Leviticus 17:7

7So they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to goat demons, after whom they awhore. This shall be a statute forever for them throughout their generations.

Leviticus 20:5

5then I will set my face against that man and against his clan and will cut them off from among their people, him and all who follow him in bwhoring after Molech.

2 Kings 9:22

22And when Joram saw Jehu, he said, “Is it peace, Jehu?” He answered, “What peace can there be, so long as cthe whorings and the sorceries of your mother Jezebel are so many?”

2 Chronicles 21:13

13 dbut have walked in the way of the kings of Israel and have enticed Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem einto whoredom, fas the house of Ahab led Israel into whoredom, and also you ghave killed your brothers, of your father’s house, who were better than you,

Psalms 106:39

39Thus they hbecame unclean by their acts,
and iplayed the whore in their deeds.

Ezekiel 16:15-63

15 j“But you trusted in your beauty kand played the whore
Or were unfaithful; also verses 16, 17, 26, 28
because of your renown mand lavished your whorings
Or unfaithfulness; also verses 20, 22, 25, 26, 29, 33, 34, 36
on any passerby; your beauty
Hebrew it
became his.
16You took some of your garments and made for yourself colorful shrines, and on them played the whore. The like has never been, nor ever shall be.
The meaning of this Hebrew sentence is uncertain
17You also took qyour beautiful jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given you, and rmade for yourself images of men, and with them played the whore. 18And you took your embroidered garments to cover them, sand set my oil and my incense before them. 19 tAlso my bread that I gave you— uI fed you with fine flour and oil and honey—you set before them for va pleasing aroma; and so it was, declares the Lord God. 20 wAnd you took your sons and your daughters, whom you had borne to me, and xthese you sacrificed to them to be devoured. Were your whorings so small a matter 21that you slaughtered my children and delivered them up as an offering by fire to them? 22And in all your abominations and your whorings you did not remember ythe days of your youth, zwhen you were naked and bare, wallowing in your blood.

23“And after all your wickedness (woe, woe to you! declares the Lord God), 24you built yourself aaa vaulted chamber and made yourself a lofty place in every square. 25At the head of every street abyou built your lofty place and made acyour beauty an abomination, adoffering yourself
Hebrew spreading your legs
to any passerby and multiplying your whoring.
26 afYou also played the whore agwith the Egyptians, your lustful neighbors, ahmultiplying your whoring, aito provoke me to anger. 27Behold, therefore, I stretched out my hand against you ajand diminished your allotted portion akand delivered you to the greed of your enemies, althe daughters of the Philistines, who were ashamed of your lewd behavior. 28 amYou played the whore also anwith the Assyrians, because you were not satisfied; yes, you played the whore with them, and still you were not satisfied. 29You multiplied your whoring also with the trading land aoof Chaldea, and even with this you were not satisfied.

30How sick is your heart,
Revocalization yields  How I am filled with anger against you
declares the Lord God, because you did all these things, the deeds of a brazen prostitute,
31building your vaulted chamber at the head of every street, and making your lofty place in every square. Yet you were not like a prostitute, aqbecause you scorned payment. 32Adulterous wife, who receives strangers instead of her husband! 33Men give gifts to all prostitutes, arbut you gave your gifts to all your lovers, bribing them to come to you from every side with your whorings. 34So you were different from other women in your whorings. No one solicited you to play the whore, and asyou gave payment, while no payment was given to you; therefore you were different.

