Ezekiel 16:20-29 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

20. ‘And you took your sons and your daughters whom you had borne for me, and you sacrificed them to them to be eaten, as if your whorings were not enough.

21. And you slaughtered my children, and you gave them to be sacrificed to them.

22. And in all of your detestable things and your fornication you did not remember the days of your childhood when you were naked and bare, when you were kicking about in your blood.

23. “ ‘And then after all of your evil! Woe, woe, to you!’ declares the Lord Yahweh.

24. ‘And then you built for yourself a mound, and you made for yourself a high place in every public square.

25. At the head of every street you built your high place and you disgraced your beauty and you spread your feet for every passerby, and you increased your whoring.

26. And you prostituted with the Egyptians, your neighbors who were sexually aroused, and you increased your fornication to provoke me.

27. And look! I stretched out my hand against you, and I reduced your portion, and I gave you into the desire of your haters, the daughters of the Philistines, who were ashamed because of your lewd conduct.

28. And you prostituted with the Assyrians on account of your insatiable lust, and you prostituted with them, and still you were not satisfied.

29. And you increased your fornication to the land of traders, to Chaldea, and even with this you were not satisfied.
