In context

3And they played in Egypt, prostituting themselves from their youth. Their breasts were fondled there, and their virgin bosoms caressed.

4The older was named Oholah, and her sister was named Oholibah. They became Mine and gave birth to sons and daughters. As for their identities, Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem.

5Oholah prostituted herself while she was still Mine. She lusted after her lovers, the Assyrians—warriors

6Clothed in blue, governors and commanders, all desirable young men, horsemen mounted on steeds.

7She offered sexual favors to all the elite of Assyria. She defiled herself with all the idols of those for whom she lusted.
