A todas las rameras les dan regalos, pero tú dabas regalos a todos tus amantes y los sobornabas para que vinieran a ti de todas partes para tus prostituciones.
A todas las rameras les dan regalos; mas t diste regalos a todos tus amantes; y les diste presentes, para que entrasen a ti de todas partes por tus prostituciones.
A todas las rameras dan dones; mas t diste tus dones a todos tus enamorados; y les diste presentes, para que entrasen a ti de todas partes por tus fornicaciones.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
They give gifts to all whores,.... Gifts are usually given to whores, by those who commit whoredom with them; it is for the sake of these they prostitute their bodies, nor will they do this without gain; see Genesis 38:16;
but thou givest thy gifts to all thy lovers; the Jews gave the Egyptians and Assyrians money, to gain their friendship, and procure alliances with them; see 2 Kings 16:8; and were at great expenses with their idols, and in support of their idolatrous worship:
and hirest them, that they may come unto thee on every side for thy whoredom; they courted the nations all around them for their favour and friendship, and bribed them into it, as the word n signifies.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The picture is heightened by the contrast between one who as a prostitute receives hire for her shame, and one who as a wife is so utterly abandoned as to bestow her husband’s goods to purchase her own dishonor. Compare 2 Kings 16:8.
