Ezekiel 16:53-63


53 “Nevertheless, I will 1return their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and 2along with them 3your own captivity,
54 in order that you may bear your dishonor and feel adishonor for all that you have done when you become ba comfort to them. 55 Your sisters, Sodom with her daughters and Samaria with her daughters, 1will return to their former state, and you with your daughters will also return to your former state. 56 As the name of your sister Sodom was not heard in your mouth in your day of lofty pride, 57 before your awickedness was uncovered, 1so now you have become the breproach of the daughters of 2Edom and of all who are around her, of the daughters of the Philistines—those all around you who despise you. 58 You have aborne the penalty of your lewdness and abominations,” declares Yahweh. 59 For thus says Lord Yahweh, “I will also do with you as you have done, you who have adespised the oath by breaking the covenant.

Yahweh’s Everlasting Covenant

60 “Nevertheless, I Myself will remember My covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish an aeverlasting covenant with you.
61 Then you will aremember your ways and feel dishonor when you receive your sisters, both your older and your younger; and I will give them to you as daughters, but not because of your covenant. 62 Thus I will aestablish My covenant with you, and you shall bknow that I am Yahweh, 63 so that you may aremember and be ashamed and bnever open your mouth anymore because of your dishonor, when I have catoned for you for all that you have done,” declares Lord Yahweh.
