Ezekiel 16:43-45
The Voice
43 Because you failed to remember the days of your youth but instead you infuriated Me with countless perverted love affairs, I will pay you back for every ounce of indecency you instigated. I, the Eternal Lord, proclaim this.
Did you not add vulgar acts to your streak of shocking sins? 44 Everyone who likes to quote proverbs will certainly be quoting this proverb about you: “Like mother, like daughter.” 45 You truly are the daughter of your pagan mother, who loathed her husband and despised her children. You truly are a sister of your sisters, who loathed their husbands and despised their children. Your mother was a Hittite, and your father was an Amorite.
