Ezekiel 16:30

Read in context

Ezekiel 16:28–32 · Berean Standard Bible

28 Then you prostituted yourself with the Assyrians, because you were not yet satisfied. Even after that, you were still not satisfied.

29 So you extended your promiscuity to Chaldea, the land of merchants—but even with this you were not satisfied!

30 How weak-willed is your heart, declares the Lord GOD, while you do all these things, the acts of a shameless prostitute!

31 But when you built your mounds at the head of every street and made your lofty shrines in every public square, you were not even like a prostitute, because you scorned payment.

32 You adulterous wife! You receive strangers instead of your own husband!
