Ezekiel 16:4-8

Ezekiel 16:4-8 NCV

On the day you were born, your cord was not cut. You were not washed with water to clean you. You were not rubbed with salt or wrapped in cloths. No one felt sorry enough for you to do any of these things for you. No, you were thrown out into the open field, because you were hated on the day you were born. “ ‘When I passed by and saw you kicking about in your blood, I said to you, “Live!” I made you grow like a plant in the field. You grew up and became tall and became like a beautiful jewel. Your breasts formed, and your hair grew, but you were naked and without clothes. “ ‘Later when I passed by you and looked at you, I saw that you were old enough for love. So I spread my robe over you and covered your nakedness. I also made a promise to you and entered into an agreement with you so that you became mine, says the Lord GOD.
