Ezekiel 23:4-10

4Their names were Oholah the elder and Oholibah her sister. And they became Mine, and they bore sons and daughters. And as for their names, Samaria is Oholah and Jerusalem is Oholibah.

5Oholah played the harlot
Lit under Me
while she was Mine; and she lusted after her lovers, after the bAssyrians, her neighbors,
6who were clothed in purple, cgovernors and officials, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding on horses. 7She bestowed her harlotries on them, all of whom were the choicest
Lit sons of Asshur
men of Assyria; and with all whom she lusted after, with all their idols she edefiled herself.
8She did not forsake her harlotries ffrom the time in Egypt; for in her youth
Lit they
men had lain with her, and they handled her virgin bosom and poured out their
Lit harlotry
lust on her.
9Therefore, I gave her into the hand of her ilovers, into the hand of the
Lit sons of Asshur
Assyrians, after whom she lusted.
10“They kuncovered her nakedness; they took her sons and her daughters, but they slew her with the sword. Thus she became a
Lit name
byword among women, and they executed judgments on her.
