| 1 | Again the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, | Ezk 8:9-17 |
| 2 | Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations; | Ezk 20:4 Ezk 22:2 Ezk 23:36 Ezk 33:7-9 Isa 58:1 Hos 8:1 |
| 3 | and say, Thus says the Lord Yahweh to Jerusalem: Your birth and your birth is of the land of the Canaanite; the Amorite was your father, and your mother was a Hittite. | Ezk 16:45 Ezk 21:30 Gn 11:25 Gn 11:29 Jsh 24:14 Ne 9:7 Isa 1:10 Isa 51:1 Isa 51:2 Mt 3:7 Mt 11:24 Lk 3:7 Jn 8:44 Eph 2:3 1Jn 3:10 |
| 4 | As for your birth, in the day you were born your navel was not cut, neither were you washed in water to cleanse you; you weren`t salted at all, nor swaddled at all. | Ezk 20:8 Ezk 20:13 Gn 15:13 Ex 1:11-14 Ex 2:23 Ex 2:24 Ex 5:16-21 Dt 5:6 Dt 15:15 Jsh 24:2 Ne 9:7-9 Hos 2:3 Ac 7:6 Ac 7:7 |
| 5 | No eye pitied you, to do any of these things to you, to have compassion on you; but you were cast out in the open field, for that your person was abhorred, in the day that you were born. | Ezk 2:6 Isa 49:15 Lam 2:11 Lam 2:19 Lam 4:3 Lam 4:10 |
| 6 | When I passed by you, and saw you weltering in your blood, I said to you, [Though you are] in your blood, live; yes, I said to you, [Though you are] in your blood, live. | Ex 2:24 Ex 2:25 Ex 3:7 Ex 3:8 Ac 7:34 |
| 7 | I caused you to multiply as that which grows in the field, and you did increase and wax great, and you attained to excellent ornament; your breasts were fashioned, and your hair was grown; yet you were naked and bare. | Gn 22:17 Ex 1:7 Ex 12:37 Ac 7:17 |
| 8 | Now when I passed by you, and looked at you, behold, your time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over you, and covered your nakedness: yes, I swore to you, and entered into a covenant with you, says the Lord Yahweh, and you became mine. | Ezk 16:6 Dt 7:6-8 Ru 3:9 1Sa 12:22 Isa 41:8 Isa 41:9 Isa 43:4 Isa 63:7-9 Jer 2:2 Jer 2:3 Jer 31:3 Hos 11:1 Mal 1:2 Ro 5:8 Ro 9:10-13 |
| 9 | Then washed I you with water; yes, I thoroughly washed away your blood from you, and I anointed you with oil. | Ezk 16:4 Ezk 36:25 Ps 51:7 Isa 4:4 Jn 13:8-10 1Co 6:11 1Co 10:2 Heb 9:10-14 1Jn 5:8 Rev 1:5 Rev 1:6 |
| 10 | I clothed you also with embroidered work, and shod you with sealskin, and I girded you about with fine linen, and covered you with silk. | Ezk 16:7 Ps 45:13 Ps 45:14 Isa 61:3 Isa 61:10 Lk 15:22 Rev 21:2 |
| 11 | I decked you with ornaments, and I put bracelets on your hands, and a chain on your neck. | Gn 24:22 Gn 24:47 Gn 24:53 |
| 12 | I put a ring on your nose, and ear-rings in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your head. |
| 13 | Thus was you decked with gold and silver; and your clothing was of fine linen, and silk, and embroidered work; you ate fine flour, and honey, and oil; and you were exceeding beautiful, and you did prosper to royal estate. | Ezk 16:19 Dt 8:8 Dt 32:13 Dt 32:14 Ps 45:13 Ps 45:14 Ps 81:16 Ps 147:14 Hos 2:5 |
| 14 | Your renown went forth among the nations for your beauty; for it was perfect, through my majesty which I had put on you, says the Lord Yahweh. | Dt 4:6-8 Dt 4:32-38 Jsh 2:9-11 Jsh 9:6-9 1Ki 10:1-13 1Ki 10:24-13 2Ch 2:11 2Ch 2:12 2Ch 9:23 Lam 2:15 |
| 15 | But you did trust in your beauty, and played the prostitute because of your renown, and poured out your prostitution on everyone who passed by; his it was. | Ezk 33:13 Dt 32:15 Isa 48:1 Jer 7:4 Mic 3:11 Zep 3:11 Mt 3:9 |
