24 that ayou also built for yourself a shrine, and bmade a high place for yourself in every street.  
25 You built your high places aat the head of every road, and made your beauty to be abhorred. You offered yourself to everyone who passed by, and multiplied your acts of harlotry.  
26 You also committed harlotry with athe Egyptians, your very fleshly neighbors, and increased your acts of harlotry to bprovoke Me to anger.  
27 “Behold, therefore, I stretched out My hand against you, diminished your1 allotment, and gave you up to the will of those who hate you, athe daughters of the Philistines, who were ashamed of your lewd behavior.  
28 You also played the harlot with the aAssyrians, because you were insatiable; indeed you played the harlot with them and still were not satisfied.  
29 Moreover you multiplied your acts of harlotry as far as the land of the trader, aChaldea; and even then you were not satisfied.  
30 “How degenerate is your heart!” says the Lord God, “seeing you do all these things, the deeds of a brazen harlot.

Jerusalem’s Adultery

31 a“You erected your shrine at the head of every road, and built your1 high place in every street. Yet you were not like a harlot, because you scorned bpayment.  
32 You are an adulterous wife, who takes strangers instead of her husband.
33 Men make payment to all harlots, but ayou made your payments to all your lovers, and1 hired them to come to you from all around for your harlotry.  
34 You are the opposite of other women in your harlotry, because no one solicited you to be a harlot. In that you gave payment but no payment was given you, therefore you are the opposite.”
