Ezekiel:16:46-56

*
And thine elder sister is Samaria ,
she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand :
and thy younger sister ,
that dwelleth at thy right hand ,
is Sodom and her daughters .
*
Yet hast thou not walked after their ways ,
nor done after their abominations :
but ,
as if that were a very little thing ,
thou wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways .
*
As I live ,
saith the Lord GOD ,
Sodom thy sister hath not done ,
she nor her daughters ,
as thou hast done ,
thou and thy daughters .
*
Behold ,
this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom ,
pride ,
fulness of bread ,
and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters ,
neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy .
*
And they were haughty ,
and committed abomination before me :
therefore I took them away as I saw good .
*
Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins ;
but thou hast multiplied thine abominations more than they ,
and hast justified thy sisters in all thine abominations which thou hast done .
*
Thou also ,
which hast judged thy sisters ,
bear thine own shame for thy sins that thou hast committed more abominable than they :
they are more righteous than thou :
yea ,
be thou confounded also ,
and bear thy shame ,
in that thou hast justified thy sisters .
*
When I 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 :
*
That thou mayest bear thine own shame ,
and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done ,
in that thou art a comfort unto them .
*
When thy sisters ,
Sodom and her daughters ,
shall return to their former estate ,
and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate ,
then thou and thy daughters shall return to your former estate .
*
For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride ,
