“Says Yahweh God.
‘How sick is your heart?
You did all these things.
You did the deeds
Of a brazen whore.
You built a platform
At the head
Of every street.
You made your lofty place
In every square.
Yet you were not
Like a whore,
Because you scorned payment.’”
Yahweh God spoke out again. How sick was the heart of Jerusalem? She had acted like a brazen whore, a prostitute. As mentioned earlier, she built a platform at every street corner and a lofty place in the town square. The only difference between her and a common whore, was that she did not accept any payment for her prostitution activities.
