Ezekiel 16:55-63 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

55. So you and your sisters will be rebuilt. Sodom and the towns around her, Samaria and the towns around her, and you and the towns around you will all be rebuilt.

56. β€œIn the past, you were proud and made fun of your sister Sodom. But you will not do that again.

57. You did that before you were punished, before your neighbors started making fun of you. The daughters of Edom and Philistia are making fun of you now.

58. Now you must suffer for the terrible things you did.” This is what the Lord said.

59. This is what the Lord GOD said: β€œI will treat you like you treated me! You broke your marriage promise. You did not respect our agreement.

60. But I will remember the agreement we made when you were young. I made an agreement with you that will continue forever!

61. I will bring your sisters to you, and I will make them your daughters. That was not in our agreement, but I will do that for you. Then you will remember the terrible things you did, and you will be ashamed.

62. So I will make my agreement with you, and you will know that I am the Lord.

63. You will remember me, and you will be so ashamed of the evil things you did that you will not be able to say anything. But I will make you pure, and you will never be ashamed again!” This is what the Lord GOD said.
