Son of man, make clear to Jerusalem her disgusting ways,

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

As for your birth, on the day of your birth your cord was not cut and you were not washed in water to make you clean; you were not salted or folded in linen bands.

אֹתָךְ֙ (אֹתָ) 'o.to “<obj.>”

No eye had pity on you to do any of these things to you or to be kind to you; but you were put out into the open country, because your life was hated at the time of your birth.

אֹתָֽךְ׃ (אֹתָֽ) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

But you put your faith in the fact that you were beautiful, acting like a loose woman because you were widely talked of, and offering your cheap love to everyone who went by, whoever it might be.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And you took your robes of needlework for their clothing, and put my oil and my perfume before them.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And you took your sons and your daughters whom I had by you, offering even these to them to be their food. Was your loose behaviour so small a thing,

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

That you put my children to death and gave them up to go through the fire to them?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אוֹתָ֖ם (אוֹתָ֖) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

And in all your disgusting and false behaviour you had no memory of your early days, when you were uncovered and without clothing, stretched out in your blood.

וְאֵ֤ת (אֵ֤ת) 'Et “with”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

You put up your high places at the top of every street, and made the grace of your form a disgusting thing, opening your feet to everyone who went by, increasing your loose ways.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And you went with the Egyptians, your neighbours, great of flesh; increasing your loose ways, moving me to wrath.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And you went on in your loose ways, even as far as the land of Chaldaea, and still you had not enough.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

How feeble is your heart, says the Lord, seeing that you do all these things, the work of a loose and overruling woman;

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

The untrue wife who takes strange lovers in place of her husband!

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

They give payment to all loose women: but you give rewards to your lovers, offering them payment so that they may come to you on every side for your cheap love.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אוֹתָ֗ם (אוֹתָ֗) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

For this cause I will get together all your lovers with whom you have taken your pleasure, and all those to whom you have given your love, with all those who were hated by you; I will even make them come together against you on every side, and I will hav

And they will get together a meeting against you, stoning you with stones and wounding you with their swords.

אוֹתָ֖ךְ (אוֹתָ֖) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

Because you have not kept in mind the days when you were young, but have been troubling me with all these things; for this reason I will make the punishment of your ways come on your head, says the Lord, because you have done this evil thing in addition

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

They were full of pride and did what was disgusting to me: and so I took them away as you have seen.

And Samaria has not done half your sins; but you have made the number of your disgusting acts greater than theirs, making your sisters seem more upright than you by all the disgusting things which you have done.

And I will let their fate be changed, the fate of Sodom and her daughters, and the fate of Samaria and her daughters, and your fate with theirs.

Before your shame was uncovered? Now you have become like her a word of shame to the daughters of Edom and all who are round about you, the daughters of the Philistines who put shame on you round about.
