Bible verse
But I will restore Sodom and her daughters from captivity, as well as Samaria and her daughters. And I will restore you along with them.
Ezekiel 16:53 · BSB
The verses around it, from Ezekiel 16.
49 Now this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed, and complacent; they did not help the poor and needy.
50 Thus they were haughty and committed abominations before Me. Therefore I removed them, as you have seen.
51 Furthermore, Samaria did not commit half the sins you did. You have multiplied your abominations beyond theirs, and all the abominations you have committed have made your sisters appear righteous.
52 So now you must bear your disgrace, since you have brought justification for your sisters. For they appear more righteous than you, because your sins were more vile than theirs. So you too must bear your shame and disgrace, since you have made your sisters appear righteous.
53 But I will restore Sodom and her daughters from captivity, as well as Samaria and her daughters. And I will restore you along with them.
54 So you will bear your disgrace and be ashamed of all you did to comfort them.
55 And your sisters, Sodom with her daughters and Samaria with her daughters, will return to their former state. You and your daughters will also return to your former state.
56 Did you not treat your sister Sodom as an object of scorn in the day of your pride,
57 before your wickedness was uncovered? Even so, you are now scorned by the daughters of Edom and all those around her, and by the daughters of the Philistines—all those around you who despise you.
