Ezekiel 16:51-53
Lexham English Bible
51 And Samaria did not sin according to even half of your sins,[a] and you caused your detestable things to increase more than they, and you made your sister righteous in comparison with all of your detestable things that you did.[b] 52 Also,[c] you bear your disgrace, by which you furnished justification to your sisters[d] through your sins by which you acted more abominably than they; they were more righteous than you, and also,[e] you be ashamed and bear your disgrace through your making your sister righteous.
53 And I will restore their fortune, the fortunes of Sodom and her daughters, and the fortunes of Samaria and her daughters, and even the fortunes of your captivity in the midst of them,
