1
Then the word
of the LORD
came
to me, saying,
2
"Son
of man,
make known
to Jerusalem
her abominations
3
and say,
'Thus
says
the Lord
GOD
to Jerusalem,
"Your origin
and your birth
are from the land
of the Canaanite,
your father
was an Amorite
and your mother
a Hittite.
4
"As for your birth,
on the day
you were born
your navel cord
was not cut,
nor
were you washed
with water
for cleansing;
you were not rubbed
with salt
or even wrapped
in cloths.
5
"No
eye
looked with pity
on you to do
any
of these things
for you, to have compassion
on you. Rather you were thrown
out into the open
field,
for you were abhorred
on the day
you were born.
6
"When I passed
by you and saw
you squirming
in your blood,
I said
to you while you were
in your blood,
'Live!'
Yes,
I said
to you while you were
in your blood,
'Live!'
7
"I made
you numerous
like plants
of the field.
Then you grew
up, became tall
and reached the age
for fine ornaments;
your breasts
were formed
and your hair
had grown.
Yet you were naked
and bare.
8
"Then I passed
by you and saw
you, and behold,
you were at the time
for love;
so I spread
My skirt
over
you and covered
your nakedness.
I also swore
to you and entered
into a covenant
with you so that you became
Mine," declares
the Lord
GOD.
9
"Then I bathed
you with water,
washed off
your blood
from you and anointed
you with oil.
10
"I also clothed
you with embroidered cloth
and put sandals
of porpoise skin
on your feet; and I wrapped
you with fine linen
and covered
you with silk.
11
"I adorned
you with ornaments,
put
bracelets
on your hands
and a necklace
around
your neck.
12
"I also put
a ring
in your nostril,
earrings
in your ears
and a beautiful
crown
on your head.
13
"Thus you were adorned
with gold
and silver,
and your dress
was of fine linen,
silk
and embroidered cloth.
You ate
fine flour,
honey
and oil;
so you were exceedingly
beautiful
and advanced
to royalty.
14
"Then your fame
went forth
among the nations
on account of your beauty,
for it was perfect
because of My splendor
which
I bestowed
on you," declares
the Lord
GOD.
15
"But you trusted
in your beauty
and played the harlot
because
of your fame,
and you poured
out your harlotries
on every
passer-by
who might be willing.
16
"You took
some
of your clothes,
made
for yourself high places
of various colors
and played the harlot
on them, which should never
come
about nor
happen.
17
"You also took
your beautiful
jewels
made of My gold
and of My silver,
which
I had given
you, and made
for yourself male
images
that you might play the harlot
with them.
18
"Then you took
your embroidered
cloth
and covered
them, and offered
My oil
and My incense
before
them.
19
"Also My bread
which
I gave
you, fine flour,
oil
and honey
with
which
I fed
you, you would offer
before
them for a soothing
aroma;
so it happened,"
declares
the Lord
GOD.
20
"Moreover, you took
your sons
and daughters
whom
you had borne
to Me and sacrificed
them to idols to be devoured.
Were your harlotries
so small
a matter?
21
"You slaughtered
My children
and offered
them up to idols by causing them to pass through
the fire.
22
"Besides
all
your abominations
and harlotries
you did not remember
the days
of your youth,
when you were naked
and bare
and squirming
in your blood.
23
"Then it came
about after
all
your wickedness
('Woe,
woe
to you!' declares
the Lord
GOD),
24
that you built
yourself a shrine
and made
yourself a high place
in every
square.
25
"You built
yourself a high place
at the top
of every
street
and made
your beauty
abominable,
and you spread
your legs
to every
passer-by
to multiply
your harlotry.
26
"You also played the harlot
with the Egyptians,
your lustful
neighbors,
and multiplied
your harlotry
to make Me angry.
27
"Behold
now, I have stretched
out My hand
against
you and diminished
your rations.
And I delivered
you up to the desire
of those who hate
you, the daughters
of the Philistines,
who are ashamed
of your lewd
conduct.
28
"Moreover,
you played
the harlot
with the Assyrians
because
you were not satisfied;
you played
the harlot
with them and still
were not satisfied.
29
"You also multiplied
your harlotry
with the land
of merchants,
Chaldea,
yet even
with this
you were not satisfied."'"
30
"How
languishing
is your heart,"
declares
the Lord
GOD,
"while you do
all
these
things, the actions
of a bold-faced
harlot.
31
"When you built
your shrine
at the beginning
of every
street
and made
your high place
in every
square,
in disdaining
money,
you were not like a harlot.
32
"You adulteress
wife,
who takes
strangers
instead
of her husband!
33
"Men give
gifts
to all
harlots,
but you give
your
gifts
to all
your lovers
to bribe
them to come
to you from every direction
for your harlotries.
