Bible verse
Therefore I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, the Assyrians for whom she lusted.
Ezekiel 23:9 · BSB
The verses around it, from Ezekiel 23.
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.
8 She did not give up the prostitution she began in Egypt, when men slept with her in her youth, caressed her virgin bosom, and poured out their lust upon her.
9 Therefore I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, the Assyrians for whom she lusted.
10 They exposed her nakedness, seized her sons and daughters, and put her to the sword. Thus she became a byword among women, and they executed judgment against her.
11 Her sister Oholibah saw this, yet in her lust and prostitution she was more depraved than her sister.
12 She too lusted after the Assyrians—governors and commanders, warriors dressed in splendor, horsemen riding on steeds, all desirable young men.
13 And I saw that she too had defiled herself; both of them had taken the same path.
