Ezekiel 16:30-32
Contemporary English Version
30 I, the Lord God, say that you were so disgusting that you would have done anything to get what you wanted.[a] 31 You had sex on every street corner, and when you finished, you refused to accept money. That's worse than being a prostitute! 32 You are nothing but an unfaithful wife who would rather have sex with strangers than with your own husband.
