Ezekiel 16:11-21

Ezekiel 16:11-21

[11] I decked  thee also with ornaments,  and I put  bracelets  upon thy hands,  and a chain  on thy neck.  [12] And I put  a jewel  on thy forehead,  and earrings  in thine ears,  and a beautiful  crown  upon thine head.  [13] Thus wast thou decked  with gold  and silver;  and thy raiment  was of fine linen,  and silk,  and broidered work;  thou didst eat  fine flour,  and honey,  and oil:  and thou wast exceeding  beautiful,  and thou didst prosper  into a kingdom.  [14] And thy renown  went forth  among the heathen  for thy beauty:  for it was perfect  through my comeliness,  which I had put  upon thee, saith  the Lord  [15] But thou didst trust  in thine own beauty,  and playedst the harlot  because of thy renown,  and pouredst out  thy fornications  on every one that passed by;  his it was. [16] And of thy garments  thou didst take,  and deckedst  thy high places  with divers colours,  and playedst the harlot  thereupon: the like things shall not come,  neither shall it be so. [17] Thou hast also taken  thy fair  jewels  of my gold  and of my silver,  which I had given  thee, and madest  to thyself images  of men,  and didst commit whoredom  with them, [18] And tookest  thy broidered  garments,  and coveredst  them: and thou hast set  mine oil  and mine incense  before  them. [19] My meat  also which I gave  thee, fine flour,  and oil,  and honey,  wherewith I fed  thee, thou hast even set  it before  them for a sweet  savour:  and thus it was, saith  the Lord  GOD.  [20] Moreover thou hast taken  thy sons  and thy daughters,  whom thou hast borne  unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed  unto them to be devoured.  Is this of thy whoredoms  a small matter,  [21] That thou hast slain  my children,  and delivered  them to cause them to pass through  the fire for them?
