F 4 On the day you were born G your cord was not cut, nor were you washed with water to make you clean, nor were you rubbed with salt or wrapped in cloths. Rather, you were thrown out into the open field, for on the day you were born you were despised. You grew and developed and entered puberty. Your breasts had formed and your hair had grown, yet you were stark naked. I gave you my solemn oath and entered into a covenant L with you, declares the Sovereign Lord , and you became mine.
I dressed you in fine linen P and covered you with costly garments. Q 11 I adorned you with jewelry: R I put bracelets S on your arms and a necklace T around your neck, 12 and I put a ring on your nose, U earrings V on your ears and a beautiful crown W on your head. X 13 So you were adorned with gold and silver; your clothes Y were of fine linen and costly fabric and embroidered cloth. Your food was honey, olive oil Z and the finest flour.
You became very beautiful and rose to be a queen. AA 14 And your fame AB spread among the nations on account of your beauty, AC because the splendor I had given you made your beauty perfect, declares the Sovereign Lord.
You lavished your favors on anyone who passed by AE and your beauty became his. AF 16 You took some of your garments to make gaudy high places, AG where you carried on your prostitution. AH You went to him, and he possessed your beauty. AI 18 And you took your embroidered clothes to put on them, and you offered my oil and incense AJ before them. That is what happened, declares the Sovereign Lord. Was your prostitution not enough?
AN 21 You slaughtered my children and sacrificed them to the idols. AO 22 In all your detestable practices and your prostitution you did not remember the days of your youth, AP when you were naked and bare, AQ kicking about in your blood.
