Ezekiel 23:40-44 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

40. What is worse, they sent for men who come from a distant place, to whom a messenger was sent to them, and look! They came! Men for whom you bathed and painted your eyes, and you adorned yourself with an ornament.

41. And you sat on a magnificent couch and a table prepared before her, and my incense and my olive oil you put on her.

42. And a sound of a carefree crowd was with it, and in addition to these men, a crowd of drunken men was brought in from the desert, and they put bracelets on their arms and a crown of splendor on their heads.

43. And I said to the one worn out with adulteries, ‘Now they will prostitute her concerning her fornication, even her.’

44. And so they went to her like going to a female prostitute; and thus they went to Oholah and to Oholibah, the women of obscene conduct.
