Isaiah 57:5-7
Holman Christian Standard Bible
5 who burn with lust among the oaks,
under every green tree,(A)
who slaughter children in the wadis
below the clefts of the rocks?(B)
6 Your portion is among the smooth stones of the wadi;
indeed, they are your lot.
You have even poured out a drink offering to them;
you have offered a grain offering;
should I be satisfied with these?
7 You have placed your bed
on a high and lofty mountain;(C)
you also went up there to offer sacrifice.
Jeremiah 2:20
Holman Christian Standard Bible
20 For long ago I[a] broke your yoke;(A)
I[b] tore off your chains.
You insisted, “I will not serve!”
On every high hill
and under every green tree(B)
you lie down like a prostitute.(C)

Hosea 4:13

13 They sacrifice on the mountaintops,(A)
and they burn offerings on the hills,(B)
and under oaks, poplars, and terebinths,(C)

And so your daughters act promiscuously
and your daughters-in-law commit adultery.
