2 “Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother. 3 And they acted as prostitutes in Egypt; in their youth they were prostitutes; there were squeezed their breasts, and there were pressed the nipples of their virginity. 4 And their names were Oholah the elder, and Oholibah her sister. And they were unto Me, and they gave birth to sons and daughters. And their names—Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem is Oholibah. 5 And Oholah prostituted herself under Me, and she lusted over her lovers, toward Assyria, warriors 6 clothed in purple, governors and commanders, young men of desire all of them, horsemen riding on horses. 7 And she gave her prostitutions with them, choice men of Assyria, all of them; and with all for whom she lusted, with all their idols she defiled herself. 8 And her prostitutions from Egypt she has not left behind; for they had lain with her in her youth, and they pressed the nipples of her virginity, and poured out their lust upon her. 9 Therefore I have given her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the sons of Assyria, for whom she lusted. 10 They have uncovered her nakedness; her sons and daughters they took away, and with the sword they slew her. And she has become a byword among the women, and they executed when judgment against her. Ezekiel 23:2-10, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
