Ezekiel 23:43-45

Expanded Bible

⁴³ Then I said about the one who was worn out by her acts of adultery, ‘Let them continue their ·sexual sins [prostitution] with her. ·She is nothing but a prostitute [^L…even her].’ ⁴⁴ They kept going to her as they would go to a prostitute. So they continued to go to ·Samaria [^LOholah] and ·Jerusalem [^LOholibah; v. 4], these ·shameful [lewd; obscene] women. ⁴⁵ But men who ·do right [are righteous] will ·punish them as they punish [judge them with the judgment against] women who take part in adultery and who ·murder people [shed blood], because they are guilty of adultery and ·murder [^Lblood is on their hands].
