Ezekiel 16:6-8

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁶ I passed by you, and saw you flailing about in your blood. As you lay in your blood, I said to you, ‘Live! ⁷ and grow up^[a] like a plant of the field.’ You grew up and became tall and arrived at full womanhood;^[b] your breasts were formed, and your hair had grown; yet you were naked and bare.

⁸ I passed by you again and looked on you; you were at the age for love. I spread the edge of my cloak over you, and covered your nakedness: I pledged myself to you and entered into a covenant with you, says the Lord God, and you became mine.
