Ezekiel 16:49-52

49Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had 1arrogance, 2plenty of food, and 3carefree ease, but she did not 4help the 5poor and needy. 50So they were haughty and committed 6abominations before Me. Therefore I 7removed them 8when I saw it. 51Furthermore, Samaria did not commit half of your sins, for you have multiplied your abominations more than they. So you have made your sisters appear 9innocent by all your abominations which you have committed. 52Also, bear your disgrace in that you have 10made judgment favorable for your sisters. Because of your sins in which you acted 11more abominably than they, they are more in the right than you. Yes, be also ashamed and bear your disgrace, in that you made your sisters appear innocent.
