Ezekiel 18:23-32

23Have I anyH3808 pleasureH2654 in the deathH4194 of the wickedH7563? saith the LordH136 GODH136: and notH3808 ratherH3808 that he should returnH7725 from his wayH1870, and liveH2421? 24But when the righteousH6662 turneth awayH7725 from his righteousnessH6666, and committeth iniquityH5766, and doeth according to allH3605 the abominationsH8441 that the wickedH7563 manH7563 doeth, shall he live? NoneH3808 of his righteousH6662 deedsH6666 that he hath doneH6213 shall be rememberedH2142: in his trespassH4604 that he hath trespassed, and in his sinH2398 that he hath sinnedH2398, in them shall he dieH4191. 25Yet ye sayH559, The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is notH3808 equal. HearH8085 nowH4994, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: Is notH3808 my wayH1870 equal? are notH3808 your waysH1870 unequal? 26When the righteousH6662 manH6662 turneth awayH7725 from his righteousnessH6666, and committeth iniquityH5766, and dieth therein; in his iniquityH5766 that he hath doneH6213 shall he dieH4191. 27AgainH7725, when the wickedH7563 manH7563 turneth awayH7725 from his wickednessH7564 that he hath committedH6213, and doeth that whichH834 is lawful and rightH4941, he shall saveH5315 his soulH5315 aliveH2421. 28BecauseH834 he considereth, and turneth awayH7725 from allH3605 his transgressionsH6588 that he hath committedH6213, he shall surelyH4191 liveH2421, he shall notH3808 dieH4191. 29Yet saith the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is notH3808 equal. O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, are notH3808 my waysH1870 equal? are notH3808 your waysH1870 unequal? 30Therefore I will judgeH8199 youH3605, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, everyH3605 one accordingH376 to his waysH1870, saith the LordH136 GODH136. ReturnH7725 ye, and turnH7725 yourselves from allH3605 your transgressionsH6588; soH3651 iniquityH5771 shall notH3808 be your ruin. 31CastH7993 awayH7993 from youH834 allH3605 your transgressionsH6588, whereto ye have transgressedH6586; and makeH6213 youH834 a newH2319 heartH3820 and a newH2319 spiritH7307: for whyH4100 will ye dieH4191, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478? 32For I have noH3808 pleasureH2654 in the deathH4191 of him that dieth, saith the LordH136 GODH136: wherefore turnH7725 yourselves, and liveH2421.
