Jerusalem’s Harlotry

15 (A)“But you trusted in your own beauty, (B)played the harlot because of your fame, and poured out your harlotry on everyone passing by who would have it. 16 (C)You took some of your garments and adorned multicolored [a]high places for yourself, and played the harlot on them. Such things should not happen, nor be. 17 You have also taken your beautiful jewelry from My gold and My silver, which I had given you, and made for yourself male images and played the harlot with them. 18 You took your embroidered garments and covered them, and you set My oil and My incense before them. 19 Also (D)My food which I gave you—the pastry of fine flour, oil, and honey which I fed you—you set it before them as [b]sweet incense; and so it was,” says the Lord God.
