Exegesis
The verbs hishsafekh {הִשָּׁפֵךְ | hiššāpēḵ} ‘was poured out’ and vattiggaleh {וַתִּגָּלֶה | wattigāle} ‘was uncovered’ are Niphal forms, conveying passive or reflexive aspects that emphasize involuntary exposure.
In context — Ezekiel 16:36
Thus says the Lord GOD ; because your filthiness was poured out and your nakedness was uncovered according to your sexual promiscuity with your lovers, with all the idols of your abominations, and by the blood of your children whom you gave to them.
