Ezekiel 16:44-46
New English Translation
44 “‘Observe—everyone who quotes proverbs will quote this proverb about you: “Like mother, like daughter.” 45 You are the daughter of your mother, who detested her husband and her sons, and you are the sister of your sisters, who detested their husbands and their sons. Your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite. 46 Your older sister was Samaria, who lived north[a] of you with her daughters, and your younger sister, who lived south[b] of you, was Sodom[c] with her daughters.
