Ezekiel 23:43

41 You sat on a stately ^acouch, with a table prepared before it, ^bon which you had set My incense and My oil.

42 The sound of a carefree multitude was with her, and¹ Sabeans were brought from the wilderness with men of the common sort, who put bracelets on their² wrists and beautiful crowns on their heads.

43 Then I said concerning her who had grown old in adulteries, ‘Will they commit harlotry with her now, and she with them?’

44 Yet they went in to her, as men go in to a woman who plays the harlot; thus they went in to Oholah and Oholibah, the lewd women.

45 But righteous men will ^ajudge them after the manner of adulteresses, and after the manner of women who shed blood, because they are adulteresses, and ^bblood is on their hands.

46 “For thus says the Lord God: ^a‘Bring up an assembly against them, give them up to trouble and plunder.

Will they now commit ... - Rather, Now shall there be committed her whoredom, even this; i. e., when Israel and Judah had courted these alliances God said in wrath, "This sin too shall be committed, and so (not "yet) they went in;" the alliances were made according to their desires, and then followed the consequent punishment.
