Ezekiel 16:50-52
Legacy Standard Bible
50 Then they were haughty and committed (A)abominations before Me. So I (B)removed them [a]when I saw it. 51 Furthermore, Samaria did not commit half of your sins, for you have multiplied your abominations more than they. Thus you have made your sisters appear (C)righteous by all your abominations which you have done. 52 Also bear your dishonor in that you have [b]made judgment favorable for your sisters. Because of your sins in which you acted (D)more abominably than they, they are more in the right than you. Yes, be also ashamed and bear your dishonor, in that you made your sisters appear righteous.

Ezekiel 16:50-52
New International Version
50 They were haughty(A) and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.(B) 51 Samaria did not commit half the sins you did. You have done more detestable things than they, and have made your sisters seem righteous by all these things you have done.(C) 52 Bear your disgrace, for you have furnished some justification for your sisters. Because your sins were more vile than theirs, they appear more righteous(D) than you. So then, be ashamed and bear(E) your disgrace, for you have made your sisters appear righteous.
