WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:01.380 Chapter 16. 00:02.380 --> 00:05.420 Again the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, 00:30.000 --> 00:34.800 Washed in water to supple thee, thou wast not salted at all, nor swaddled 00:34.800 --> 00:35.360 at all. 00:36.840 --> 00:43.500 None eye pitied thee to do any of these unto thee, to have compassion upon thee. 00:44.100 --> 00:48.740 But thou wast cast out in the open field, to the loathing of thy person, 00:49.280 --> 00:51.020 in the day that thou wast born. 00:52.420 --> 00:58.700 And when I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in thine own blood, I said unto 00:58.700 --> 01:01.500 thee, When thou wast in thy blood, live. 01:02.040 --> 01:05.720 Yea, I said unto thee, When thou wast in thy blood, live. 01:06.640 --> 01:12.140 I have caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field, and thou hast increased and 01:12.140 --> 01:12.900 waxen great. 01:13.460 --> 01:15.440 And thou art come to excellent ornaments. 01:16.220 --> 01:20.700 Thy breasts are fashioned, and thine hair is grown, whereas thou wast naked and 01:20.700 --> 01:20.980 bare. 01:21.700 --> 01:26.960 Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of 01:26.960 --> 01:27.400 love. 01:28.080 --> 01:31.620 And I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness. 01:31.980 --> 01:36.860 Yea, I swear unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God. 01:37.520 --> 01:38.900 And thou becamest mine. 01:39.840 --> 01:42.220 Then washed I thee with water. 01:42.840 --> 01:47.160 Yea, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil. 01:47.820 --> 01:52.740 I clothed thee also with broidered work, and shod thee with badger skin, 01:53.120 --> 01:57.160 and I girded thee about with fine linen, and I covered thee with silk. 01:57.640 --> 02:02.120 I decked thee also with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, 02:02.540 --> 02:08.400 and a chain on thy neck, and I put a jewel on thy forehead, and earrings in thine 02:08.400 --> 02:11.480 ears, and a beautiful crown upon thine head. 02:12.260 --> 02:17.000 Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver, and thy raiment was of fine linen 02:17.000 --> 02:18.940 and silk, and broidered work. 02:19.500 --> 02:24.160 Thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil, and thou wast exceeding 02:24.160 --> 02:27.420 beautiful, and thou didst prosper into a kingdom. 02:28.660 --> 02:33.260 And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty, for it was perfect 02:33.260 --> 02:37.380 through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God. 02:38.040 --> 02:43.220 But thou didst trust in thine own beauty, and placed the harlot because of thy 02:43.220 --> 02:49.440 renown, and pourest out thy fornications on every one that passed by, his it was. 02:50.460 --> 02:55.720 And of thy garments thou didst take, and deckest thy high places with diverse 02:55.720 --> 02:59.200 colors, and plaitest the harlot thereupon. 03:00.320 --> 03:03.700 The like things shall not come, neither shall it be so. 03:04.340 --> 03:10.100 Thou hast also taken thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given 03:10.100 --> 03:15.460 thee, and madest to thyself images of men, and didst commit whoredom with them, 03:16.180 --> 03:21.920 and tookest thy broidered garments, and coveredest them, and thou hast set 03:21.920 --> 03:24.220 mine oil and mine incense before them. 03:25.080 --> 03:29.820 My meat also, which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil, and honey, 03:30.180 --> 03:35.060 wherewith I fed thee, thou hast even set it before them for a sweet savor. 03:35.780 --> 03:38.160 And thus it was, saith the Lord God. 03:38.580 --> 03:43.500 Moreover, thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne unto me, 03:43.920 --> 03:46.900 and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured. 03:48.080 --> 03:53.120 Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter, that thou hast slain my children and 03:53.120 --> 03:56.280 delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them? 03:57.120 --> 04:02.020 And in all thine abominations and thy whoredoms thou hast not remembered the 04:02.020 --> 04:06.880 days of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare, and wast polluted in thy blood. 