Ezekiel 23:4-49
4
Their names: Oholah the elder and Oholibah her sister; they were Mine, and they bore sons and daughters. As for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem is Oholibah.
5
Oholah committed adultery even though she was Mine; and she lusted for her lovers, the neighboring Assyrians,
6
who were clothed in purple, captains and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding on horses.
7
Thus she committed her adultery with them, all of them choice men of Assyria; and with all for whom she lusted, with all their idols, she defiled herself.
8
She has never given up her harlotry brought from Egypt, for in her youth they had lain with her, fondled her virgin breasts, and poured out their immorality upon her.
9
Therefore I have delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, for whom she lusted.
10
They uncovered her nakedness, took away her sons and daughters, and slew her with the sword; she became a byword among women, for they had executed judgment on her.
11
Now although her sister Oholibah saw this, she became more corrupt in her lust than she, and in her harlotry, more than her sister's harlotry.
12
She lusted for the neighboring Assyrians, captains and rulers, clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding on horses, all of them desirable young men.
13
Then I saw that she was defiled; both the same way.
14
But she added to her harlotry; she looked at men portrayed on the wall, images of Chaldeans portrayed in vermilion,
15
girded with waistbands around their waists, flowing turbans on their heads, all of them looking like officers, in the manner of the Babylonians of Chaldea, the land of their birth.
16
As soon as her eyes saw them, she lusted for them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea.
17
And the Babylonians came to her, into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their immorality; so she was defiled by them, and her soul was alienated from them.
18
So she uncovered her harlotry and uncovered her nakedness. Then My soul was alienated from her, just as My soul was alienated from her sister.
19
Yet she multiplied her harlotry in calling to remembrance the days of her youth, when she had committed adultery in the land of Egypt.
20
For she lusted for her 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 Egyptians fondled your nipples because of your youthful breasts.
22
Therefore, Oholibah, thus says the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will stir up your lovers against you, from whom your soul is alienated, and I will bring them against you from every side:
23
The Babylonians, all the Chaldeans, Pekod, Shoa, Koa, all the Assyrians with them, all of them desirable young men, governors and rulers, officers and men of renown, all of them riding on horses.
24
And they shall come against you with chariots, wagons, and wheels, with a company of people. They shall array against you buckler, shield, and helmet all around. I will entrust judgment to them, and they shall judge you according to their judgments.
25
I will set My jealousy against you, and they shall deal furiously with you; they shall remove your nose and your ears, and the rest of you shall fall by the sword; they shall take your sons and your daughters, and the rest of you shall be devoured by fire.
26
They shall also strip you of your clothes and take away your beautiful jewelry.
27
Thus I will make you cease your lewdness and your harlotry brought from the land of Egypt, so that you will not lift your eyes to them, nor remember Egypt anymore.
28
For thus says the Lord Jehovah: Surely I will deliver you into the hand of those you hate, into the hand of those from whom your soul is alienated.
29
They will deal hatefully with you, take away all you have worked for, and leave you naked and bare. The nakedness of your adultery shall be uncovered, both your lewdness and your harlotry.
30
I will do these things to you because you have gone whoring after the nations, because you have become defiled by their idols.
31
You have walked in the way of your sister; therefore I will put her cup into your hand.
32
Thus says the Lord Jehovah: You shall drink of your sister's cup, deep and wide; you shall be laughed to scorn and held in derision; for it contains much.
33
You will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, the cup of horror and desolation, the cup of your sister Samaria.
34
You shall drink and drain it, you shall break its shards, and tear off your own breasts; for I have spoken, declares the Lord Jehovah.
35
Therefore thus says the Lord Jehovah: Because you have forgotten Me and cast Me behind your back, therefore you shall bear the penalty of your lewdness and your harlotry.
36
Jehovah also said to me: Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? Then declare to them their abominations.
37
For they have committed adultery, and blood is on their hands. They have committed adultery with their idols, and even sacrificed their sons whom they bore to Me, passing them through the fire, to devour them.
38
Moreover they have done this to Me: They have defiled My sanctuary on the same day and profaned My Sabbaths.
39
For after they had slain their children to their idols, on the same day they came into My sanctuary to profane it; and, lo, this they have done in the midst of My house.
40
Furthermore you sent for men to come from afar, to whom a messenger was sent; and there they came. And you washed yourself for them, painted your eyes, and adorned yourself with ornaments.
41
You sat on a stately couch, with a table prepared before it, on which you had set My incense and My oil.
42
And the sound of a multitude at ease was with her, and drunkards were brought from the wilderness with men of the common sort, who put bracelets on their wrists and beautiful crowns on their heads.
43
Then I said concerning her who was worn out in adulteries, Will they commit adultery with her now, and she with them?
44
Yet they went in to her, as men go in to a woman of harlotry; thus they went in to Oholah and Oholibah, the lewd women.
45
And righteous men will judge them after the manner of adulteresses, and after the manner of women who shed blood, because they are adulteresses, and blood is on their hands.
46
For thus says the Lord Jehovah: Bring up an assembly against them, give them up to terror and plunder.
47
And the company shall stone them with stones and cut them down with their swords. They shall slay their sons and their daughters, and burn their houses with fire.
48
Thus I will bring an end to lewdness from the land, that all women may be taught not to do according to your lewdness.
49
And they shall repay you for your lewdness, and you shall pay for your idolatrous sins. And you shall know that I am the Lord Jehovah.
cast thy law

but you have done more evil than all who were before you, for you have gone and made for yourself other gods and molten images to provoke Me to anger, and have cast Me behind your back;
Psalm 50:17
seeing as how you hate correction, and cast off My Words behind you?
Ezekiel 33:3-5
3
when he sees the sword coming upon the land, if he blows the shofar and warns the people,
4
then whoever listens to hear the sound of the shofar and does not take warning, if the sword comes and takes him away, his blood shall be on his own head.
5
He heard the sound of the shofar, but did not take warning; his blood shall be upon himself. But he who takes warning will save his soul.

27
Her rulers in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, and to get dishonest gain.
