Ezekiel 23:26-29
Context23:26 They will strip your clothes off you and take away your beautiful jewelry. 23:27 So I will put an end to your obscene conduct and your prostitution which you have practiced in the land of Egypt. 1 You will not seek their help 2 or remember Egypt anymore.
23:28 “For this is what the sovereign Lord says: Look here, 3 I am about to deliver you over to 4 those whom you hate, to those with whom you were disgusted. 23:29 They will treat you with hatred, take away all you have labored for, 5 and leave you naked and bare. Your nakedness will be exposed, just as when you engaged in prostitution and obscene conduct. 6
