Bible verse
So you were adorned with gold and silver, and your clothing was made of fine linen, silk, and embroidered cloth. You ate fine flour, honey, and oil. You became very beautiful and rose to be queen.
Ezekiel 16:13 · BSB
The verses around it, from Ezekiel 16.
9 Then I bathed you with water, rinsed off your blood, and anointed you with oil.
10 I clothed you in embroidered cloth and gave you sandals of fine leather. I wrapped you in fine linen and covered you with silk.
11 I adorned you with jewelry, and I put bracelets on your wrists and a chain around your neck.
12 I put a ring in your nose, earrings on your ears, and a beautiful crown upon your head.
13 So you were adorned with gold and silver, and your clothing was made of fine linen, silk, and embroidered cloth. You ate fine flour, honey, and oil. You became very beautiful and rose to be queen.
14 Your fame spread among the nations on account of your beauty, for it was perfect in the splendor I bestowed on you, declares the Lord GOD.
15 But because of your fame, you trusted in your beauty and played the harlot. You lavished your favors on everyone who passed by, and your beauty was theirs for the asking.
16 You took some of your garments and made colorful high places for yourself, and on them you prostituted yourself. Such things should not have happened; never should they have occurred!
17 You also took the fine jewelry of gold and silver I had given you, and you made male idols with which to prostitute yourself.
