Ezekiel 16:31 in Context — Ezekiel 16
29 Tu as multiplié tes prostitutions avec le pays de Canaan et jusqu’en Chaldée, et avec cela tu n’as pas encore été rassasiée.
30 Quelle faiblesse de cœur tu as eue, dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel, en faisant toutes ces choses, qui sont l’œuvre d’une maîtresse prostituée!
31 Lorsque tu bâtissais tes maisons de prostitution à l’entrée de chaque chemin, lorsque tu faisais tes hauts lieux dans toutes les places, tu n’as pas même été comme la prostituée qui réclame un salaire;
32 tu as été la femme adultère, qui reçoit des étrangers au lieu de son mari.
33 A toutes les prostituées on paie un salaire; mais toi, tu as fait des dons à tous tes amants, tu les as gagnés par des présents, afin de les attirer à toi de toutes parts dans tes prostitutions.
