Ezekiel 16:33-63

ECB(i) 33 They give payoffs to all whores: and you give payoffs to all your lovers, and hire them to come to you from all around for your whoredom. 34 And the contrary is in you of women in your whoredoms; whereas no one whores after you: and in that you give a payoff and no payoff is given to you: so you are contrary. 35 So, O whore, hear the word of Yah Veh! 36 Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: Because your copper is poured, and your nakedness exposed through your whoredoms with your lovers and with all the idols of your abhorrences, and by the blood of your sons, which you give them; 37 behold, so I gather all your lovers whom you pleased and all whom you loved with all whom you hated - and I gather them all around against you and expose your nakedness to them so that they see all your nakedness. 38 And I judge you with judgments as adulteresses who pour blood; and I give you blood and fury and jealousy: 39 and I give you into their hand: and they throw down your arch and pull down your ramahs: and they strip you of your clothes and take your instruments of adornment; and leave you naked and nude: 40 and they ascend a congregation against you and stone you with stones and section you with their swords: 41 and they burn your houses with fire and work judgments on you in the eyes of many women: and I shabbathize you from whoring and that you give a payoff no more. 42 Thus I rest my fury toward you; and turn my jealousy from you: and I rest, and vex no more. 43 Because you remember not the days of your youth, and quiver me in all these: behold, even I also give your way on your head - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh that you not work this intrigue above all your abhorrences. 44 Behold, every one who proverbializes proverbs proverbializes this proverb against you, saying, As the mother, thus her daughter. 45 You are the daughter of your mother who loathes her man and her sons; and you are the sister of your sisters, who loathe their men and their sons: your mother is a Hethiy and your father an Emoriy: 46 and your great sister is Shomeron - she and her daughters who settle at your left: and your younger sister who settles at your right is Sedom and her daughters. 47 Yet you neither walk after their ways, nor work after their abhorrences: but loathe as a trifling: in all your ways, you are ruined more than they. 48 I live - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh Sedom your sister - neither she nor her daughters work as you work - you and your daughters. 49 Behold, this is the perversity of your sister Sedom: pomp, sufficiency of bread, and the serenity of resting are in her and in her daughters, she strengthens not the hand of the humble and needy: 50 and they lift themselves and work abhorrence at my face: and I turn them aside when I see. 51 As for Shomeron: she sins not the half of your sins; but you abound your abhorrences more than they and justify your sisters in all the abhorrences you work. 52 You also, who judge your sisters, bear your own shame for your sins - more abhorrent than theirs: they are justified more than you: yes you, shame also and bear your shame in that you justify your sisters. 53 When I restore their captivity - the captivity of Sedom and her daughters and the captivity of Shomeron and her daughters and the captivity of your captives in their midst: 54 that you bear your own shame and confound in all you work in that you sigh over them. 55 When your sisters, Sedom and her daughters, return to their former estate, and Shomeron and her daughters return to their former estate, then you and your daughters return to your former estate. 56 For your mouth reports not your sister Sedom in the day of your pomp 57 ere your evil is exposed as at the time of reproach of the daughters of Aram and all those around her, the daughters of the Peleshethiy, who despise you all around. 58 You bear your intrigue and your abhorrences - an oracle of Yah Veh. 59 For thus says Adonay Yah Veh: I work with you as you work - who despise the oath to break the covenant. 60 I remember my covenant with you in the days of your youth; and I raise to you an eternal covenant. 61 Then you remember your ways and shame - when you take your sisters - your greater and your younger: and I give them to you for daughters, - and not by your covenant: 62 and I raise my covenant with you; and you know, I - Yah Veh: 63 so that you remember, and shame; that you not open your mouth any more at the face of your shame, when I kapar/atone for you for all you work - an oracle of Adonay Yah Veh.
