Ezekiel 23:21-23
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
21 Thus you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when the Egyptians[a] fondled your bosom and caressed[b] your young breasts.
22 Therefore, O Oholibah, thus says the Lord God: I will arouse against you your lovers from whom you turned in disgust, and I will bring them against you from every side: 23 the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod and Shoa and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them, handsome young men, governors and commanders all of them, officers and warriors,[c] all of them riding on horses.
