Read in context

Ezekiel 16:54–58 · Berean Standard Bible

54 So you will bear your disgrace and be ashamed of all you did to comfort them.

55 And your sisters, Sodom with her daughters and Samaria with her daughters, will return to their former state. You and your daughters will also return to your former state.

56 Did you not treat your sister Sodom as an object of scorn in the day of your pride,

57 before your wickedness was uncovered? Even so, you are now scorned by the daughters of Edom and all those around her, and by the daughters of the Philistines—all those around you who despise you.

58 You will bear the consequences of your lewdness and your abominations, declares the LORD.
