Ezekiel 23:22
Compare all
20 For she lusted for her1 paramours,
Whose flesh is like the flesh of donkeys,
And whose issue is like the issue of horses. 
21 Thus you called to remembrance the lewdness of your youth,
When the aEgyptians pressed your bosom
Because of your youthful breasts.  

Judgment on Jerusalem

22 “Therefore, Oholibah, thus says the Lord God:
a‘Behold, I will stir up your lovers against you,
From whom you have alienated yourself,
And I will bring them against you from every side: 
23 The Babylonians,
All the Chaldeans,
aPekod, Shoa, Koa,
bAll the Assyrians with them,
All of them desirable young men,
Governors and rulers,
Captains and men of renown,
All of them riding on horses. 
24 And they shall come against you
With chariots, wagons, and war-horses,
With a horde of people.
They shall array against you
Buckler, shield, and helmet all around.
‘I will delegate judgment to them,
And they shall judge you according to their judgments.
25 I will set My ajealousy against you,
And they shall deal furiously with you;
They shall remove your nose and your ears,
And your remnant shall fall by the sword;
They shall take your sons and your daughters,
And your remnant shall be devoured by fire. 
26 aThey shall also strip you of your clothes
And take away your beautiful jewelry.
