For they have committed adultery, and blood is on their hands; they have committed adultery with their idols.

Yes, that is what they did inside My house.“ In addition, they sent for men who came from far away when a messenger was dispatched to them. And look how they came! You bathed, painted your eyes, and adorned yourself with jewelry for them.You sat on a luxurious couch with a table spread before it, on which you had set My incense and oil.The sound of a carefree crowd was there. Drunkards from the desert were brought in, along with common men. They put bracelets on the women’s hands and beautiful crowns on their heads.Then I said concerning this woman worn out by adultery: Will they now have illicit sex with her, even her?Yet they had sex with her as one does with a prostitute. This is how they had sex with Oholah and Oholibah, those obscene women.But righteous men will judge them the way adulteresses and those who shed blood are judged, for they are adulteresses and blood is on their hands.
