16:1 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
16:2 Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,
16:3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto Jerusalem; Thy
birth and thy nativity [is] of the land of Canaan; thy father
[was] an Amorite, and thy mother an Hittite.
16:4 And [as for] thy nativity, in the day thou wast born thy
navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed in water to supple
[thee]; thou wast not salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
16:5 None eye pitied thee, to do any of these unto thee, to
have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out in the open
field, to the loathing of thy person, in the day that thou wast
born.
16:6 And when I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in
thine own blood, I said unto thee [when thou wast] in thy
blood, Live; yea, I said unto thee [when thou wast] in thy
blood, Live.
16:7 I have caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field,
and thou hast increased and waxen great, and thou art come to
excellent ornaments: [thy] breasts are fashioned, and thine
hair is grown, whereas thou [wast] naked and bare.
16:8 Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold,
thy time [was] the time of love; and I spread my skirt over
thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and
entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou
becamest mine.
16:9 Then washed I thee with water; yea, I thoroughly washed
away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
16:10 I clothed thee also with broidered work, and shod thee
with badgers' skin, and I girded thee about with fine linen,
and I covered thee with silk.
16:11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and I put bracelets
upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck.
16:12 And I put a jewel on thy forehead, and earrings in
thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thine head.
16:13 Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy
raiment [was of] fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; thou
didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil: and thou wast
exceeding beautiful, and thou didst prosper into a kingdom.
16:14 And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy
beauty: for it [was] perfect through my comeliness, which I had
put upon thee, saith the Lord GOD.
16:15 But thou didst trust in thine own beauty, and playedst
the harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy
fornications on every one that passed by; his it was.
16:16 And of thy garments thou didst take, and deckedst thy
high places with divers colours, and playedst the harlot
thereupon: [the like things] shall not come, neither shall it
be [so].
16:17 Thou hast also taken thy fair jewels of my gold and of
my silver, which I had given thee, and madest to thyself images
of men, and didst commit whoredom with them,
16:18 And tookest thy broidered garments, and coveredst them:
and thou hast set mine oil and mine incense before them.
16:19 My meat also which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil,
and honey, [wherewith] I fed thee, thou hast even set it before
them for a sweet savour: and [thus] it was, saith the Lord GOD.
16:20 Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters,
whom thou hast borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed
unto them to be devoured. [Is this] of thy whoredoms a small
matter,
16:21 That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them to
cause them to pass through [the fire] for them?
16:22 And in all thine abominations and thy whoredoms thou
hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked
and bare, [and] wast polluted in thy blood.
16:23 And it came to pass after all thy wickedness, (woe, woe
unto thee! saith the Lord GOD;)
16:24 [That] thou hast also built unto thee an eminent place,
and hast made thee an high place in every street.
16:25 Thou hast built thy high place at every head of the
way, and hast made thy beauty to be abhorred, and hast opened
thy feet to every one that passed by, and multiplied thy
whoredoms.
16:26 Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians
thy neighbours, great of flesh; and hast increased thy
whoredoms, to provoke me to anger.
16:27 Behold, therefore I have stretched out my hand over
thee, and have diminished thine ordinary [food], and delivered
thee unto the will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the
Philistines, which are ashamed of thy lewd way.
16:28 Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians,
because thou wast unsatiable; yea, thou hast played the harlot
with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied.
16:29 Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the
land of Canaan unto Chaldea; and yet thou wast not satisfied
herewith.
16:30 How weak is thine heart, saith the Lord GOD, seeing
thou doest all these [things], the work of an imperious whorish
woman;
16:31 In that thou buildest thine eminent place in the head
of every way, and makest thine high place in every street; and
hast not been as an harlot, in that thou scornest hire;
16:32 [But as] a wife that committeth adultery, [which]
taketh strangers instead of her husband!
16:33 They give gifts to all whores: but thou givest thy
gifts to all thy lovers, and hirest them, that they may come
unto thee on every side for thy whoredom.
16:34 And the contrary is in thee from [other] women in thy
whoredoms, whereas none followeth thee to commit whoredoms: and
in that thou givest a reward, and no reward is given unto thee,
therefore thou art contrary.
16:35 Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the LORD:
16:36 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy filthiness was
poured out, and thy nakedness discovered through thy whoredoms
with thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations,
and by the blood of thy children, which thou didst give unto
them;
16:37 Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with
whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all [them] that thou hast
loved, with all [them] that thou hast hated; I will even gather
them round about against thee, and will discover thy nakedness
unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
16:38 And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and
shed blood are judged; and I will give thee blood in fury and
jealousy.
16:39 And I will also give thee into their hand, and they
shall throw down thine eminent place, and shall break down thy
high places: they shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and
shall take thy fair jewels, and leave thee naked and bare.
16:40 They shall also bring up a company against thee, and
they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with
their swords.
16:41 And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and execute
judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and I will
cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou also
shalt give no hire any more.
16:42 So will I make my fury toward thee to rest, and my
jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will
be no more angry.
16:43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth,
but hast fretted me in all these [things]; behold, therefore I
also will recompense thy way upon [thine] head, saith the Lord
GOD: and thou shalt not commit this lewdness above all thine
abominations.
16:44 Behold, every one that useth proverbs shall use [this]
proverb against thee, saying, As [is] the mother, [so is] her
daughter.
16:45 Thou [art] thy mother's daughter, that loatheth her
husband and her children; and thou [art] the sister of thy
sisters, which loathed their husbands and their children: your
mother [was] an Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
16:46 And thine elder sister [is] Samaria, she and her
daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister,
that dwelleth at thy right hand, [is] Sodom and her daughters.
16:47 Yet hast thou not walked after their ways, nor done
after their abominations: but, as [if that were] a very little
[thing], thou wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways.
16:48 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, Sodom thy sister hath
not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and
thy daughters.
16:49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom,
pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her
and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of
the poor and needy.
16:50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before
me: therefore I took them away as I saw [good].
16:51 Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins; but
thou hast multiplied thine abominations more than they, and
hast justified thy sisters in all thine abominations which thou
hast done.
16:52 Thou also, which hast judged thy sisters, bear thine
own shame for thy sins that thou hast committed more abominable
than they: they are more righteous than thou: yea, be thou
confounded also, and bear thy shame, in that thou hast
justified thy sisters.
16:53 When I shall bring again their captivity, the captivity
of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and
her daughters, then [will I bring again] the captivity of thy
captives in the midst of them:
16:54 That thou mayest bear thine own shame, and mayest be
confounded in all that thou hast done, in that thou art a
comfort unto them.
16:55 When thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return
to their former estate, and Samaria and her daughters shall
return to their former estate, then thou and thy daughters
shall return to your former estate.
16:56 For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in
the day of thy pride,
16:57 Before thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time of
[thy] reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all [that are]
round about her, the daughters of the Philistines, which
despise thee round about.
16:58 Thou hast borne thy lewdness and thine abominations,
saith the LORD.
16:59 For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even deal with thee
as thou hast done, which hast despised the oath in breaking the
covenant.
16:60 Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in
the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an
everlasting covenant.
16:61 Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when
thou shalt receive thy sisters, thine elder and thy younger:
and I will give them unto thee for daughters, but not by thy
covenant.
16:62 And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou
shalt know that I [am] the LORD:
16:63 That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and never
open thy mouth any more because of thy shame, when I am
pacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the
Lord GOD.
