Ezekiel 16:46-56

46“Your older sister was Samaria, who lived with her daughters in the north. Your younger sister was Sodom, who lived with her daughters in the south.

47But you have not merely sinned as they did. You quickly surpassed them in corruption.

48As surely as I live, says the Sovereign Lord, Sodom and her daughters were never as wicked as you and your daughters.

49Sodom’s sins were pride, gluttony, and laziness, while the poor and needy suffered outside her door.

50She was proud and committed detestable sins, so I wiped her out, as you have seen.

51“Even Samaria did not commit half your sins. You have done far more detestable things than your sisters ever did. They seem righteous compared to you.

52Shame on you! Your sins are so terrible that you make your sisters seem righteous, even virtuous.

53“But someday I will restore the fortunes of Sodom and Samaria, and I will restore you, too.

54Then you will be truly ashamed of everything you have done, for your sins make them feel good in comparison.

55Yes, your sisters, Sodom and Samaria, and all their people will be restored, and at that time you also will be restored.

56In your proud days you held Sodom in contempt.
