Ezekiel 16:7-11 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

7. I made you thrive like plants of the field. You grew up and matured and became very beautiful. Your breasts were formed and your hair grew, but you were stark naked.

8. “Then I passed by you and saw you, and you were indeed at the age for love. So I spread the edge of My garment over you and covered your nakedness. I pledged Myself to you, entered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.

9. “I washed you with water, rinsed off your blood, and anointed you with oil.

10. I clothed you in embroidered cloth and provided you with leather sandals. I also wrapped you in fine linen and covered you with silk.

11. I adorned you with jewelry, putting bracelets on your wrists and a chain around your neck.
