³ They became prostitutes in Egypt,^(A) engaging in prostitution^(B) from their youth.^(C) In that land their breasts were fondled and their virgin bosoms caressed.^(D)

⁸ She did not give up the prostitution she began in Egypt,^(A) when during her youth men slept with her, caressed her virgin bosom and poured out their lust on her.^(B)

¹⁹ Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt.

²⁷ So I will put a stop^(A) to the lewdness and prostitution you began in Egypt. You will not look on these things with longing or remember Egypt anymore.
