Ezekiel 16:46-49

46Now your 1older sister is Samaria, who lives 2north of you with her 3daughters; and your younger sister, who lives 4south of you, is 5Sodom with her 6daughters.

47Yet you have not merely walked in their ways or done according to their abominations; but, as if that were 7too little, you acted 8more corruptly in all your conduct than they.

48As I live,” declares the Lord God, “Sodom, your sister and her daughters have 9not done as you and your daughters have done.

49Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had 10arrogance, 11abundant food and 12careless ease, but she did not 13help the 14poor and needy.
