Ezekiel 18:8-13

8and if he does not 1lend money at 2interest or take 34interest, if he keeps his hand from injustice and 5executes true justice between one person and another, 9if he walks in 6My statutes and keeps My ordinances so as to deal faithfully--7he is righteous and will certainly 8live,” declares the Lord God.

10“However, he may father a violent son who sheds blood, and does any one of these things to a brother 11(though he himself did not do any of these things), that is, he even eats at the mountain shrines, and 9defiles his neighbor’s wife, 12oppresses the 10poor and needy, 11commits robbery, does not restore a pledge, but raises his eyes to the idols and 12commits abomination, 1313lends money at interest and takes 14interest; will he live? He will not live! He has committed all these abominations, he shall certainly be put to death; his 15blood will be on himself.
