Ezekiel 16:50-52

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁵⁰ They were haughty, and they committed abominations in my presence, and so I removed them when I saw it. ⁵¹ Samaria did not sin half as much as you did. You multiplied your abominations more than they did. You made your sisters appear righteous by all your abominations which you committed. ⁵² So you must bear your disgrace, because by your sins you appeared to plead your sisters’ case for them. Because of your sins—you acted more repulsively than they did—they appear more righteous than you. So you must be ashamed and bear your disgrace, because you made your sisters appear righteous.
