Ezekiel 16:42-44

Young's Literal Translation

⁴² And I have caused My fury against thee to rest, And My jealousy hath turned aside from thee, And I have been quiet, and I am not angry any more.

⁴³ Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, And dost give trouble to Me in all these, Lo, even I also thy way at first gave up, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And I did not this thought for all thine abominations.

⁴⁴ Lo, every one using a simile, Doth use a simile concerning thee, saying: As the mother -- her daughter!
