Ezekiel 16:53-63
53“Nevertheless, I will restore their fortunes, the fortunes of Sodom and her daughters, the fortunes of Samaria and her daughters, and 1along with them your own fortunes, 54so that you will bear your disgrace and feel 2ashamed for all that you have done when you become 3a consolation to them. 55Your sisters, Sodom with her daughters and Samaria with her daughters, 4will return to their former state, and you with your daughters will also return to your former state. 56As the name of your sister Sodom was not heard from your lips in your day of pride, 57before your 5wickedness was uncovered, 6so now you have become the 7disgrace of the daughters of 8Edom and of all who are around her, of the daughters of the Philistines--those surrounding you who despise you. 58You have 9suffered the penalty of your outrageous sin and abominations,” the Lord declares. 59For this is what the Lord God says: “I will also do with you as you have done, you who have 10despised the oath by breaking the covenant.
60“Nevertheless, I will remember My covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish an 11everlasting covenant with you. 61Then you will 12remember your ways and be ashamed when you receive your sisters, both your older and your younger; and I will give them to you as daughters, but not because of your covenant. 62So I will 13establish My covenant with you, and you shall 14know that I am the Lord, 63so that you may 15remember and be ashamed, and 16not open your mouth again because of your disgrace, when I have 1718forgiven you for all that you have done,” the Lord God declares.
