Context of Ezekiel 23:33

31You’ve acted the same way as your sister. That is why I will put her cup in your hand. 32This is what the Almighty Lord says: You will drink from your sister’s cup, a cup that is deep and wide. You will be scorned and mocked, because this cup holds so much. The cup of your sister Samaria will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow. 34You will drink from it and drain it. You will break it into pieces and tear your breasts off your body. I have spoken, declares the Almighty Lord. 35“This is what the Almighty Lord says: You have forgotten me and turned your back on me. So you will be punished for your sinning and prostitution.”
