New King James Version
More Wicked than Samaria and Sodom
44 “Indeed everyone who quotes proverbs will use this proverb against you: ‘Like mother, like daughter!’ 45 You are your mother’s daughter, [a]loathing husband and children; and you are the (A)sister of your sisters, who loathed their husbands and children; (B)your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite.
46 “Your elder sister is Samaria, who dwells with her daughters to the north of you; and (C)your younger sister, who dwells to the south of you, is Sodom and her daughters.
