Lexham English Bible
21 And you longed after the obscene conduct of your youth when your bosom was caressed by Egypt, fondling your young breasts.
22 “Therefore, Oholibah, thus says the Lord Yahweh: ‘Look! I am stirring up your lovers against you concerning whom you turned away, and I will bring them against you from all around: 23 the Babylonians[a] and all of the Chaldeans, Pekod and Shoa and Koa, all of the Assyrians[b] along with them, handsome young men,[c] governors and prefects, all of them adjutants[d] and excellent horsemen.[e]
