Ezekiel 16:58 In-Context

57 before your wickedness was uncovered? Now you are a mockery to the daughters of Aram and all her neighbors, and to the daughters of the Philistines, those all around who despise you.

59 Yes, thus says the Lord God: I will deal with you as you have done, you who have despised the oath, breaking the covenant;
60 yet I will remember my covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish with you an everlasting covenant.
