Ezekiel 16:10

God's love

8 Then I passed by and saw you, and you were indeed old enough for love. So I spread My cloak over you and covered your nakedness. I pledged Myself to you, entered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine, declares the Lord GOD.

9 Then I bathed you with water, rinsed off your blood, and anointed you with oil.

I clothed you in embroidered cloth and gave you sandals of fine leather. I wrapped you in fine linen and covered you with silk.

11 I adorned you with jewelry, and I put bracelets on your wrists and a chain around your neck.

12 I put a ring in your nose, earrings on your ears, and a beautiful crown upon your head.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
