Ezekiel 16:31

in building your vaults [vaulted temple buildings – Hebr. gav] at every street corner (literally: 'the head/beginning of all streets') and made high places (Hebr. rama) in every square (open place), and have not been like a prostitute who despises her wages. [Cultic and street prostitutes demanded payment for their services. Jerusalem's extramarital relationships gave no wages, and she gives herself away.]
