This is the very word of the Lord God. Did you not commit all these obscenities, as well as your other abominations? Dealers in proverbs will say of you, "like mother, like daught." You are a true daughter of a mother who loathed her husband and children. You are a true sister of your sister who loathed their husband and children. You are all daughters of a Hittite mother and an Amorite father. Your elder sister was Samaria, who lived whith her daughters to the north of you. Your younger sister, who lived with her daughter to the south of you, was Sodom. Did you not behave as they did and commit the same abominations? As I live,says the Lord.... This was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters had prid of wealth and food in plenty, comfort and ease, and yet she never helped the poor and wretched. The grew haught and wretched and did deeds abominable in my sight and I made a way with them as you have seen.
