Bible verse
and they played in Egypt, prostituting themselves from their youth. Their breasts were fondled there, and their virgin bosoms caressed.
Ezekiel 23:3 · BSB
The verses around it, from Ezekiel 23.
1 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 “Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother,
3 and they played in Egypt, prostituting themselves from their youth. Their breasts were fondled there, and their virgin bosoms caressed.
4 The older was named Oholah, and her sister was named Oholibah. They became Mine and gave birth to sons and daughters. As for their identities, Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem.
5 Oholah prostituted herself while she was still Mine. She lusted after her lovers, the Assyrians—warriors
6 clothed in blue, governors and commanders, all desirable young men, horsemen mounted on steeds.
7 She offered sexual favors to all the elite of Assyria. She defiled herself with all the idols of those for whom she lusted.
