43 Why will all these things happen? Because you did not remember what happened when you were young. You did all those bad things and made me angry. So I had to punish you for doing them, but you planned even more terrible things.” This is what the Lord GOD said.
44 “All the people who talk about you will now have one more thing to say. They will say, ‘Like mother, like daughter.’
45 You are your mother’s daughter. You don’t care about your husband or your children. You are like your sister. Both of you hated your husband and your children. You are like your parents. Your mother was a Hittite and your father was an Amorite.
46 Your older sister was Samaria. She lived to the north of you with her daughters. Your younger sister was Sodom. She lived to the south of you with her daughters.
47 You did all the terrible things they did, but you also did much worse!
48 I am the Lord GOD. As I live, I swear that your sister Sodom and her daughters never did as many bad things as you and your daughters.
49 “Your sister Sodom and her daughters were proud. They had too much to eat and too much time on their hands, and they did not help poor, helpless people.
