38:16 He turned aside to her along the road and said, “Come on! I want to have sex with you.” ¹  (He did not realize ²  it was his daughter-in-law.) She asked, “What will you give me in exchange for having sex with you?” ³ 

Yehezkiel 16:33

16:33 All prostitutes receive payment, ⁴  but instead you give gifts to every one of your lovers. You bribe them to come to you from all around for your sexual favors!

Hosea 9:1

Fertility Cult Festivals Have Intoxicated Israel

9:1 O Israel, do not rejoice jubilantly ⁵  like the nations,

for you are unfaithful ⁶  to your God.

You love to receive a prostitute's wages ⁷ 

on all the floors where you thresh your grain.

² tn Heb “for he did not know that.”

³ tn Heb “when you come to me.” This expression is a euphemism for sexual intercourse.

⁴ tn The Hebrew word occurs only here in the OT.

⁵ tn Heb “do not rejoice unto jubilation”; KJV “Rejoice not…for joy”; NASB “Do not rejoice…with exultation.”

⁶ tn Heb “you have committed adultery”; NRSV “you have played the whore.”

⁷ tn Heb “you love the wages of the prostitute” (NIV similar); NAB “loving a harlot’s hire.”
