Ezekiel 16:46-56

46And thy elderH1419 sisterH269 is SamariaH8111, she and her daughtersH1323 that dwellH3427 at thy left handH8040: and thy youngerH6996 sisterH269, that dwellethH3427 at thy right handH3225, is SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323.1 47Yet hast thou not walkedH1980 after their waysH1870, nor doneH6213 after their abominationsH8441: but, as if that were a veryH6985 littleH4592H6962 thing, thou wast corruptedH7843 more than theyH2004 in all thy waysH1870.2 48As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, SodomH5467 thy sisterH269 hath not doneH6213, she nor her daughtersH1323, as thou hast doneH6213, thou and thy daughtersH1323. 49Behold, this was the iniquityH5771 of thy sisterH269 SodomH5467, prideH1347, fulnessH7653 of breadH3899, and abundanceH7962 of idlenessH8252 was in her and in her daughtersH1323, neither did she strengthenH2388 the handH3027 of the poorH6041 and needyH34. 50And they were haughtyH1361, and committedH6213 abominationH8441 beforeH6440 me: therefore I took them awayH5493 as I sawH7200 good . 51Neither hath SamariaH8111 committedH2398 halfH2677 of thy sinsH2403; but thou hast multipliedH7235 thy abominationsH8441 more than theyH2007, and hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269 in all thy abominationsH8441 which thou hast doneH6213. 52Thou also, who hast judgedH6419 thy sistersH269, bearH5375 thy own shameH3639 for thy sinsH2403 that thou hast committed more abominableH8581 than theyH2004: they are more righteousH6663 than thou: yea, be thou confoundedH954 also, and bearH5375 thy shameH3639, in that thou hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269. 53When I shall bring againH7725 their captivityH7622, the captivityH7622 of SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323, and the captivityH7622 of SamariaH8111 and her daughtersH1323, then will I bring again the captivityH7622 of thy captivesH7622 in the midstH8432 of them: 54That thou mayest bearH5375 thy own shameH3639, and mayest be confoundedH3637 in all that thou hast doneH6213, in that thou art a comfortH5162 to them. 55When thy sistersH269, SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323, shall returnH7725 to their former stateH6927, and SamariaH8111 and her daughtersH1323 shall returnH7725 to their former stateH6927, then thou and thy daughtersH1323 shall returnH7725 to your former stateH6927. 56For thy sisterH269 SodomH5467 was not mentionedH8052 by thy mouthH6310 in the dayH3117 of thy prideH1347,34