04:07.800 --> 04:12.420 And it came to pass, after all thy wickedness, Woe, woe unto thee, 04:12.640 --> 04:17.400 saith the Lord God, that thou hast also built unto thee an eminent place, 04:17.780 --> 04:21.120 and hast made thee an high place in every street. 04:21.740 --> 04:26.760 Thou hast built thy high place at every head of the way, and hast made thy beauty 04:26.760 --> 04:32.280 to be abhorred, and hast opened thy feet to every one that passed by, and 04:32.280 --> 04:33.520 multiplied thy whoredoms. 04:34.080 --> 04:38.420 Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians, thy neighbors, great of 04:38.420 --> 04:42.020 flesh, and hast increased thy whoredoms to provoke me to anger. 04:42.640 --> 04:46.840 Behold, therefore, I have stretched out my hand over thee, and have diminished thine 04:46.840 --> 04:51.600 ordinary food, and delivered thee unto the will of them that hate thee, the daughters 04:51.600 --> 04:54.580 of the Philistines, which are ashamed of thy lewd way. 04:55.300 --> 04:59.820 Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians, because thou wast unsatiable. 05:00.220 --> 05:04.620 Yea, thou hast played the harlot with them, yet couldst not be satisfied. 05:05.440 --> 05:09.440 Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the land of Canaan unto 05:09.440 --> 05:12.920 Chaldea, and yet thou wast not satisfied herewith. 05:13.620 --> 05:18.500 How weak is thine heart, saith the Lord God, seeing thou doest all these things, 05:18.900 --> 05:24.340 the work of an impetuous, whorish woman, in that thou buildest thine eminent place 05:24.340 --> 05:30.780 in the head of every way, and makest thine high place in every street, and hast not 05:30.780 --> 05:34.120 been as an harlot, in that thou scornest higher. 05:34.900 --> 05:39.600 But as a wife that commiteth adultery, which taketh strangers instead of her 05:39.600 --> 05:42.420 husband, they give gifts to all whores. 05:42.940 --> 05:47.780 But thou givest thy gifts to all thy lovers, and hirest them, that they may 05:47.780 --> 05:50.420 come unto thee on every side for thy whoredom. 05:51.140 --> 05:55.900 And the contrary is in thee from other women in thy whoredoms, whereas none 05:55.900 --> 05:57.440 followeth thee to commit whoredoms. 05:57.980 --> 06:02.300 And in that thou givest a reward, and no reward is given unto thee, 06:02.640 --> 06:04.300 therefore thou art contrary. 06:05.200 --> 06:07.940 Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord. 06:08.400 --> 06:13.020 Thus saith the Lord God, because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy 06:13.020 --> 06:17.460 nakedness discovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers, and with all the idols of 06:17.460 --> 06:22.160 thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children which thou didst give unto them. 06:23.040 --> 06:27.180 Behold, therefore, I will gather all thy lovers with whom thou hast taken pleasure, 06:27.540 --> 06:32.020 and all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated. 06:32.500 --> 06:37.080 I will even gather them round about against thee, and will discover thy 06:37.080 --> 06:40.320 nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness. 06:40.840 --> 06:45.320 And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged, 06:45.700 --> 06:51.220 and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy, and I will also give thee into 06:51.220 --> 06:51.820 their hand. 06:52.580 --> 06:57.180 And they shall throw down thine eminent place, and shall break down thy high 06:57.180 --> 06:57.620 places. 06:57.960 --> 07:02.320 They shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair jewels, 07:02.560 --> 07:04.300 and leave thee naked and bare. 07:05.120 --> 07:09.540 They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with 07:09.540 --> 07:12.180 stones, and thrust thee through with their swords. 07:12.780 --> 07:17.380 And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in 07:17.380 --> 07:18.480 the sight of many women. 07:18.940 --> 07:24.220 And I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou also shalt 07:24.220 --> 07:25.680 give no hire any more. 07:27.120 --> 07:32.000 So will I make my fury toward thee to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from 07:32.000 --> 07:38.580 thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry, because thou hast not 07:38.580 --> 07:43.740 remembered the days of thy youth, but hast fretted me in all these things. 