them here, and they will surround you.
23. I will bring all the men from Babylon, especially the Chaldeans. I will bring the men from Pekod, Shoa, and Koa, and all the men from Assyria. I will bring all the leaders and officers, all those desirable young men, chariot officers, and handpicked soldiers riding their horses.
24. That crowd of men will come to you in large groups, riding on their horses and in their chariots. They will have their spears, shields, and helmets. They will gather around you, and I will tell them what you have done to me. Then they will punish you their own way.
25. I will show you how jealous I am. They will become angry and hurt you. They will cut off your nose and ears. They will kill you with a sword. Then they will take your children and burn whatever is left of you.
26. They will take your nice clothes and jewelry.
27. So I will stop your dreams about your love affair with Egypt. You will never again look for them. You will never remember Egypt again!’”
28. This is what the Lord GOD says: “I am giving you to the men you hate. I am giving you to the men you became disgusted with.
29. And they will show how much they hate you! They will take everything you worked for, and they will leave you bare and naked! People will clearly see your sins. They will see that you acted like a prostitute and dreamed wicked dreams.
30. You did those bad things when you left me to chase after the other nations. You did those bad things when you began to worship their filthy idols.
31. You followed your sister and lived as she did. You, yourself, took her cup of poison and held it in your hands.”
32. This is what the Lord GOD says: “You will drink your sister’s cup of poison. It is a tall, wide cup of poison. It holds much poison. People will laugh at you and make fun of you.
33. You will stagger like a drunk. You will become very dizzy. That is the cup of destruction and devastation. It is like the cup of punishment that your sister drank.
