Their grapes contain venom,
their clusters of grapes are bitter.
Isaiah 1:9-10

you leaders of Sodom!
Pay attention to our God’s rebuke,
people of Gomorrah!
Ezekiel 16:46-52
16:46 Your older sister was Samaria, who lived north
of you with her daughters, and your younger sister, who lived south
of you, was Sodom
with her daughters.
16:47 Have you not copied their behavior
and practiced their abominable deeds? In a short time
you became even more depraved in all your conduct than they were!
16:48 As surely as I live, declares the sovereign
Lord, your sister Sodom and her daughters never behaved as wickedly as you and your daughters have behaved.
16:49 “‘See here – this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters had majesty, abundance of food, and enjoyed carefree ease, but they did not help the poor and needy.
16:50 They were haughty and practiced abominable deeds before me. Therefore when I saw it I removed them.
16:51 Samaria has not committed half the sins you have; you have done more abominable deeds than they did. You have made your sisters appear righteous with all the abominable things you have done.
16:52 So now, bear your disgrace, because you have given your sisters reason to justify their behavior. Because the sins you have committed were more abominable than those of your sisters; they have become more righteous than you. So now, be ashamed and bear the disgrace of making your sisters appear righteous.

for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’”
