Ezekiel 23:40-42
1599 Geneva Bible
40 And how much more is it that they sent for men to come from [a]far, unto whom a messenger was sent, and lo, they came? for whom thou didst wash thyself, and paintedst thine eyes, and deckedst thee with ornaments,
41 And satest [b]upon a costly bed, and a table prepared before it, whereupon thou hast set mine incense and mine oil.
42 And a voice of a multitude being at ease, was with her: and with the men to make the company great, were brought men of [c]Saba from the wilderness, which put bracelets upon their hands, and beautiful crowns upon their heads.
