Behind the door and the doorpost
    you have set up your symbol;
for, deserting me, you have uncovered your bed,
    you have gone up to it,
    you have made it wide;
and you have made a bargain for yourself with them,
    you have loved their bed,
    you have looked on nakedness.[a]
You journeyed to Molech[b] with oil
    and multiplied your perfumes;
you sent your envoys far off,
    and sent down even to Sheol.

    but you did not say, “It is hopeless”;
you found new life for your strength,
    and so you were not faint.
