Ezekiel 16:58 — Meaning and Application

For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride, {mentioned: Heb. for a report, or, hearing} {pride: Heb. prides, or, excellencies}

Before thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time of {thy} reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all {that are} round about her, the daughters of the Philistines, which despise thee round about. {Syria: Heb. Aram} {despise: or, spoil}

Thou hast borne thy lewdness and thine abominations, saith the LORD. {borne: Heb. borne them}

For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even deal with thee as thou hast done, which hast despised the oath in breaking the covenant.

Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant.
