Ezekiel 16:3-10

Ezekiel 16:3-10 GNBDC

Tell Jerusalem what the Sovereign LORD is saying to her: “You were born in the land of Canaan. Your father was an Amorite, and your mother was a Hittite. When you were born, no one cut your umbilical cord or washed you or rubbed you with salt or wrapped you in cloth. No one took enough pity on you to do any of these things for you. When you were born, no one loved you. You were thrown out in an open field. “Then I passed by and saw you squirming in your own blood. You were covered with blood, but I wouldn't let you die. I made you grow like a healthy plant. You grew strong and tall and became a young woman. Your breasts were well formed, and your hair had grown, but you were naked. “As I passed by again, I saw that the time had come for you to fall in love. I covered your naked body with my coat and promised to love you. Yes, I made a marriage covenant with you, and you became mine.” This is what the Sovereign LORD says. “Then I took water and washed the blood off you. I rubbed olive oil on your skin. I dressed you in embroidered gowns and gave you shoes of the best leather, a linen headband, and a silk cloak.
