16:1-63 Jerusalem is exposed as a wanton prostitute. Even in the relatively mild form of the English translation, ch 16 is hard to read, and it was at least as shocking in the ancient context. Ezekiel was graphically communicating the full ugliness and offensiveness of Judah’s sin. He refused to be polite when discussing his people’s depravity. In fact, his refusal to tone down the offensiveness of Jerusalem’s sin is precisely the point of the passage. The offensive nature of the portrayal was critical to its effectiveness because Ezekiel’s hearers could understand that God’s awful judgment upon them was justified only if they first understood the magnitude of their sin in his sight. A less graphic presentation would not have adequately communicated this message.

(Occurrence 0) How sick is your heart … that you would do all these things, deeds of a shameless prostitute?
(Some words not found in UHB: what sick heart,your declares my=master GOD in/on/at/with,did,you DOM all/each/any/every these actions woman/wife prostitute brazen )
Yahweh asks the rhetorical question in order to rebuke Jerusalem. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “Your heart must be very sick … that you would do all these things, deeds of a shameless prostitute!”

(Occurrence 0) How sick is your heart
(Some words not found in UHB: what sick heart,your declares my=master GOD in/on/at/with,did,you DOM all/each/any/every these actions woman/wife prostitute brazen )
Here the word “heart” represents the will and emotions. Yahweh speaks of her inability to control her desires as if her heart were sick. Alternate translation: “How weak-willed are you” (See also: figs-metaphor)
