Ezekiel 16 — Context

7

And be increased in number like the buds of the field; and you were increased and became great, and you came to the time of love: your breasts were formed and your hair was long; but you were uncovered and without clothing.

8

Now when I went past you, looking at you, I saw that your time was the time of love; and I put my skirts over you, covering your unclothed body: and I gave you my oath and made an agreement with you, says the Lord, and you became mine.

9

Then I had you washed with water, washing away all your blood and rubbing you with oil.

10

And I had you clothed with needlework, and put leather shoes on your feet, folding fair linen about you and covering you with silk.

11

And I made you fair with ornaments and put jewels on your hands and a chain on your neck.

12

And I put a ring in your nose and ear-rings in your ears and a beautiful crown on your head.

13

So you were made beautiful with gold and silver; and your clothing was of the best linen and silk and needlework; your food was the best meal and honey and oil: and you were very beautiful.
