Ezekiel 16:49-51
Lexham English Bible
49 Look! This was the iniquity of Sodom, your sister: Pride, abundance of food, and prosperous ease[a] was to her and to her daughters, and she did not sustain the needy and the poor.[b] 50 And they were proud, and they did a detestable thing before me,[c] and I removed them because[d] I saw it. 51 And Samaria did not sin according to even half of your sins,[e] and you caused your detestable things to increase more than they, and you made your sister righteous in comparison with all of your detestable things that you did.[f]

49 “‘Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom:(A) She and her daughters were arrogant,(B) overfed and unconcerned;(C) they did not help the poor and needy.(D) 50 They were haughty(E) and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.(F) 51 Samaria did not commit half the sins you did.
