Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
9 Then I had you washed with water, washing away all your blood and rubbing you with oil.
10 And I had you clothed with needlework, and put leather shoes on your feet, folding fair linen about you and covering you with silk.
11 And I made you fair with ornaments and put jewels on your hands and a chain on your neck.
12 And I put a ring in your nose and ear-rings in your ears and a beautiful crown on your head.
13 So you were made beautiful with gold and silver; and your clothing was of the best linen and silk and needlework; your food was the best meal and honey and oil: and you were very beautiful.
14 You were so beautiful that the story of you went out into all nations; you were completely beautiful because of my glory which I had put on you, says the Lord.
15 But you put your faith in the fact that you were beautiful, acting like a loose woman because you were widely talked of, and offering your cheap love to everyone who went by, whoever it might be.
