Ezekiel 16:9-19 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

9. “And I washed you in water, and I washed off your blood, and I anointed you with oil.

10. “And I dressed you in embroidered work and gave you sandals of leather. And I wrapped you in fine linen and covered you with silk.

11. “And I adorned you with ornaments, and I put bracelets on your wrists, and a chain on your neck.

12. “And I put a ring on your nose, and earrings in your ears, and a crown of adorning on your head.

13. “Thus you were adorned with gold and silver, and your dress was of fine linen, and silk, and embroidered cloth. You ate fine flour, and honey, and oil. And you were exceedingly pretty, and became fit for royalty.

14. “And your name went out among the nations because of your loveliness, for it was perfect, by My splendour which I had put on you,” declares the Master יהוה.

15. “But you trusted in your own loveliness, and whored because of your name, and poured out your whorings on everyone passing by who would have it.

16. “And you took some of your garments and made multi-coloured high places for yourself, and whored on them – which should not have come about, nor shall it be.

17. “And you took your splendid adornments, of My gold and My silver that I gave you, and made for yourself images of a male and whored with them.

18. “And you took your embroidered garments and covered them, and you set My oil and My incense before them.

19. “And My food which I gave you, fine flour and oil and honey which I fed you, you set it before them as sweet incense – and so it was,” declares the Master יהוה.
