New Testament

Ezekiel 23:18-26 New English Translation (NET)

18. When she lustfully exposed her nakedness, I was disgusted with her, just as I had been disgusted with her sister.

19. Yet she increased her prostitution, remembering the days of her youth when she engaged in prostitution in the land of Egypt.

20. She lusted after their genitals – as large as those of donkeys, and their seminal emission was as strong as that of stallions.

21. This is how you assessed the obscene conduct of your youth, when the Egyptians fondled your nipples and squeezed your young breasts.

22. “Therefore, Oholibah, this is what the sovereign Lord says: Look here, I am about to stir up against you the lovers with whom you were disgusted; 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 officials, officers and nobles, all of them riding on horses.

24. They will attack you with weapons, chariots, wagons, and with a huge army; they will array themselves against you on every side with large shields, small shields, and helmets. I will assign them the task of judgment; they will punish you according to their laws.

25. I will direct my jealous anger against you, and they will deal with you in rage. They will cut off your nose and your ears, and your survivors will die by the sword. They will seize your sons and daughters, and your survivors will be consumed by fire.

26. They will strip your clothes off you and take away your beautiful jewelry.
