now in the street, now in the squares, at every corner she lurks.)

Sometimes she’s in the streets. Sometimes she’s at other places. At every corner she waits.

She is often in the streets and markets, soliciting at every corner.

you built yourself a chamber and put up a pavilion in every public square.At the head of every street you erected your pavilion and you disgraced your beauty when you spread your legs to every passerby and multiplied your promiscuity.

“ Indeed, long ago you threw off my authority and refused to be subject to me. You said,‘ I will not serve you.’ Instead, you gave yourself to other gods on every high hill and under every green tree, like a prostitute sprawls out before her lovers.

When you built your chamber at the head of every street and put up your pavilion in every public square, you were not like a prostitute, because you scoffed at payment.

“ My, how good you have become at chasing after your lovers! Why, you could even teach prostitutes a thing or two!
