²¹ See how the faithful city
    has become a prostitute!^(A)
She once was full of justice;
    righteousness^(B) used to dwell in her—
    but now murderers!^(C)

⁸ Behind your doors and your doorposts
    you have put your pagan symbols.
Forsaking me, you uncovered your bed,
    you climbed into it and opened it wide;
you made a pact with those whose beds you love,^(A)
    and you looked with lust on their naked bodies.^(B)

²⁰ “Long ago you broke off your yoke^(A)
    and tore off your bonds;^(B)
    you said, ‘I will not serve you!’^(C)
Indeed, on every high hill^(D)
    and under every spreading tree^(E)
    you lay down as a prostitute.^(F)

² “Look up to the barren heights^(A) and see.
    Is there any place where you have not been ravished?
By the roadside^(B) you sat waiting for lovers,
    sat like a nomad in the desert.
You have defiled the land^(C)
    with your prostitution^(D) and wickedness.
