Context
NET ©

You took some of your clothing and made for yourself decorated high places; you engaged in prostitution on them. You went to him to become his. 1

NASB ©

"You took some of your clothes, made for yourself high places of various colors and played the harlot on them, which should never come about nor happen.

NLT ©

You used the lovely things I gave you to make shrines for idols, where you carried out your acts of prostitution. Unbelievable! How could such a thing ever happen?

MSG ©

You took your fine dresses and made "tents" of them, using them as brothels in which you practiced your trade. This kind of thing should never happen, never.

BBE ©

And you took your robes and made high places for yourself ornamented with every colour, acting like a loose woman on them, without shame or fear.

NRSV ©

You took some of your garments, and made for yourself colorful shrines, and on them played the whore; nothing like this has ever been or ever shall be.

NKJV ©

neither shall it be [so].

NET © Notes

tc The text as written in the MT is incomprehensible (“not coming [plural] and he will not”). Driver has suggested a copying error of similar-sounding words, specifically לֹא (lo’) for לוֹ (lo). The feminine participle בָאוֹת (vaot) has also been read as the feminine perfect בָאת (vat). See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 1:228, n. 15.b, and D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 1:486, n. 137.