07:44.440 --> 07:50.140 Behold, therefore, I also will recompense thy way upon thine head, saith the Lord 07:50.140 --> 07:54.760 God, and thou shalt not commit this lewdness above all thine abominations. 07:55.920 --> 08:01.120 Behold, every one that useth proverbs shall use this proverb against thee, 08:01.160 --> 08:04.700 saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter. 08:05.420 --> 08:09.060 Thou art thy mother's daughter, that loatheth her husband and her 08:09.060 --> 08:14.980 children, and thou art the sister of thy sisters, which loath their husbands and 08:14.980 --> 08:15.480 their children. 08:16.180 --> 08:20.220 Your mother was an Hittite, and your father an Amorite. 08:21.120 --> 08:25.620 And thine elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy 08:25.620 --> 08:30.980 left hand, and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom and 08:30.980 --> 08:31.540 her daughters. 08:32.440 --> 08:37.380 Yet hast thou not walked after their ways, nor done after their abominations, 08:37.660 --> 08:43.540 but as if that were a very little thing, thou wast corrupted more than they in all 08:43.540 --> 08:44.140 thy ways. 08:44.820 --> 08:49.060 As I live, saith the Lord God, Sodom thy sister hath not done, 08:49.620 --> 08:53.660 she nor her daughters, as thou hast done thou and thy daughters. 08:54.240 --> 08:57.660 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom. 08:58.300 --> 09:03.860 Pride, fullness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, 09:04.380 --> 09:07.380 neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. 09:08.160 --> 09:11.460 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me. 09:11.960 --> 09:15.240 Therefore I took them away as I saw good. 09:15.780 --> 09:20.320 Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins, but thou hast multiplied thine 09:20.320 --> 09:24.860 abominations more than they, and hast justified thy sisters in all thine 09:24.860 --> 09:26.840 abominations which thou hast done. 09:27.900 --> 09:33.260 Thou also, which hast judged thy sisters, bear thine own shame for thy sins that 09:33.260 --> 09:35.400 thou hast committed more abominable than they. 09:36.540 --> 09:38.120 They are more righteous than thou. 09:38.540 --> 09:44.320 Yea, be thou confounded also, and bear thy shame, in that thou hast justified thy 09:44.320 --> 09:44.680 sisters. 09:46.120 --> 09:50.560 When I shall bring again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, 09:50.560 --> 09:55.640 and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, then will I bring again the 09:55.640 --> 10:00.640 captivity of thy captives in the midst of them, that thou mayest bear thine own 10:00.640 --> 10:06.400 shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, in that thou art a 10:06.400 --> 10:07.240 comfort unto them. 10:08.080 --> 10:12.320 When thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate, 10:12.740 --> 10:17.680 and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate, then thou and thy 10:17.680 --> 10:20.380 daughters shall return to your former estate. 10:21.060 --> 10:25.740 For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride. 10:26.360 --> 10:30.660 Before thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time of thy reproach of the 10:30.660 --> 10:35.660 daughters of Syria, and all that are round about her, the daughters of the 10:35.660 --> 10:40.720 Philistines which despise thee round about, thou hast borne thy lewdness and 10:40.720 --> 10:42.920 thine abominations, saith the Lord. 10:44.140 --> 10:49.220 For thus saith the Lord God, I will even deal with thee as thou hast done, 10:49.880 --> 10:52.480 which hast despised the oath in breaking the covenant. 10:53.580 --> 10:58.140 Nevertheless, I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, 10:58.560 --> 11:01.880 and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant. 11:03.120 --> 11:08.120 Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed when thou shalt receive thy 11:08.120 --> 11:12.440 sisters, thine elder and thy younger, and I will give them unto thee for 11:12.440 --> 11:15.240 daughters, but not by thy covenant. 11:16.020 --> 11:21.260 And I will establish my covenant with thee, and thou shalt know that I am the 11:21.260 --> 11:26.260 Lord, that thou mayest remember and be confounded, and never open thy mouth any 11:26.260 --> 11:30.780 more because of thy shame, when I am pacified toward thee for all that thou 11:30.780 --> 11:32.740 hast done, saith the Lord God.
