Ezekiel 16:48–63

48 aAs I live, saith the Lord God, bSodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters. 49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, cpride, dfulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. 50 And cthey were haughty, and ecommitted abomination before me: therefore fI took them away gas I saw good. 51 Neither hath hSamaria committed half of thy sins; but thou hast multiplied thine abominations more than they, and ihast justified thy sisters in all thine abominations which thou hast done. 52 jThou also, which hast kjudged thy sisters, lbear thine own shame for thy sins hthat thou hast committed more abominable than they: they are more righteous than thou: yea, be thou confounded also, and bear thy shame, iin that thou hast justified thy sisters.

53 When mI shall bring again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, then will I bring again the captivity of thy captives in the midst of them: 54 That thou mayest lbear thine own shame, and nmayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, in that nnthou art a comfort unto them. 55 When thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to nnntheir former estate, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate, then thou and thy daughters shall return to your former estate. 56 For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride, 57 Before thy wickedness was discovered, pas at the time of thy reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all that are round about her, qthe daughters of the Philistines, which ||despise thee round about. 58 rThou hast borne thy lewdness and thine abominations, saith the Lord. 59 For thus saith the Lord God; I will even deal with thee as thou hast done, which hast sdespised tthe oath sin breaking tthe covenant. 60 Nevertheless uI will remember my covenant with thee vin the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee wan everlasting covenant. 61 Then xthou shalt remember thy ways, and nbe ashamed, when thou shalt receive ythy sisters, ythine elder and thy younger: and I will give them unto thee zfor daughters, but anot by thy covenant. 62 And bI will establish my covenant with thee; cand thou shalt know that I am the Lord: 63 dThat thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and enever fopen thy mouth any more dbecause of thy shame, when I am gpacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord God.
