Ezekiel 23:3

3 and they fornicated in Egypt; they committed fornication in their youth. In that place, their breasts were conquered; the breasts of their adolescence were subdued. ^{▼▼23:3This verse is about cities and nations and peoples, using a figure of two women who committed fornication; therefore, the translation uses conquered and subdued, putting the meaning of the verse above its figure. Notice that the verb in the Latin is in the passive tense; this speaks to the difference between men and women in sexuality.(Conte)
