Ezekiel 23:40 in Context — Ezekiel 23

38 Ainda isto me fizeram: contaminaram meu santuário naquele mesmo dia, e profanaram meus sábados;

39 Pois havendo sacrificado seus filhos a seus ídolos, vieram ao meu santuário no mesmo dia para profaná-lo; e eis que assim fizeram em meio da minha casa.

40 E além disto, mandaram avisar a homens que viriam de longe, aos quais havia sido enviado mensageiro. E eis que vieram; e por causa deles te lavaste, pintaste os teus olhos, e te enfeitaste de joias;

41 E te sentaste sobre uma cama luxuosa; diante da qual foi preparada uma mesa, e puseste sobre ela meu perfume e meu óleo.

42 E [ouviu-se] nela voz de multidão alegre; e junto dos homens ordinários, foram trazidos os beberrões do deserto; e puseram braceletes em suas mãos, e belas coroas sobre suas cabeças.
