Ezekiel 33:10-20

10“Now as for you, sonH1121 of manH120, sayH559 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, ‘ThisH3651 is whatH3651 you have 1saidH559: “SurelyH3588 our offensesH6588 and our sinsH2403 are upon us, and we are 2rottingH4743 awayH4743 in them; 3howH349 then can we 4surviveH2421?”’ 11SayH559 to them, ‘5As I liveH2416!’ declaresH5002 the LordH136 6GodH3068, ‘I takeH2654 7noH518 pleasureH2654 atH518 allH518 in the deathH4194 of the wickedH7563, but ratherH3588H518 that the wickedH7563 8turnH7725 from his wayH1870 and liveH2421. 9TurnH7725 backH7725, turnH7725 backH7725 from your evilH7451 waysH1870! WhyH4100 then should you dieH4191, houseH1004 of IsraelH3478?’ 12And you, sonH1121 of manH120, sayH559 to 10your fellowH1121H5971 citizensH5971, ‘The 11righteousnessH6666 of a righteousH6662 oneH6662 will not saveH5337 him on the dayH3117 of his offenseH6588, and as for the wickednessH7564 of a wickedH7563 oneH7563, he will 12not stumbleH3782 because of it on the dayH3117 when he turnsH7725 from his wickednessH7562; whereas a righteousH6662 oneH6662 will not beH3201 ableH3201 to liveH2421 13by his righteousness on the dayH3117 when he commitsH2398 sinH2398.’ 13When I sayH559 to the righteousH6662 that he will certainlyH2421 liveH2421, and he so trustsH982 in his righteousnessH6666 that he 14commitsH6213 injusticeH5766, noneH3605H3808 of his righteousH6666 deedsH6666 will be rememberedH2142; but for that same injusticeH5766 of his whichH834 he has committedH6213 he will dieH4191. 14But when I sayH559 to the wickedH7563, ‘You will certainlyH4191 dieH4191,’ and he 15turnsH7725 from his sinH2403 and practicesH6213 16justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666, 15if a wickedH7563 personH7563 returnsH7725 a pledgeH2258, 17paysH7999 backH7999 whatH1500 he has takenH1500 byH1500 robberyH1500, walksH1980 by the 18statutesH2708 19which ensure lifeH2425 withoutH1115 committingH6213 injusticeH5766, he shall certainlyH2421 liveH2421; he shall not dieH4191. 1620NoneH3605H3808 of his sinsH2403 that he has committedH2398 will be rememberedH2142 against him. He has practicedH6213 justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666; he shall certainlyH2421 liveH2421.

17“Yet 21your 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 22commitsH6213 injusticeH5766, then he shall dieH4191 in 23it. 19But when the wickedH7563 turnsH7725 from his wickednessH7564 and practicesH6213 justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666, he will liveH2421 by them. 20Yet you sayH559, ‘24The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is not rightH8505.’ I will judgeH8199 eachH376 of you according to his waysH1870, houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.”