| 16 | You did take of your garments, and mad for you high places decked with various colors, and played the prostitute on them: [the like things] shall not come, neither shall it be [so]. | Ezk 7:20 2Ki 23:7 2Ch 28:24 Hos 2:8 |
| 17 | You did also take your beautiful jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given you, and mad for you images of men, and did play the prostitute with them; | Ezk 7:19 Ezk 23:14-21 Ex 32:1-4 Hos 2:13 Hos 10:1 |
| 18 | and you took your embroidered garments, and covered them, and did set my oil and my incense before them. |
| 19 | My bread also which I gave you, fine flour, and oil, and honey, with which I fed you, you did even set it before them for a sweet savor; and [thus] it was, says the Lord Yahweh. | Ezk 16:13 Dt 32:14-17 Hos 2:8-13 |
| 20 | Moreover you have taken your sons and your daughters, whom you have borne to me, and these have you sacrificed to them to be devoured. Were your prostitution a small matter, | Ezk 16:21 Ezk 23:4 Gn 17:7 Ex 13:2 Ex 13:12 Dt 29:11 Dt 29:12 |
| 21 | that you have slain my children, and delivered them up, in causing them to pass through [the fire] to them? | Ps 106:37 |
| 22 | In all your abominations and your prostitution you have not remembered the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare, and was weltering in your blood. | Ezk 16:3-7 Ezk 16:43-7 Ezk 16:60-63 Jer 2:2 Hos 2:3 Hos 11:1 |
| 23 | It is happen after all your wickedness, (woe, woe to you! says the Lord Yahweh,) | Ezk 2:10 Ezk 13:3 Ezk 13:18 Ezk 24:6 Jer 13:27 Zep 3:1 Mt 11:21 Mt 23:13-29 Rev 8:13 Rev 12:12 |
| 24 | that you have built to you a vaulted place, and have made you a lofty place in every street. | Ezk 16:31 Ezk 16:39 Ezk 20:28 Ezk 20:29 2Ki 21:3-7 2Ki 23:5-7 2Ki 23:11-7 2Ki 23:12-7 2Ch 33:3-7 |
| 25 | You have built your lofty place at the head of every way, and have made your beauty an abomination, and have opened your feet to everyone who passed by, and multiplied your prostitution. | Ezk 16:31 Gn 38:14 Gn 38:21 Pr 9:14 Pr 9:15 Isa 3:9 Jer 2:23 Jer 2:24 Jer 3:2 Jer 6:15 |
| 26 | You have also committed sexual immorality with the Egyptians, your neighbors, great of flesh; and have multiplied your prostitution, to provoke me to anger. | Ezk 8:10 Ezk 8:14 Ezk 20:7 Ezk 20:8 Ezk 23:3 Ezk 23:8 Ezk 23:19-21 Ex 32:4 Dt 29:16 Dt 29:17 Jsh 24:14 Isa 30:21 |
| 27 | See therefore, I have stretched out my hand over you, and have diminished your ordinary [food], and delivered you to the will of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of your lewd way. | Ezk 14:9 Isa 5:25 Isa 9:12 Isa 9:17 |
| 28 | You have played the prostitute also with the Assyrians, because you were insatiable; yes, you have played the prostitute with them, and yet you weren`t satisfied. | Ezk 23:5-9 Ezk 23:12-21 Jg 10:6 2Ki 16:7 2Ki 16:10-18 2Ki 21:11 2Ch 28:23 Jer 2:18 Jer 2:36 Hos 10:6 |
| 29 | You have moreover multiplied your prostitution to the land of traffic, to Chaldea; and yet you weren`t satisfied herewith. | Ezk 13:14-23 Jg 2:12-19 2Ki 21:9 |
| 30 | How weak is your heart, says the Lord Yahweh, seeing you do all these things, the work of an impudent prostitute; | Pr 9:13 Isa 1:3 Jer 2:12 Jer 2:13 Jer 4:22 |
| 31 | in that you build your vaulted place at the head of every way, and make your lofty place in every street, and have not been as a prostitute, in that you scorn hire. | Ezk 16:24 Ezk 16:39 |
| 32 | A wife who commits adultery! who takes strangers instead of her husband! | Ezk 16:8 Ezk 23:37 Ezk 23:45 Jer 2:25 Jer 2:28 Jer 3:1 Jer 3:8 Jer 3:9 Jer 3:20 Hos 2:2 Hos 3:1 2Co 11:2 2Co 11:3 |
