| 1 | The word of Yahweh came again to me, saying, |
| 2 | Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother: | Ezk 16:44 Ezk 16:46 Jer 3:7-10 |
| 3 | and they played the prostitute in Egypt; they played the prostitute in their youth; there were their breasts pressed, and there was handled the bosom of their virginity. | Ezk 20:8 Lv 17:7 Dt 29:16 Jsh 24:14 |
| 4 | The names of them were Oholah the elder, and Oholibah her sister: and they became mine, and they bore sons and daughters. As for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem Oholibah. | Ezk 16:40 1Ki 12:20 |
| 5 | Oholah played the prostitute when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians [her] neighbors, | 1Ki 14:9 1Ki 14:16 1Ki 15:26 1Ki 15:30 1Ki 16:31 1Ki 16:32 1Ki 21:26 2Ki 17:7-18 |
| 6 | who were clothed with blue, governors and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding on horses. |
| 7 | She bestowed her prostitution on them, the choicest men of Assyria all of them; and on whoever she doted, with all their idols she defiled herself. | Ezk 16:15 |
| 8 | Neither has she left her prostitution since [the days of] Egypt; for in her youth they lay with her, and they handled the bosom of her virginity; and they poured out their prostitution on her. | Ezk 23:3 Ezk 23:19 Ezk 23:21 Ex 32:4 1Ki 12:28 2Ki 10:29 2Ki 17:16 |
| 9 | Therefore I delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, on whom she doted. | 2Ki 15:29 2Ki 17:3-6 2Ki 17:23-6 2Ki 18:9-12 1Ch 5:26 Hos 11:5 Rev 17:12 Rev 17:13 Rev 17:16 |
| 10 | These uncovered her nakedness; they took her sons and her daughters; and her they killed with the sword: and she became a byword among women; for they executed judgments on her. | Ezk 23:29 Ezk 16:37-41 Hos 2:3 Hos 2:10 |
| 11 | Her sister Oholibah saw this, yet was she more corrupt in her doting than she, and in her prostitution which were more than the prostitution of her sister. | Ezk 23:4 Jer 3:8 |
| 12 | She doted on the Assyrians, governors and rulers, [her] neighbors, clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding on horses, all of them desirable young men. | Ezk 23:5 Ezk 16:28 2Ki 16:7-15 2Ch 28:16-23 |
| 13 | I saw that she was defiled; they both took one way. | Ezk 23:31 2Ki 17:18 2Ki 17:19 Hos 12:1 Hos 12:2 |
| 14 | She increased her prostitution; for she saw men portrayed on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans portrayed with vermilion, | Ezk 8:10 Isa 46:1 Jer 50:2 |
| 15 | girded with girdles on their loins, with flowing turbans on their heads, all of them princes to look on, after the likeness of the Babylonians in Chaldea, the land of their birth. | 1Sa 18:4 Isa 22:21 |
| 16 | As soon as she saw them she doted on them, and sent messengers to them into Chaldea. | Ezk 16:29 Gn 3:6 Gn 6:2 Gn 39:7 2Sa 11:2 2Ki 24:1 Jb 31:1 Ps 119:37 Pr 6:25 Pr 23:33 Mt 5:28 |
| 17 | The Babylonians came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their prostitution, and she was polluted with them, and her soul was alienated from them. | Gn 10:10 Gn 11:9 |
| 18 | So she uncovered her prostitution, and uncovered her nakedness: then my soul was alienated from her, like as my soul was alienated from her sister. | Ezk 16:36 Ezk 21:24 Isa 3:9 Jer 8:12 Hos 7:1 |
| 19 | Yet she multiplied her prostitution, remembering the days of her youth, in which she had played the prostitute in the land of Egypt. | Ezk 23:14 Ezk 16:25 Ezk 16:29 Ezk 16:51 Am 4:4 |
| 20 | She doted on their paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of donkeys, and whose issue is like the issue of horses. | Ezk 16:20 Ezk 16:26 Ezk 17:15 Jer 5:8 |
| 21 | Thus you called to memory the lewdness of your youth, in the handling of your bosom by the Egyptians for the breasts of your youth. |
| 22 | Therefore, Oholibah, thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will raise up your lovers against you, from whom your soul is alienated, and I will bring them against you on every side: | Ezk 23:9 Ezk 23:28 Ezk 16:37 Isa 10:5 Isa 10:6 Isa 39:3 Isa 39:4 Hab 1:6-10 Rev 17:16 |
| 23 | the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod and Shoa and Koa, [and] all the Assyrians with them; desirable young men, governors and rulers all of them, princes and men of renown, all of them riding on horses. | Ezk 21:19-27 2Ki 20:14-17 2Ki 25:1-3 |
| 24 | They shall come against you with weapons, chariots, and wagons, and with a company of peoples; they shall set themselves against you with buckler and shield and helmet round about; and I will commit the judgment to them, and they shall judge you according to their judgments. | Ezk 26:10 Jer 47:3 Nah 2:3 Nah 2:4 Nah 3:2 Nah 3:3 |
| 25 | I will set my jealousy against you, and they shall deal with you in fury; they shall take away your nose and your ears; and your residue shall fall by the sword: they shall take your sons and your daughters; and your residue shall be devoured by the fire. | Ezk 5:13 Ezk 8:1-18 Ezk 16:38-42 Ex 34:14 Dt 29:20 Dt 32:21 Dt 32:22 Pr 6:34 So 8:6 Zep 1:18 |
