Ezekiel 18:27-32

27But when a wickedH7563 personH7563 turnsH7725 awayH7725 1from his wickednessH7564 whichH834 he has committedH6213 and practicesH6213 justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666, he will saveH2421 his lifeH5315. 28Since he understoodH7200 and turnedH7725 awayH7725 from allH3605 his offensesH6588 whichH834 he had committedH6213, he shall certainlyH2421 liveH2421; he shall not dieH4191. 29But the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 saysH559, ‘The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is not rightH8505.’ Are My waysH1870 not rightH8505, houseH1004 of IsraelH3478? Is it not your waysH1870 that are not rightH8505?

30“ThereforeH3651 I will judgeH8199 you, houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, eachH376 according to his conductH1870,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068. “2RepentH7725 and turnH7725 awayH7725 from allH3605 your offensesH6588, so that wrongdoingH5771 does not becomeH1961 a stumblingH4383 blockH4383 to you. 313HurlH7993 awayH7993 from you allH3605 your offensesH6588 whichH834 you have committedH6586 and makeH6213 yourselves a 4newH2319 heartH3820 and a newH2319 spiritH7307! For whyH4100 should you dieH4191, houseH1004 of IsraelH3478? 32For I takeH2654 5noH3808 pleasureH2654 in the deathH4194 of anyone who diesH4191,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068. “Therefore, repentH7725 and liveH2421!”
