Ezekiel 16:29-38 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

29. And thou dost multiply thy whoredoms On the land of Canaan--toward Chaldea, And even with this thou hast not been satisfied.

30. How weak [is] thy heart, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, In thy doing all these, The work of a domineering whorish woman.

31. In thy building thine arch at the head of every way, Thy high place thou hast made in every broad place, And--hast not been as a whore deriding a gift.

32. The wife who committeth adultery--Under her husband--doth receive strangers.

33. To all whores they give a gift, And--thou hast given thy gifts to all thy lovers, And dost bribe them to come in unto thee, From round about--in thy whoredoms.

34. And the contrary is in thee from women in thy whoredoms, That after thee none doth go a-whoring; And in thy giving a gift, And a gift hath not been given to thee; And thou art become contrary.

35. Therefore, O whore, hear a word of Jehovah,

36. Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of thy brass being poured forth, And thy nakedness is revealed in thy whoredoms near thy lovers, And near all the idols of thy abominations, And according to the blood of thy sons, Whom thou hast given tothem;

37. Therefore, lo, I am assembling all thy lovers, To whom thou hast been sweet, And all whom thou hast loved, Besides all whom thou hast hated; And I have assembled them by thee round about, And have revealed thy nakedness to them, And they have seen all thy nakedness.

38. And I have judged thee--judgments of adulteresses, And of women shedding blood, And have given thee blood, fury, and jealousy.
