8. She did not abandon the prostitution she had practiced in Egypt; for in her youth men had sex with her, fondled her virgin breasts, and ravished her.
9. Therefore I handed her over to her lovers, the Assyrians for whom she lusted.
10. They exposed her nakedness, seized her sons and daughters, and killed her with the sword. She became notorious among women, and they executed judgments against her.
11. “Her sister Oholibah watched this, but she became more corrupt in her lust than her sister had been, and her acts of prostitution were more numerous than those of her sister.
12. She lusted after the Assyrians – governors and officials, warriors in full armor, horsemen riding on horses, all of them desirable young men.
13. I saw that she was defiled; both of them followed the same path.
14. But she increased her prostitution. She saw men carved on the wall, images of the Chaldeans carved in bright red,
15. wearing belts on their waists and flowing turbans on their heads, all of them looking like officers, the image of Babylonians whose native land is Chaldea.
16. When she saw them, she lusted after them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea.
17. The Babylonians crawled into bed with her. They defiled her with their lust; after she was defiled by them, she became disgusted with them.
18. When she lustfully exposed her nakedness, I was disgusted with her, just as I had been disgusted with her sister.
19. Yet she increased her prostitution, remembering the days of her youth when she engaged in prostitution in the land of Egypt.
20. She lusted after their genitals – as large as those of donkeys, and their seminal emission was as strong as that of stallions.
21. This is how you assessed the obscene conduct of your youth, when the Egyptians fondled your nipples and squeezed your young breasts.
22. “Therefore, Oholibah, this is what the sovereign Lord says: Look here, I am about to stir up against you the lovers with whom you were disgusted; I will bring them against you from every side:
23. the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them, desirable young men, all of them governors and officials, officers and nobles, all of them riding on horses.
24. They will attack you with weapons, chariots, wagons, and with a huge army; they will array themselves against you on every side with large shields, small shields, and helmets. I will assign them the task of judgment; they will punish you according to their laws.
