Ezekiel 16:43-52
43BecauseH5921 thou hast notH3808 rememberedH2142 the daysH3117 of thy youthH5271, but hast fretted meH5414 in allH3605 theseH428 things; therefore beholdH3808, I also will bringH5414 thy wayH1870 uponH5921 thine headH7218, saith the LordH136 GODH136: and thou shalt notH3808 commitH5414 this lewdnessH2154 aboveH5921 allH3605 thine abominationsH8441.
44BeholdH2009, everyH3605 one that useth proverbs shall use this proverb againstH5921 thee, sayingH559, As is the motherH517, soH5921 is herH3605 daughterH1323.
45Thou art thy mother’sH517 daughterH1323, that loatheth herH1602 husbandH376 and herH1602 childrenH1121; and thou art the sisterH269 of thy sistersH269, whichH834 loathedH1602 their husbandsH376 and their childrenH1121: your motherH517 was an HittiteH2850, and your fatherH1 an AmoriteH567.
46And thine elderH1419 sisterH269 is SamariaH8111, that dwelleth at thy leftH8040 handH3225, sheH1931 and herH5921 daughtersH1323: and thy youngerH6996 sisterH269, that dwelleth at thy rightH3225 handH3225, is SodomH5467 and herH5921 daughtersH1323.
47Yet hast thou notH3808 walkedH1980 in their waysH1870, norH3808 doneH6213 afterH1980 their abominationsH8441; but, as if that were a veryH1980 littleH4592 thingH8441, thou wast moreH3808 corruptH7843 thanH3808 they in allH3605 thy waysH1870.
48As I liveH2416, saith the LordH136 GODH136, SodomH5467 thy sisterH269 hath notH518 doneH6213, sheH1931 norH518 herH518 daughtersH1323, as thou hast doneH6213, thou and thy daughtersH1323.
49BeholdH2009, this was the iniquityH5771 of thy sisterH269 SodomH5467; prideH1347, fulness of breadH3899, and prosperous easeH7962 was in herH1961 and in herH1961 daughtersH1323; neitherH3808 didH3808 sheH3808 strengthenH2388 the handH3027 of the poorH6041 and needyH34.
50And they were haughty, and committedH6213 abominationH8441 beforeH6440 meH6440: therefore I tookH5493 them awayH5493 as I sawH7200 good.
51NeitherH3808 hath SamariaH8111 committedH2398 halfH2677 of thy sinsH2398; but thou hast multipliedH7235 thine abominationsH8441 moreH3808 thanH3808 they, and hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269 by allH3605 thine abominationsH8441 whichH834 thou hast doneH6213.
52Thou also, bearH5375 thine own shameH954, in that thou hast given judgmentH834 for thy sistersH269; throughH4480 thy sinsH2403 that thou hast committedH8581 moreH4480 abominableH8581 thanH4480 they, they are moreH4480 righteousH6663 thanH4480 thou: yea, be thou also confoundedH954, and bearH5375 thy shameH954, in that thou hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269.