| 33 | They give gifts to all prostitutes; but you give your gifts to all your lovers, and bribe them, that they may come to you on every side for your prostitution. | Gn 38:16-18 Dt 23:17 Dt 23:18 Hos 2:12 Jl 3:3 Mic 1:7 Lk 15:30 |
| 34 | You are different from [other] women in your prostitution, in that none follows you to play the prostitute; and whereas you give hire, and no hire is given to you, therefore you are different. |
| 35 | Therefore, prostitute, hear the word of Yahweh: | Isa 1:21 Isa 23:15 Isa 23:16 Jer 3:1 Jer 3:6-8 Hos 2:5 Nah 3:4 Jn 4:10 Jn 4:18 Rev 17:5 |
| 36 | Thus says the Lord Yahweh, Because your filthiness was poured out, and your nakedness uncovered through your prostitution with your lovers; and because of all the idols of your abominations, and for the blood of your children, that you gave to them; | Ezk 16:15-22 Ezk 22:15 Ezk 23:8 Ezk 24:13 Ezk 36:25 Lam 1:9 Zep 3:1 |
| 37 | therefore see, I will gather all your lovers, with whom you have taken pleasure, and all those who you have loved, with all those who you have hated; I will even gather them against you on every side, and will uncover your nakedness to them, that they may see all your nakedness. | Ezk 23:9 Ezk 23:10 Ezk 23:22-30 Jer 4:30 Jer 13:22 Jer 13:26 Jer 22:20 Lam 1:8 Lam 1:19 Hos 2:3 Hos 2:10 Hos 8:10 Nah 3:5 Nah 3:6 Rev 17:16 |
| 38 | I will judge you, as women who break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will bring on you the blood of wrath and jealousy. | Ezk 16:40 Ezk 23:45-47 Gn 38:11 Gn 38:24 Lv 20:10 Dt 22:22-24 Mt 1:18 Mt 1:19 Jn 8:3-5 |
| 39 | I will also give you into their hand, and they shall throw down your vaulted place, and break down your lofty places; and they shall strip you of your clothes, and take your beautiful jewels; and they shall leave you naked and bare. | Ezk 16:24 Ezk 16:25 Ezk 16:31 Ezk 7:22-24 Isa 27:9 |
| 40 | They shall also bring up a company against you, and they shall stone you with stones, and thrust you through with their swords. | Hab 1:6-10 Jn 8:5-7 |
| 41 | They shall burn your houses with fire, and execute judgments on you in the sight of many women; and I will cause you to cease from playing the prostitute, and you shall also give no hire any more. | Dt 13:16 2Ki 25:9 Jer 39:8 Jer 52:13 Mic 3:12 |
| 42 | So will I cause my wrath toward you to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from you, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry. | Ezk 5:13 Ezk 21:17 2Sa 21:14 Isa 1:24 Zc 6:8 |
| 43 | Because you have not remembered the days of your youth, but have raged against me in all these things; therefore, behold, I also will bring your way on your head, says the Lord Yahweh: and you shall not commit this lewdness with all your abominations. | Ezk 16:22 Ps 78:42 Ps 106:13 Jer 2:32 |
| 44 | Behold, everyone who uses proverbs shall use [this] proverb against you, saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter. | Ezk 18:2 Ezk 18:3 1Sa 24:13 |
| 45 | You are the daughter of your mother, who loathes her husband and her children; and you are the sister of your sisters, who loathed their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Amorite. | Ezk 16:8 Ezk 16:15 Ezk 16:20 Ezk 16:21 Ezk 23:37-39 Dt 5:9 Dt 12:31 Isa 1:4 Zc 11:8 Ro 1:30 Ro 1:31 |
| 46 | Your elder sister is Samaria, who dwells at your left hand, she and her daughters; and your younger sister, who dwells at your right hand, is Sodom and her daughters. | Ezk 16:51 Ezk 23:4 Ezk 23:11 Ezk 23:31-33 Jer 3:8-11 Mic 1:5 |