| 26 | They shall also strip you of your clothes, and take away your beautiful jewels. | Ezk 23:29 Ezk 16:16 Ezk 16:37 Ezk 16:39 Jer 13:22 Hos 2:3 Hos 2:9 Hos 2:10 Rev 17:16 Rev 18:14-17 |
| 27 | Thus will I make your lewdness to cease from you, and your prostitution [brought] from the land of Egypt; so that you shall not lift up your eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more. | Ezk 16:41 Ezk 22:15 Isa 27:9 Mic 5:10-14 Zc 13:2 |
| 28 | For thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will deliver you into the hand of them whom you hate, into the hand of them from whom your soul is alienated; | Ezk 23:17 Ezk 23:22 Ezk 16:37 Jer 21:7-10 Jer 24:8 Jer 34:20 |
| 29 | and they shall deal with you in hatred, and shall take away all your labor, and shall leave you naked and bare; and the nakedness of your prostitution shall be uncovered, both your lewdness and your prostitution. | Ezk 23:25 Ezk 23:26 Ezk 23:45-47 Ezk 16:39 Dt 28:47-51 2Sa 13:15 |
| 30 | These things shall be done to you, because you have played the prostitute after the nations, and because you are polluted with their idols. | Ezk 23:12-21 Ezk 6:9 Ps 106:35-38 Jer 2:18-20 Jer 16:11 Jer 16:12 Jer 22:8 Jer 22:9 |
| 31 | You have walked in the way of your sister; therefore will I give her cup into your hand. | Ezk 23:13 Ezk 16:47-51 Jer 3:8-11 |
| 32 | Thus says the Lord Yahweh: You shall drink of your sister`s cup, which is deep and large; you shall be laughed to scorn and had in derision; it contains much. | Ps 60:3 Isa 51:17 Jer 25:15-28 Jer 48:26 Mt 20:22 Mt 20:23 Rev 16:19 Rev 18:6 |
| 33 | You shall be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, with the cup of astonishment and desolation, with the cup of your sister Samaria. | Jer 25:27 Hab 2:16 |
| 34 | You shall even drink it and drain it out, and you shall gnaw the broken pieces of it, and shall tear your breasts; for I have spoken it, says the Lord Yahweh. | Ps 75:8 Isa 51:17 |
| 35 | Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Because you have forgotten me, and cast me behind your back, therefore bear you also your lewdness and your prostitution. | Ezk 22:12 Isa 17:10 Jer 2:32 Jer 3:21 Jer 13:25 Jer 23:27 Jer 32:33 Hos 8:14 Hos 13:6 Ro 1:28 |
| 36 | Yahweh said moreover to me: Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? then declare to them their abominations. | Ezk 20:4 Ezk 22:2 Jer 1:10 1Co 6:2 1Co 6:3 |
| 37 | For they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands; and with their idols have they committed adultery; and they have also caused their sons, whom they bore to me, to pass through [the fire] to them to be devoured. | Ezk 23:5 Ezk 16:32 Hos 1:2 Hos 3:1 |
| 38 | Moreover this they have done to me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my Sabbaths. | Ezk 7:20 Ezk 8:5-16 2Ki 21:4 2Ki 21:7 2Ki 23:11 2Ki 23:12 |
| 39 | For when they had slain their children to their idols, then they came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it; and, behold, thus have they done in the midst of my house. | Isa 3:9 Jer 7:8-11 Jer 11:15 Mic 3:11 Jn 18:28 |
| 40 | Furthermore you have sent for men who come from far, to whom a messenger was sent, and, behold, they came; for whom you did wash yourself, paint your eyes, and deck yourself with ornaments, | Ezk 23:13 Isa 57:9 |
| 41 | and sit on a stately bed, with a table prepared before it, whereupon you did set my incense and my oil. | Es 1:6 Pr 7:16 Pr 7:17 Isa 57:7 Am 2:8 Am 6:4 |
| 42 | The voice of a multitude being at ease was with her: and with men of the common sort were brought drunkards from the wilderness; and they put bracelets on the hands of them [twain], and beautiful crowns on their heads. | Ex 32:6 Ex 32:18 Ex 32:19 Hos 13:6 Am 6:1-6 |
| 43 | Then said I of her who was old in adulteries, Now will they play the prostitute with her, and she [with them]. | Ezr 9:7 Ps 106:6 Jer 13:23 Dn 9:16 |
| 44 | They went in to her, as they go in to a prostitute: so went they in to Oholah and to Oholibah, the lewd women. | Ezk 23:3 Ezk 23:9-13 |
| 45 | Righteous men, they shall judge them with the judgment of adulteresses, and with the judgment of women who shed blood; because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands. | Ezk 23:36 Jer 5:14 Hos 6:5 Zc 1:6 Jn 8:3-7 |
| 46 | For thus says the Lord Yahweh: I will bring up a company against them, and will give them to be tossed back and forth and robbed. | Ezk 23:22-26 Ezk 16:40 Jer 25:9 |
| 47 | The company shall stone them with stones, and dispatch them with their swords; they shall kill their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses with fire. | Ezk 23:25 Ezk 23:29 Ezk 9:6 Ezk 16:41 Jer 33:4 Jer 33:5 |
| 48 | Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may be taught not to do after your lewdness. | Ezk 23:27 Ezk 6:6 Ezk 22:15 Ezk 36:25 Mic 5:11-14 Zep 1:3 |
| 49 | They shall recompense your lewdness on you, and you shall bear the sins of your idols; and you shall know that I am the Lord Yahweh. | Ezk 7:4 Ezk 7:9 Ezk 9:10 Ezk 11:21 Ezk 16:43 Ezk 22:31 Isa 59:18 |
