Ezekiel 16:53

51 “Samaria did not commit ^ahalf of your sins; but you have multiplied your abominations more than they, and ^bhave justified your sisters by all the abominations which you have done.

52 You who judged your sisters, bear your own shame also, because the sins which you committed were more abominable than theirs; they are more righteous than you. Yes, be disgraced also, and bear your own shame, because you justified your sisters.

53 ^a“When I bring back their captives, the captives of Sodom and her daughters, and the captives of Samaria and her daughters, then I will also bring back ^bthe captives of your captivity among them,

54 that you may bear your own shame and be disgraced by all that you did when ^ayou comforted them.

55 When your sisters, Sodom and her daughters, return to their former state, and Samaria and her daughters return to their former state, then you and your daughters will return to your former state.

56 For your sister Sodom was not a byword in your mouth in the days of your pride,
