Jerusalem As An Adulterous Wife

Later I passed by, and when I looked at you
and saw that you were old enough for love,

I spread the corner of my garment over you
and covered your naked body.

I gave you my solemn oath
and entered into a covenant with you,

declares the Sovereign LORD,
and you became mine. 

I bathed you with water and washed the blood from you
and put ointments on you.

I clothed you with an embroidered dress
and put sandals of fine leather on you.

I dressed you in fine linen
and covered you with costly garments.

I adorned you with jewelry:
I put bracelets on your arms
and a necklace around your neck,

and I put a ring on your nose,
earrings on your ears and a beautiful crown on your head.

So you were adorned with gold and silver;
your clothes were of fine linen
and costly fabric and embroidered cloth.

Your food was honey, olive oil and the finest flour.

You became very beautiful
and rose to be a queen.

And your fame spread among the nations
on account of your beauty,

because the splendor I had given you
made your beauty perfect,

declares the Sovereign LORD. 

Ezekiel 16: 8-14