| 47 | Yet have you not walked in their ways, nor done after their abominations; but, as [if that were] a very little [thing], you were more corrupt than they in all your ways. | Ezk 8:17 1Ki 16:31 |
| 48 | As I live, says the Lord Yahweh, Sodom your sister has not done, she nor her daughters, as you have done, you and your daughters. | Mt 10:15 Mt 11:24 Mk 6:11 Lk 10:12 Ac 7:52 |
| 49 | Behold, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: pride, fullness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. | Ezk 28:2 Ezk 28:9 Ezk 28:17 Ezk 29:3 Gn 19:9 Ps 138:6 Pr 16:5 Pr 16:18 Pr 18:12 Pr 21:4 Isa 3:9 Isa 16:6 Dn 4:30 Dn 4:37 Dn 5:23 Ob 1:3 1Pe 5:5 |
| 50 | They were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw [good]. | Gn 13:13 Gn 18:20 Gn 19:5 Lv 18:22 Dt 23:17 2Ki 23:7 Pr 16:18 Pr 18:12 Ro 1:26 Ro 1:27 Jud 1:7 |
| 51 | Neither has Samaria committed half of your sins; but you have multiplied your abominations more than they, and have justified your sisters by all your abominations which you have done. | Lk 12:47 Lk 12:48 Ro 3:9-20 |
| 52 | You also, bear you your own shame, in that you have given judgment for your sisters; through your sins that you have committed more abominable than they, they are more righteous that you: yes, be you also confounded, and bear your shame, in that you have justified your sisters. | Ezk 16:56 Mt 7:1-5 Lk 6:37 Ro 2:1 Ro 2:10 Ro 2:26 Ro 2:27 |
| 53 | I will turn again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of your captives in the midst of them; | Ezk 16:60 Ezk 16:61 Ezk 29:14 Ezk 39:25 Jb 42:10 Ps 14:7 Ps 85:1 Ps 126:1 Isa 1:9 Jer 20:16 Jer 31:23 Jer 48:47 Jer 49:6 Jer 49:39 Jl 3:1 |
| 54 | that you may bear your own shame, and may be ashamed because of all that you have done, in that you are a comfort to them. | Ezk 16:52 Ezk 16:63 Ezk 36:31 Ezk 36:32 Jer 2:26 |
| 55 | Your sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate; and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate; and you and your daughters shall return to your former estate. | Ezk 16:53 Ezk 36:11 Mal 3:4 |
| 56 | For your sister Sodom was not mentioned by your mouth in the day of your pride, | Isa 65:5 Zep 3:11 Lk 15:28-30 Lk 18:11 |
| 57 | before your wickedness was uncovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all who are round about her, the daughters of the Philistines, who do despite to you round about. | Ezk 16:36 Ezk 16:37 Ezk 21:24 Ezk 23:18 Ezk 23:19 Ps 50:21 Lam 4:22 Hos 2:10 Hos 7:1 1Co 4:5 |
| 58 | You have borne your lewdness and your abominations, says Yahweh. | Ezk 23:49 Gn 4:13 Lam 5:7 |
| 59 | For thus says the Lord Yahweh: I will also deal with you as you have done, who have despised the oath in breaking the covenant. | Ezk 7:4 Ezk 7:8 Ezk 7:9 Ezk 14:4 Isa 3:11 Jer 2:19 Mt 7:1 Mt 7:2 Ro 2:8 Ro 2:9 |

| 61 | Then shall you remember your ways, and be ashamed, when you shall receive your sisters, your elder [sisters] and your younger; and I will give them to you for daughters, but not by your covenant. | Ezk 16:63 Ezk 20:43 Ezk 36:31 Ezk 36:32 Jb 42:5 Jb 42:6 Ps 119:59 Jer 31:18-20 Jer 50:4 Jer 50:5 |
| 62 | I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall know that I am Yahweh; | Ezk 16:60 Dn 9:27 Hos 2:18-23 |
| 63 | that you may remember, and be confounded, and never open your mouth any more, because of your shame, when I have forgiven you all that you have done, says the Lord Yahweh. | Ezk 16:61 Ezk 36:31 Ezk 36:32 Ezr 9:6 Dn 9:7 Dn 9:8 |
