their abominations; but, as [if that were] a very little [thing],
you were more corrupt than they in all your ways.
016:048 As I live, says the Lord Yahweh, Sodom your sister has not done,
she nor her daughters, as you have done, you and your daughters.
016:049 Behold, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom:
pride, fullness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her
and in her daughters; neither did she strengthen the hand
of the poor and needy.
016:050 They were haughty, and committed abomination before me:
therefore I took them away as I saw [good].
016:051 Neither has Samaria committed half of your sins; but you have
multiplied your abominations more than they, and have justified
your sisters by all your abominations which you have done.
016:052 You also, bear you your own shame, in that you have given judgment
for your sisters; through your sins that you have committed
more abominable than they, they are more righteous that you:
yes, be also confounded, and bear your shame, in that you
