# you trusted in your own beauty

# you poured out your acts of prostitution

Yahweh speaks of Jerusalem's immoral actions as if they were liquids and of committing those actions repeatedly as if it were pouring those liquids from a container. Alternate translation: "you repeatedly committed your acts of prostitution" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# so that your beauty became his
