Ezekiel 16:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 And I put a frontlet upon thy face, and earrings in thine ears, and a beautiful [a]crown upon thine head.
13 Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver, and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work: thou didst eat fine flour, and honey and oil, and thou wast very beautiful, and thou didst grow up into a kingdom.
14 And thy name was spread among the heathen for thy beauty: for it was perfect through my [b]beauty which I had set upon thee, saith the Lord God.
