Ezekiel 16:44-46
Evangelical Heritage Version
44 Hear this! Everyone will speak this proverb about you: “Like mother, like daughter.” 45 You are a true daughter of your mother, who despises her husband and her children, and you are a true sister of your sisters, who despise their husbands and their children. The mother of all of you was a Hittite and your father was an Amorite. 46 Your older sister is Samaria, who along with her daughters[a] lives north of you, and your younger sister, who lives south of you along with her daughters, is Sodom.
