Gill's Notes on the Bible

In that thou buildest thine eminent place in the head of every way,.... Or brothel house, as before; :-; which showed her to be a whore, and an imperious one:

and makest thine high place in every street;

:-;

and hast not been as an harlot: a common one, or as a harlot usually is:

in that thou scornest hire; which they do not; for it is for hire they prostitute themselves; and have their names, both in our language, and in the Latin tongue, from, thence.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Rather, didst build - didst make - wast not - scornest. In the marginal rendering, “thy daughters” must mean “thy smaller cities or villages.”
