Ezekiel 23:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Thus she committed her whoredom with them, even with all them that were the chosen men of Assyria, and with all on whom she doted, and defiled herself with all their idols.
8 Neither left she her fornications, learned of the Egyptians: for in her youth they [a]lay with her, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured their whoredom upon her.
9 Wherefore I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, even into the hands of the Assyrians, upon whom she doted.
