Ezekiel 16:36-38

16:36 This is what the sovereign Lord says: Because your lust ¹  was poured out and your nakedness was uncovered in your prostitution with your lovers, and because of all your detestable idols, and because of the blood of your children you have given to them, 16:37 therefore, take note: I am about to gather all your lovers whom you enjoyed, both all those you loved and all those you hated. I will gather them against you from all around, and I will expose your nakedness to them, and they will see all your nakedness. ²  16:38 I will punish you as an adulteress and murderer deserves. ³  I will avenge your bloody deeds with furious rage. ⁴
