Ezekiel 16:6-16
New Living Translation
6 “But I came by and saw you there, helplessly kicking about in your own blood. As you lay there, I said, ‘Live!’ 7 And I helped you to thrive like a plant in the field. You grew up and became a beautiful jewel. Your breasts became full, and your body hair grew, but you were still naked. 8 And when I passed by again, I saw that you were old enough for love. So I wrapped my cloak around you to cover your nakedness and declared my marriage vows. I made a covenant with you, says the Sovereign Lord, and you became mine.
9 “Then I bathed you and washed off your blood, and I rubbed fragrant oils into your skin. 10 I gave you expensive clothing of fine linen and silk, beautifully embroidered, and sandals made of fine goatskin leather. 11 I gave you lovely jewelry, bracelets, beautiful necklaces, 12 a ring for your nose, earrings for your ears, and a lovely crown for your head. 13 And so you were adorned with gold and silver. Your clothes were made of fine linen and costly fabric and were beautifully embroidered. You ate the finest foods—choice flour, honey, and olive oil—and became more beautiful than ever. You looked like a queen, and so you were! 14 Your fame soon spread throughout the world because of your beauty. I dressed you in my splendor and perfected your beauty, says the Sovereign Lord.
15 “But you thought your fame and beauty were your own. So you gave yourself as a prostitute to every man who came along. Your beauty was theirs for the asking. 16 You used the lovely things I gave you to make shrines for idols, where you played the prostitute. Unbelievable! How could such a thing ever happen?

8 “‘Later I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that you were old enough for love, I spread the corner of my garment(D) over you and covered your naked body. I gave you my solemn oath and entered into a covenant(E) with you, declares the Sovereign Lord, and you became mine.(F)
9 “‘I bathed you with water and washed(G) the blood from you and put ointments on you. 10 I clothed you with an embroidered(H) dress and put sandals of fine leather on you. I dressed you in fine linen(I) and covered you with costly garments.(J) 11 I adorned you with jewelry:(K) I put bracelets(L) on your arms and a necklace(M) around your neck, 12 and I put a ring on your nose,(N) earrings(O) on your ears and a beautiful crown(P) on your head.(Q) 13 So you were adorned with gold and silver; your clothes(R) were of fine linen and costly fabric and embroidered cloth. Your food was honey, olive oil(S) and the finest flour. You became very beautiful and rose to be a queen.(T) 14 And your fame(U) spread among the nations on account of your beauty,(V) because the splendor I had given you made your beauty perfect, declares the Sovereign Lord.(W)
15 “‘But you trusted in your beauty and used your fame to become a prostitute. You lavished your favors on anyone who passed by(X) and your beauty became his.(Y) 16 You took some of your garments to make gaudy high places,(Z) where you carried on your prostitution.(AA) You went to him, and he possessed your beauty.[b]
