Ezekiel 16:24 Context
22And in all thine abominations and thy whooredomes, thou hast not remembred the dayes of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare, and wast polluted in thy blood. 23And it came to passe after all thy wickednesse (woe, woe vnto thee, saith the Lord God.) 24That thou hast also built vnto thee an eminent place, and hast made thee an high place in euery streete. 25Thou hast built thy high place at euery head of the way, and hast made thy beauty to be abhorred, and hast opened thy feete to euery one that passed by, and multiplied thy whooredomes. 26Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours great of flesh, & hast increased thy whooredomes, to prouoke me to anger.
