Isaiah 57:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
7 Upon a high and lofty mountain
you have set your bed,
and there you went up to offer sacrifice.
8 Behind the door and the doorpost
you have set up your symbol;
for, in deserting me,[a] you have uncovered your bed,
you have gone up to it,
you have made it wide;
and you have made a bargain for yourself with them,
you have loved their bed,
you have gazed on their nakedness.[b]
9 You journeyed to Molech[c] with oil,
and multiplied your perfumes;
you sent your envoys far away,
and sent down even to Sheol.
