Now the serpentwas morecraftythananybeastof the fieldwhichthe LORDGodhad made.And he saidto the woman,"Indeed,has Godsaid,'You shall not eatfrom anytreeof the garden'?"
When JoramsawJehu,he said,"Is it peace,Jehu?"And he answered,"Whatpeace,solongas the harlotriesof your motherJezebeland her witchcraftsare so many?"
When Jehucameto Jezreel,Jezebelheard[of it], and she paintedher eyesand adornedher headand lookedout the window.
Surelyshe lurksas a robber,And increasesthe faithlessamong men.
Take[your] harp,walkaboutthe city,O forgottenharlot;Pluckthe stringsskillfully,sing manysongs,That you may be remembered.
And you, O desolateone, whatwill you do?Althoughyou dressin scarlet,Althoughyou decorate[yourself with] ornamentsof gold,Althoughyou enlargeyour eyeswith paint,In vainyou makeyourself beautiful.[Your] loversdespiseyou; They seekyour life.
Likewise,[I want] womento adornthemselveswith properclothing,modestlyand discreetly,not with braided hairand goldorpearlsorcostlygarments,