34
"Thus you are different
from those women
in your harlotries,
in that no
one plays the harlot
as you do, because you give
money
and no
money
is given
you; thus you are different."
35
Therefore,
O harlot,
hear
the word
of the LORD.
36
Thus
says
the Lord
GOD,
"Because
your lewdness
was poured
out and your nakedness
uncovered
through your harlotries
with your lovers
and with all
your detestable
idols,
and because of the blood
of your sons
which
you gave
to
idols,
37
therefore,
behold,
I will gather
all
your lovers
with whom
you took pleasure,
even
all
those whom
you loved
and
all
those whom
you hated.
So
I will gather
them against
you from every direction
and expose
your nakedness
to them that they may see
all
your nakedness
.
38
"Thus I will judge
you like women who commit adultery
or shed
blood
are judged;
and I will bring
on you the
blood
of wrath
and jealousy.
39
"I will also give
you into the hands
of your lovers, and they will tear down
your shrines,
demolish
your high places,
strip
you of your clothing,
take
away your jewels,
and will leave
you naked
and bare.
40
"They will incite
a crowd
against
you and they will stone
you and cut you to pieces
with their swords.
41
"They will burn
your houses
with fire
and execute
judgments
on you in the sight
of many
women.
Then I will stop
you from playing the harlot,
and you will also
no
longer
pay
your lovers.
42
"So I will calm
My fury
against you and My jealousy
will depart
from you, and I will be pacified
and angry
no
more.
43
"Because
you have not remembered
the days
of your youth
but have enraged
Me by all
these things,
behold,
I in turn
will bring
your conduct
down
on your own head,"
declares
the Lord
GOD,
"so that you will not commit
this lewdness
on top
of all
your other abominations.
44
"Behold,
everyone
who quotes
proverbs will quote this proverb
concerning
you, saying,
'
Like mother,
like daughter.'
45
"You are the daughter
of your mother,
who
loathed
her husband
and children.
You are also the sister
of your sisters,
who
loathed
their husbands
and children.
Your mother
was a Hittite
and your father
an Amorite.
46
"Now your older
sister
is Samaria,
who lives
north
of you with her daughters;
and your younger
sister
,
who lives
south
of you, is Sodom
with her daughters.
47
"Yet you have not merely walked
in their ways
or done
according to their abominations;
but, as if that were too
little,
you acted
more
corruptly
in all
your conduct
than
they.
48
"As I live,"
declares
the Lord
GOD,
"Sodom,
your sister
and her daughters
have not done
as you and your daughters
have done.
49
"Behold,
this
was the guilt
of your sister
Sodom:
she and her daughters
had
arrogance,
abundant
food
and careless
ease,
but she did not help
the poor
and needy.
50
"Thus they were haughty
and committed
abominations
before
Me. Therefore I removed
them when
I saw
it.
51
"Furthermore, Samaria
did not commit
half
of your sins,
for you have multiplied
your abominations
more than
they. Thus you have made
your sisters
appear righteous
by all
your abominations
which
you have committed.
52
"Also
bear
your disgrace
in that you have made judgment favorable
for
your sisters
.
Because of your sins
in which
you acted
more
abominably
than
they, they are
more
in the right
than
you. Yes, be also
ashamed
and
bear
your disgrace
,
in that you made
your sisters
appear righteous.
53
"Nevertheless, I will restore
their captivity,
the captivity
of Sodom
and her daughters,
the captivity
of Samaria
and her daughters,
and along
with them your own captivity,
54
in order
that you may bear
your humiliation
and feel ashamed
for all
that you have done
when you become a consolation
to them.
55
"Your sisters,
Sodom
with her daughters
and Samaria
with her daughters
,
will return
to their former
state,
and you with your daughters
will also return
to your former state.
56
"As the name of your sister
Sodom
was not heard
from your lips
in your day
of pride,
57
before
your wickedness
was uncovered,
so
now
you have become the reproach
of the daughters
of Edom
and of all
who are around
her,
of the daughters
of the Philistines--
those surrounding
you who despise
you.
58
"You have borne
the penalty of your lewdness
and abominations,"
the LORD
declares.
59
For thus
says
the Lord
GOD,
"I will also do
with you as you have done,
you who
have despised
the oath
by breaking
the covenant.
60
"Nevertheless, I will remember
My
covenant
with you in the days
of your youth,
and I will establish
an everlasting
covenant
with you.
61
"Then you will remember
your ways
and be ashamed
when you receive
your sisters,
both your older
and your younger;
and I will give
them to you as daughters,
but not because
of your covenant.
62
"Thus I will establish
My covenant
with you, and you shall know
that I am the LORD,
63
so that you may remember
and be ashamed
and never
open
your mouth
anymore
because
of your humiliation,
when I have forgiven
you for all
that you have done,"
the Lord
GOD
declares.
