The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Tanach: Ezekiel 16: 29 Thou hast moreover multiplied thy harlotry with the land of traffic, even with Chaldea; and yet thou didst not have enough herewith.
Ezekiel 16: 30 How weak is thy heart, saith the Lord GOD, seeing thou doest all these things, the work of a wanton harlot;
Ezekiel 16: 31 in that thou buildest thine eminent place in the head of every way, and makest thy lofty place in every street; and hast not been as a harlot that enhanceth her hire.
Ezekiel 16: 32 Thou wife that committest adultery, that takest strangers instead of thy husband--
Ezekiel 16: 33 to all harlots gifts are given; but thou hast given thy gifts to all thy lovers, and hast bribed them to come unto thee from every side in thy harlotries.
Ezekiel 16: 34 And the contrary is in thee from other women, in that thou didst solicit to harlotry, and wast not solicited; and in that thou givest hire, and no hire is given unto thee, thus thou art contrary.
Ezekiel 16: 35 Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the LORD!
Ezekiel 16: 36 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness uncovered through thy harlotries with thy lovers; and because of all the idols of thy abominations, and for the blood of thy children, that thou didst give unto them;
Ezekiel 16: 37 therefore behold, I will gather all thy lovers, unto whom thou hast been pleasant, and all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated; I will even gather them again
