Ezekiel 16:59-61
1599 Geneva Bible
59 For thus saith the Lord God, I might even deal with thee, as thou hast done: when thou didst despise the [a]oath, in breaking the covenant.
60 Nevertheless, I will [b]remember my covenant made with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will confirm unto thee an everlasting Covenant.
61 Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou shalt receive [c]thy sisters, both thy elder and thy younger, and I will give them unto thee for daughters, but not [d]by thy covenant.
