² Son of man, there were two women, daughters of one mother:

⁷ And I said, After she has done all these things she will come back to me; but she did not. And her false sister Judah saw it.

⁸ And though she saw that, because Israel, turning away from me, had been untrue to me, I had put her away and given her a statement in writing ending the relation between us, still Judah, her false sister, had no fear, but went and did the same.

⁹ So that through all her loose behaviour the land became unclean, and she was untrue, giving herself to stones and trees.

¹⁰ But for all this, her false sister Judah has not come back to me with all her heart, but with deceit, says the Lord.

⁴⁴ See, in every common saying about you it will be said, As the mother is, so is her daughter.

⁴⁵ You are the daughter of your mother whose soul is turned in disgust from her husband and her children; and you are the sister of your sisters who were turned in disgust from their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite.

⁴⁶ Your older sister is Samaria, living at your left hand, she and her daughters: and your younger sister, living at your right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
