Ezekiel 33:12-19

12And you, sonH1121 of manH120, sayH559 to 1your fellowH1121H5971 citizensH5971, ‘The 2righteousnessH6666 of a righteousH6662 manH6662 will not deliverH5337 him in the dayH3117 of his transgressionH6588, and as for the wickednessH7564 of the wickedH7563, he will 3not stumbleH3782 because of it in the dayH3117 when he turnsH7725 from his wickednessH7562; whereas a righteousH6662 manH6662 will not be ableH3201 to liveH2421 4by his righteousness on the dayH3117 when he commitsH2398 sinH2398.’ 13When I sayH559 to the righteousH6662 he will surelyH2421 liveH2421, and he so trustsH982 in his righteousnessH6666 that he 5commitsH6213 iniquityH5766, noneH3605H3808 of his righteousH6666 deedsH6666 will be rememberedH2142; but in that same iniquityH5766 of his whichH834 he has committedH6213 he will dieH4191. 14But when I sayH559 to the wickedH7563, ‘You will surelyH4191 dieH4191,’ and he 6turnsH7725 from his sinH2403 and practicesH6213 7justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666, 15if a wickedH7563 manH7563 restoresH7725 a pledgeH2258, 8paysH7999 backH7999 whatH1500 he has takenH1500 by robberyH1500, walksH1980 by the 9statutesH2708 10which ensure lifeH2425 withoutH1115 committingH6213 iniquityH5766, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421; he shall not dieH4191. 1611NoneH3605H3808 of his sinsH2403 that he has committedH2398 will be rememberedH2142 against him. He has practicedH6213 justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666; he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421.

17“Yet 12your fellowH1121H5971 citizensH5971 sayH559, ‘The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is not rightH8505,’ when it is their own wayH1870 that is not rightH8505. 18When the righteousH6662 turnsH7725 from his righteousnessH6666 and 13commitsH6213 iniquityH5766, then he shall dieH4191 in 14it. 19But when the wickedH7563 turnsH7725 from his wickednessH7564 and practicesH6213 justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666, he will liveH2421 by them.
