Ezekiel 16:34
Verse 34 of 63. The 16th of 48 chapters in Ezekiel, in The Major Prophets.
30“‘“How weak is your heart,” says the Lord GOD, “since you do all these things, the work of an impudent prostitute;
31in that you build your vaulted place at the head of every way, and make your lofty place in every street, and have not been as a prostitute, in that you scorn pay.
32“‘“Adulterous wife, who takes strangers instead of her husband!
33People give gifts to all prostitutes; but you give your gifts to all your lovers, and bribe them, that they may come to you on every side for your prostitution.
34You are different from other women in your prostitution, in that no one follows you to play the prostitute; and whereas you give hire, and no hire is given to you, therefore you are different.”’
35“Therefore, prostitute, hear the LORD’s word:
36‘The Lord GOD says, “Because your filthiness was poured out, and your nakedness uncovered through your prostitution with your lovers; and because of all the idols of your abominations, and for the blood of your children, that you gave to them;
37therefore see, I will gather all your lovers, with whom you have taken pleasure, and all those whom you have loved, with all those whom you have hated. I will even gather them against you on every side, and will uncover your nakedness to them, that they may see all your nakedness.
38I will judge you as women who break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will bring on you the blood of wrath and jealousy.
