Ezekiel 33:9-11
New American Standard Bible
9 But if you on your part warn a wicked person to turn from his way and he (A)does not turn from his way, he will die for his wrongdoing, but you have (B)saved your life.
10 “Now as for you, son of man, say to the house of Israel, ‘This is what you have [a]said: “Surely our offenses and our sins are upon us, and we are (C)rotting away in them; (D)how then can we [b]survive?”’ 11 Say to them, ‘(E)As I live!’ declares the Lord [c]God, ‘I take (F)no pleasure at all in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked (G)turn from his way and live. (H)Turn back, turn back from your evil ways! Why then should you die, house of Israel?’
