Ezekiel 23:17-21

English Standard Version

¹⁷ And the Babylonians came to her ^(A)into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their whoring lust. And after she was defiled by them, ^(B)she turned from them in disgust. ¹⁸ When she carried on her whoring so openly and flaunted her nakedness, I turned in disgust from her, as I had turned in disgust from her sister. ¹⁹ Yet she increased her whoring, ^(C)remembering the days of her youth, when she played the whore in the land of Egypt ²⁰ and lusted after her lovers there, whose members were like those of donkeys, and whose issue was like that of horses. ²¹ Thus you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when the Egyptians handled your bosom and pressed^[a] your young breasts.”
