Ezekiel 16:46-55

Thomson(i) 46 your eldest sister is Samaria; she and her daughters who live on thy left; and your youngest sister who liveth on thy right is Sodom with her daughters. 47 But thou hast not walked even in their ways, nor done according to their transgressions in a small degree. Thou hast surpassed them in all thy ways. 48 As I live, saith the Lord, Sodom herself and her daughters did not do as thou and thy daughters have done. 49 But this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom; Pride. Through fulness of bread and prosperity she and her daughters grew wanton. There was this also in her and her daughters that they did not assist the distressed and the needy; 50 but were haughty and committed iniquities in my sight; therefore I destroyed them. 51 In my view Samaria also did not commit half thy crimes. Thou indeed hast multiplied thine iniquities more than they, and justified thy sisters by all thine iniquities which thou hast committed. 52 Thou therefore shalt bear thy punishment. Inasmuch as thou hast corrupted thy sisters by thy sins, which thou hast committed in a more aggravated degree than they, and made them righteous in comparison of thee; be thou therefore confounded and bear thy dishonour, for having justified thy sisters. 53 When I turn back their apostacies; the apostacy of Sodom and her daughters, and turn back the apostacy of Samaria and her daughters, I will turn 54 back also thine apostacy in the midst of them; that thou mayst bear thy punishment and be dishonoured for all that thou hast 55 done to provoke me to anger. And when thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall be restored to their former state then thou and thy daughters shall be restored to your former state.
