Ezekiel 23:15-17
Lexham English Bible
15 belted with a belt at[a] their waist with turbans on their heads, all of them giving the appearance of adjutants,[b] the image[c] of the Babylonians;[d] Chaldea was the land of their birth. 16 And she lusted for them when her eyes saw them,[e] and she sent messengers to them at Chaldea. 17 And so the Babylonians[f] came to her for the bed of lovemaking; and they defiled her with their fornication, and she was defiled by them, and she turned from them.
