Ezechiel 16:6-12 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

6. And passing by thee, I saw that thou wast trodden under foot in thy own blood, and I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood: Live: I have said to thee: Live in thy blood.

7. I caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field: and thou didst increase and grow great, and advancedst, and camest to woman's ornament: thy breasts were fashioned, and thy hair grew: and thou wast naked, and full of confusion.

8. And I passed by thee, and saw thee: and behold thy time was the time of lovers: and I spread my garment over thee, and covered thy ignominy. And I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: and thou becamest mine.

9. And I washed thee with water, and cleansed away thy blood from thee: and I anointed thee with oil.

10. And I clothed thee with embroidery, and shed thee with violet coloured shoes: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and clothed thee with fine garments.

11. I decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck.

12. And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.