35Therefore, O prostitute, hear the word of the Lord: 36Thus says the Lord God, Because your lust was poured out and your nakedness uncovered in your whorings with your lovers, and with all your abominable idols, atand because of the blood of your children that you gave to them, 37therefore, behold, auI will gather all your lovers with whom you took pleasure, all those you loved and avall those you hated. awI will gather them against you from every side axand will uncover your nakedness to them, that aythey may see all your nakedness. 38 azAnd I will judge you baas women who commit adultery and bbshed blood are judged, and bring upon you the blood of wrath and jealousy. 39And I will give you into their hands, and they shall throw down your bcvaulted chamber and break down bdyour lofty places. beThey shall strip you of your clothes and take bfyour beautiful jewels and leave you bgnaked and bare. 40 bhThey shall bring up a crowd against you, biand they shall stone you and cut you to pieces with their swords. 41 bjAnd they shall bkburn your houses and blexecute judgments upon you in the sight of many women. bmI will make you stop playing the whore, and bnyou shall also give payment no more. 42 boSo will I satisfy my wrath on you, and my jealousy shall depart from you. I will be calm and will no more be angry. 43Because you have not remembered bpthe days of your youth, but have enraged me with all these things, therefore, behold, bqI have returned your deeds upon your head, declares the Lord God. Have you not brcommitted lewdness in addition to all your abominations?

44Behold, everyone bswho uses proverbs will use this proverb about you: ‘Like mother, like daughter.’ 45You are the daughter of your mother, who loathed her husband and her children; and you are the sister of btyour sisters, who loathed their husbands and their children. buYour mother was a Hittite and bvyour father an Amorite. 46And bwyour elder sister is Samaria, who lived with her daughters to the north of you; and bxyour younger sister, who lived to the south of you, is Sodom with her daughters. 47 byNot only did you walk in their ways and do according to their abominations; within a very little time bzyou were more corrupt than they in all your ways. 48 caAs I live, declares the Lord God, your sister cbSodom and her daughters have not done as you and your daughters have done. 49Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, ccexcess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy. 50They were haughty and cddid an abomination before me. So ceI removed them, when I saw it. 51 cfSamaria has not committed half your sins. You have committed more abominations than they, and cghave made your sisters appear righteous by all the abominations that you have committed. 52 chBear your disgrace, you also, for you have intervened on behalf of your sisters. Because of your sins in which you acted more abominably than they, they are more in the right than you. So be ashamed, you also, and bear your disgrace, for you have made your sisters appear righteous.

53 ci“I will restore their fortunes, both the fortunes of Sodom and her daughters, and the fortunes of Samaria and her daughters, and I will restore your own fortunes in their midst, 54that you may bear your disgrace cjand be ashamed of all that you have done, ckbecoming a consolation to them. 55As for your sisters, Sodom and her daughters shall return to their former state, cland Samaria and her daughters shall return cmto their former state, cnand you and your daughters shall return coto your former state. 56Was not your sister Sodom a byword in your mouth cpin the day of your pride, 57before your wickedness was uncovered? Now you have become cqan object of reproach for the daughters of Syria
Some manuscripts (compare Syriac)  of Edom
and all those around her, and for csthe daughters of the Philistines, ctthose all around who despise you.
58 cuYou bear the penalty of your lewdness and your abominations, declares the Lord.

The Lord’s Everlasting Covenant

59For thus says the Lord God: I will deal with you as you have done, you cvwho have despised the oath in breaking the covenant, 60yet cwI will remember my covenant with you cxin the days of your youth, cyand I will establish for you an everlasting covenant. 61 czThen you will remember your ways daand be ashamed when you take dbyour sisters, both your elder and your younger, and I give them to you dcas daughters, but not on account of
Or  not apart from
the covenant with you.
62I will establish my covenant with you, deand you shall know that I am the Lord, 63that you may remember and be confounded, and dfnever open your mouth again because of your shame, when I atone for you for all that you have done, declares the Lord God.”

Revelation of John 2:20-22

20But I have this against you, that you tolerate that woman dgJezebel, who calls herself a prophetess and is teaching and seducing my servants
Greek bondservants
dito practice sexual immorality and djto eat food sacrificed to idols.
21I gave her time to repent, but dkshe refuses to repent of her sexual immorality. 22Behold, I will throw her onto a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her I will throw into great tribulation, unless they repent of her works,
