Flowing turbans on their heads,
All of them looking like captains,
In the manner of the Babylonians of Chaldea,
The land of their nativity.
And they defiled her with their immorality;
So she was defiled by them, aand alienated herself from them.
Then aI balienated Myself from her,
As I had alienated Myself from her sister.
In calling to remembrance the days of her youth,
aWhen she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt.
Whose flesh is like the flesh of donkeys,
And whose issue is like the issue of horses.
When the aEgyptians pressed your bosom
Because of your youthful breasts.
| << Ezekiel 23:16 | Ezekiel 23:18 >> |
