ગુજરાતીયશાયા ૫૭:૯
તું તેલ લઈને રાજા પાસે ચાલી ગઈ; તેં પુષ્કળ અત્તર ચોળ્યું. તેં તારા સંદેશવાહકોને દૂર સુધી મોકલ્યા; તું શેઓલ સુધી નીચે ગઈ.
हिन्दीयशायाह ५७:९
तू तेल लिए हुए राजा के पास गई और बहुत सुगन्धित तेल अपने काम में लाई; अपने दूत तूने दूर तक भेजे और अधोलोक तक अपने को नीचा किया।

In context

7On a high and lofty mountain you have set your bed. You also went up there to offer sacrifice.

8You have set up your memorial behind the doors and the posts, for you have exposed yourself to someone besides me, and have gone up. You have enlarged your bed and made a covenant for yourself with them. You loved what you saw on their bed.

9You went to the king with oil, increased your perfumes, sent your ambassadors far off, and degraded yourself even to Sheol.

10You were wearied with the length of your ways; yet you didn’t say, ‘It is in vain.’ You found a reviving of your strength; therefore you weren’t faint.

11“Whom have you dreaded and feared, so that you lie, and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart? Haven’t I held my peace for a long time, and you don’t fear me?
