Ezekiel 23:16-18

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁶ When she saw them she doted upon them, and sent messengers to them in Chalde′a. ¹⁷ And the Babylonians came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their lust; and after she was polluted by them, she turned from them in disgust. ¹⁸ When she carried on her harlotry so openly and flaunted her nakedness, I turned in disgust from her, as I had turned from her sister.
