- "And she putª° her widow'sª garmentsª off²° from¹¹ her, and covered¹ her²° with a vail,ª and wrapped herself,ª° and sat¹ in²° an open²¹ place,ª which¹ [is] by¹ the wayª to Timnath;ª for¹ she sawª° that¹ Shelahª was grown,ª° and she¹ was not¹ givenª° unto him to wife.ª ... When Judahª saw¹ her,²° he thoughtª° her [to be] an harlot;ª° because¹ she had coveredª° her face.ª" {Gen 38:14-15} + "And it came to pass,¹ when Joramª sawª°¹ Jehu,ª that he said,ª° [Is it] peace,ª Jehu?ª And he answered,ª° What¹ peace,ª so long asª the whoredomsª of thy motherª Jezebelª and her witchcraftsª [are so] many?ª" {2Kg 9:22} + "And when Jehuª was comeª° to Jezreel,ª Jezebelª heardª° [of it]; and she paintedªª° her face,ª and tiredª°¹ her head,ª and looked outª° at¹ a window.ª" {2Kg 9:30} + "Moreover the LORDª saith,ª° Becauseª¹ the daughtersª of Zionª are haughty,ª° and walk²°¹ with stretched forthª° necksª and wantonª° eyes,ª walkingª° and mincingª° [as] they go,²°¹ and making a tinklingª° with their feet:ª ... And it shall come to pass,¹ [that] instead¹ of sweet smellª there shall be¹ stink;ª and instead¹ of a girdleª a rent;ª and instead¹ of well setª hairª baldness;ª and instead¹ of a stomacherª a girdingª of sackcloth;ª [and] burningª instead¹ of beauty.ª" {Isa 3:16-24} + "Takeª° an harp,ª go aboutª° the city,ª thou harlotª° that hast been forgotten;ª° make sweetª° melody,ª° sing manyª° songs,ª that¹ thou mayest be remembered.ª°" {Isa 23:16} + "And [when] thou¹ [art] spoiled,ª° what¹ wilt thou do?ª° Though¹ thou clothestª° thyself with crimson,ª though¹ thou deckestª° thee with ornamentsª of gold,ª though¹ thou rentestª° thy faceª with painting,ª in vainª shalt thou make thyself fair;ª° [thy] loversª° will despiseª° thee, they will seekª° thy life.ª" {Jer 4:30} + "In like mannerª also,ª that womenª adornª° themselvesª inª modestª apparel,ª withª shamefacednessª andª sobriety;ª notª withª broided hair,ª orª gold,ª orª pearls,ª orª costlyª array;ª" {1Tm 2:9} + "Soª he carried²° me² awayª°¹ inª the spiritª intoª the wilderness:ª andª I sawª° a womanª sitª° uponª a scarlet colouredª beast,ª full¹ of²° namesª of blasphemy,ª havingª° sevenª headsª andª tenª horns.ª ...
