Exegesis
The perfect verb hayit {הָיִיתְ | hāyīt} concludes the stative clause. This structure contrasts ingratitude for vulnerable beginnings with a chain of vivid images.
In context — Ezekiel 16:22
And concerning all your abominations and your whoredoms, you did not remember the days of your youth , when you were naked and bare, wallowing in your blood .
