Again the word
of the LORD
came unto me, saying,
Son
of man,
cause Jerusalem
to know
her abominations,
And say,
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD
unto Jerusalem;
Thy birth
and thy nativity
is of the land
of Canaan;
thy father
was an Amorite,
and thy mother
an Hittite.

And as for thy nativity,
in the day
thou wast born
thy navel
was not cut,
neither wast thou washed
in water
to supple
thee; thou wast not salted
at all,
nor swaddled
at all.

to the lothing
of thy person,
in the day
that thou wast born.

And when I passed
by thee, and saw
thee polluted
in thine own blood,
I said
unto thee when thou wast in thy blood,
Live;
yea, I said
unto thee when thou wast in thy blood,
Live.
I have caused
thee to multiply
as the bud
of the field,
and thou hast increased
and waxen great,
and thou art come
to excellent
ornaments:
thy breasts
are fashioned,
and thine hair
is grown,
whereas thou wast naked
and bare.
Now when I passed
by thee, and looked
upon thee, behold, thy time
was the time
of love;
and I spread
my skirt
over thee, and covered
thy nakedness:
yea, I sware
unto thee, and entered
into a covenant
with thee, saith
the Lord
GOD,
and thou becamest mine.

Then washed
I thee with water;
yea, I throughly washed away
thy blood
from thee, and I anointed
thee with oil.
I clothed
thee also with broidered work,
and shod
thee with badgers' skin,
and I girded
thee about with fine linen,
and I covered
thee with silk.
I decked
thee also with ornaments,
and I put
bracelets
upon thy hands,
and a chain
on thy neck.
And I put
a jewel
on thy forehead,
and earrings
in thine ears,
and a beautiful
crown
upon thine head.
Thus wast thou decked
with gold
and silver;
and thy raiment
was of fine linen,
and silk,
and broidered work;
thou didst eat
fine flour,
and honey,
and oil:
and thou wast exceeding
beautiful,
and thou didst prosper
into a kingdom.

And thy renown

GOD.

But thou didst trust
in thine own beauty,
and playedst the harlot
because of thy renown,
and pouredst out
thy fornications
on every one that passed by;
his it was.
And of thy garments
thou didst take,
and deckedst
thy high places
with divers colours,
and playedst the harlot
thereupon: the like things shall not come,
neither shall it be so.

And tookest

My meat
also which I gave
thee, fine flour,

and honey,
wherewith I fed
thee, thou hast even set
it before
them for a sweet
savour:
and thus it was, saith
the Lord
GOD.
Moreover thou hast taken
thy sons
and thy daughters,
whom thou hast borne
unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed
unto them to be devoured.
Is this of thy whoredoms
a small matter,
That thou hast slain
my children,
and delivered
them to cause them to pass through
the fire for them?
And in all thine abominations
and thy whoredoms
thou hast not remembered
the days
of thy youth,
when thou wast naked
and bare,
and wast polluted
in thy blood.

And it came to pass after
all thy wickedness,
(woe,

That thou hast also built
unto thee an eminent place,
and hast made
thee an high place

Thou hast built
thy high place

Thou hast played the whore
also with the Assyrians,
because
thou wast unsatiable;
yea, thou hast played the harlot
with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied.
Thou hast moreover multiplied
thy fornication
in the land
of Canaan
unto Chaldea;
and yet thou wast not satisfied
herewith.
How weak
is thine heart,
saith
the Lord
GOD,
seeing thou doest
all these things, the work
of an imperious
whorish
woman;
In that thou buildest
thine eminent place
in the head
of every way,
and makest
thine high place
in every street;

in that thou scornest

And I will also give

and they shall throw down
thine eminent place,
and shall break down

they shall strip
thee also of thy clothes,
and shall take
thy fair

and leave
thee naked

They shall also bring up

And they shall burn

upon thee in the sight
of many

and I will cause thee to cease
from playing the harlot,
and thou also shalt give
no hire
any more.
So will I make my fury
toward thee to rest,
and my jealousy
shall depart
from thee, and I will be quiet,
and will be no more angry.
Because thou hast not remembered
the days
of thy youth,
but hast fretted
me in all these things; behold,
therefore I also will recompense
thy way
upon thine head,
saith
the Lord
GOD:
and thou shalt not commit
this lewdness
above all thine abominations.

As is the mother,

Thou art thy mother's

that lotheth

and thou art the sister
of thy sisters,
which lothed

And thine elder

Yet hast thou not walked

nor done
after their abominations:
but, as if that were a very

Neither hath Samaria

in all thine abominations
which thou hast done.
Thou also, which hast judged
thy sisters,
bear

that thou hast committed more abominable

they are more righteous

also, and bear
thy shame,
in that thou hast justified

For thy sister

Before thy wickedness

her, the daughters

thee round about.
Thou hast borne
thy lewdness
and thine abominations,

the LORD.
For thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
I will even deal
with thee as thou hast done,
which hast despised
the oath
in breaking
the covenant.
Nevertheless I will remember
my covenant
with thee in the days
of thy youth,
and I will establish
unto thee an everlasting
covenant.
Then thou shalt remember
thy ways,
and be ashamed,
when thou shalt receive

and I will give
them unto thee for daughters,
but not by thy covenant.
