Ezekiel 16:7-9
Holman Christian Standard Bible
7 I made you thrive[a] like plants of the field.(A) You grew up and matured and became very beautiful.[b] Your breasts were formed and your hair grew, but you were stark naked.
8 “Then I passed by you and saw you, and you were indeed at the age for love. So I spread the edge of My garment over you and covered your nakedness.(B) I pledged Myself to you,(C) entered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine.”(D) This is the declaration of the Lord God. 9 “I washed you with water, rinsed off your blood, and anointed you with oil.
