Ezekiel 23:5-21

DouayRheims(i) 5 And Oolla committed fornication against me, and doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians that came to her, 6 Who were clothed with blue, princes, and rulers, beautiful youths, all horsemen, mounted upon horses. 7 And she committed her fornications with those chosen men, all sons of the Assyrians: and she defiled herself with the uncleanness of all them on whom she doted. 8 Moreover also she did not forsake her fornications which she had committed in Egypt: for they also lay with her in her youth, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured out their fornication upon her. 9 Therefore have I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the sons of the Assyrians, upon whose lust she doted. 10 They discovered her disgrace, took away her sons and daughters, and slew her with the sword: and they became infamous women, and they executed judgments in her. 11 And when her sister Ooliba saw this, she was mad with lust more than she: and she carried her fornication beyond the fornication of her sister. 12 Impudently prostituting herself to the children of the Assyrians, the princes, and rulers that came to her, clothed with divers colours, to the horsemen that rode upon horses, and to young men all of great beauty. 13 And I saw that she was defiled, and that they both took one way. 14 And she increased her fornications: and when she had seen men painted on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans set forth in colours, 15 And girded with girdles about their reins, and with dyed turbans on their heads, the resemblance of all the captains, the likeness of the sons of Babylon, and of the land of the Chaldeans wherein they were born, 16 She doted upon them with the lust of her eyes, and she sent messengers to them into Chaldea. 17 And when the sons of Babylon were come to her to the bed of love, they defiled her with their fornications, and she was polluted by them, and her soul was glutted with them. 18 And she discovered her fornications, and discovered her disgrace: and my soul was alienated from her, as my soul was alienated from her sister. 19 For she multiplied her fornications, remembering the days of her youth, in which she played the harlot in the land of Egypt. 20 And she was mad with lust after lying with them whose flesh is as the flesh of asses: and whose issue as the issue of horses. 21 And thou hast renewed the wickedness of thy youth, when thy breasts were pressed in Egypt, and the paps of thy virginity broken.
