Ezekiel 16:8 in Context — Ezekiel 16
6 Y yo pasé junto á ti, y te vi sucia en tus sangres, y díjete: En tus sangres, vive; vive, díjete, en tus sangres.
7 En millares como la hierba del campo te puse, y fuiste aumentada y engrandecida, y viniste á ser adornada grandemente; los pechos te crecieron, y tu pelo brotó; mas tú estabas desnuda y descubierta.
8 Y pasé yo junto á ti, y te miré, y he aquí que tu tiempo era tiempo de amores; y extendí mi manto sobre ti, y cubrí tu desnudez; y díte juramento, y entré en concierto contigo, dice el Señor Jehová, y fuiste mía:
9 Y te lavé con agua, y lavé tus sangres de encima de ti, y ungíte con aceite;
10 Y te vestí de bordado, y te calcé de tejón, y ceñíte de lino, y te vestí de seda.
