"She bestowedher harlotrieson them, allof whom [were] the choicestmenof Assyria;and with allwhomshe lustedafter, with alltheir idolsshe defiledherself.
The sonsof Shem[were] Elamand Asshurand Arpachshadand Ludand Aram.
Thus they becameuncleanin their practices,And playedthe harlotin their deeds.
"But you trustedin your beautyand playedthe harlotbecauseof your fame,and you pouredout your harlotrieson everypasser-bywho might be [willing].
"I saidto them, 'Castaway,eachof you, the detestablethingsof his eyes,and do not defileyourselves with the idolsof Egypt;I am the LORDyour God.'
Thesethingswill be doneto you because you have playedthe harlotwith the nations,becauseyou have defiledyourself with their idols.
I knowEphraim,and Israelis not hiddenfrom Me; For now,O Ephraim,you have playedthe harlot,Israelhas defileditself.
In the houseof IsraelI have seena horriblething;Ephraim'sharlotryis there,Israelhas defileditself.
