For you have played the harlot against your God.
You have made love for bhire on every threshing floor.

And cshall eat unclean things in Assyria.
4 They shall not offer wine offerings to the Lord,
Nor ashall their bsacrifices be pleasing to Him.
It shall be like bread of mourners to them;
All who eat it shall be defiled.
For their bread shall be for their own life;
It shall not come into the house of the Lord.
Nor ashall their bsacrifices be pleasing to Him.
It shall be like bread of mourners to them;
All who eat it shall be defiled.
For their bread shall be for their own life;
It shall not come into the house of the Lord.
6 For indeed they are gone because of destruction.
Egypt shall gather them up;
Memphis shall bury them.
aNettles shall possess their valuables of silver;
Thorns shall be in their tents.
