In context

24that thou didst build thyself a house of fornication, and didst make thyself a public place in every street;

25and on the head of every way thou didst set up thy fornications, and didst defile thy beauty, and didst open thy feet to every passerby, and didst multiply thy fornication.

— Ezekiel 16:26 —

27And if I stretch out my hand against thee, then will I abolish thy statutes, and deliver thee up to the wills of them that hate thee, even to the daughters of the Philistines that turned thee aside from the way wherein thou sinnedst.

28And thou didst go a-whoring to the daughters of Assyria, and not even thus wast thou satisfied; yea, thou didst go a-whoring, and wast not satisfied.
