Ezekiel 23:14-22 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

14. “Oholibah continued to be unfaithful to me. In Babylon, she saw pictures of men carved on the walls. These were pictures of Chaldean men wearing their red uniforms.

15. They wore belts around their waists and long turbans on their heads. All those men looked like chariot officers. They all looked like native-born Babylonian men,

16. and Oholibah wanted them.

17. So the Babylonian men came to her bed to have sex with her. They used her and made her so filthy that she became disgusted with them.

18. “Oholibah let everyone see that she was unfaithful. She let so many men enjoy her naked body that I became disgusted with her—just as I had become disgusted with her sister.

19. But Oholibah thought about her time as a prostitute in Egypt when she was young, and she turned to even more prostitution.

20. She remembered the lovers who excited her there, who were like animals in their sexual desires and abilities.

21. “Oholibah, you dreamed of those times when you were young, when your lovers touched and handled your young breasts.

22. So Oholibah, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You became disgusted with your lovers, but I will bring them here, and they will surround you.
