New Testament

Ezekiel 16:40-44 New International Version (NIV)

40. They will bring a mob against you, who will stone you and hack you to pieces with their swords.

41. They will burn down your houses and inflict punishment on you in the sight of many women. I will put a stop to your prostitution, and you will no longer pay your lovers.

42. Then my wrath against you will subside and my jealous anger will turn away from you; I will be calm and no longer angry.

43. “ ‘Because you did not remember the days of your youth but enraged me with all these things, I will surely bring down on your head what you have done, declares the Sovereign Lord. Did you not add lewdness to all your other detestable practices?

44. “ ‘Everyone who quotes proverbs will quote this proverb about you: “Like mother, like daughter.”
