44 “Behold, everyone (D)who uses proverbs will use this proverb about you: ‘Like mother, like daughter.’ 45 You are the daughter of your mother, who loathed her husband and her children; and you are the sister of (E)your sisters, who loathed their husbands and their children. (F)Your mother was a Hittite and (G)your father an Amorite.
