4And their names [are] Aholah the elder, And Aholibah her sister, And they are Mine, and bear sons and daughters. As to their names -- Samaria [is] Aholah, And Jerusalem [is] Aholibah.
5And go a-whoring doth Aholah under Me, And she doteth on her lovers, On the neighbouring Assyrians,
6Clothed with blue -- governors and prefects, Desirable young men all of them, Horsemen, riding on horses,
7And she giveth her whoredoms on them, The choice of the sons of Asshur, All of them -- even all on whom she doted, By all their idols she hath been defiled.
8And her whoredoms out of Egypt she hath not forsaken, For with her they lay in her youth, And they dealt with the loves of her virginity, And they pour out their whoredoms on her.
9Therefore I have given her into the hand of her lovers, Into the hand of sons of Asshur on whom she doted.
10They have uncovered her nakedness, Her sons and her daughters they have taken, And her by sword they have slain, And she is a name for women, And judgments they have done with her.
