Ezekiel 23:40-42
Lexham English Bible
40 What is worse,[a] they sent for men who come[b] from a distant place, to whom a messenger was sent to them, and look! They came! Men for whom you bathed and painted your eyes, and you adorned yourself with an ornament. 41 And you sat on a magnificent couch and a table prepared before her,[c] and my incense and my olive oil you put on her.[d] 42 And a sound of a carefree crowd was with it,[e] and in addition to these men, a crowd of drunken men[f] was brought in[g] from the desert,[h] and they put bracelets on their arms and a crown of splendor on their heads.
