Ezekiel 23:41–45 · Berean Standard Bible

41 You sat on a couch of luxury with a table spread before it, on which you had set My incense and My oil,

42 accompanied by the sound of a carefree crowd. Drunkards were brought in from the desert along with men from the rabble, who put bracelets on your wrists and beautiful crowns on your head.

43 Then I said of her who had grown old in adulteries: ‘Now let them use her as a prostitute, for that is all she is!’

44 And they slept with her as with a prostitute; they slept with Oholah and Oholibah, those lewd women.

45 But righteous men will sentence them to the punishment of those who commit adultery and bloodshed, because they are adulteresses with blood on their hands.
