Ezekiel 23:27-37 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

27. And I will put an end to your obscene conduct coming from you and your fornication from the land of Egypt, and you will not lift your eyes to them; and you will not remember Egypt again.’

28. For thus says the Lord Yahweh: ‘Look! I am giving you into the hand of those you hated, into the hand of those from whom you turned away.

29. And they will deal with you in hatred, and they will take all of your acquisitions, and they will leave you naked and in bareness; and the nakedness of your fornication and your obscene conduct and your whorings will be exposed.

30. These things are accomplished against you since you prostituted yourself after the nations, and on account of that, you defiled yourself by their idols.

31. You went in the same way of your sister, and I will give her cup into your hand.” ’

32. Thus says the Lord Yahweh: “You will drink the deep and wide cup of your sister; you will be as laughter and as scorn; the cup holds so much!

33. You will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, for a cup of horror and desolation is the cup of your sister, Samaria.

34. And you will drink it, and you will drain it, and its potsherds you will gnaw, and you will tear out your breasts, for I myself spoke,” declares the Lord Yahweh.

35. Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Because you have forgotten me, and you threw me behind your back, now in turn you bear your obscene conduct and your whorings.”

36. And Yahweh said to me, “Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah and declare their abominable deeds to them?

37. For they committed adultery, and blood is on their hands, and they committed adultery with their idols, and even their children that they had borne for me—they sacrificed them as food!
