Ezekiel 18:22-24
Lexham English Bible
22 All of his transgressions that he committed will not be remembered against[a] him. Through[b] his righteousness that he has done he shall live. 23 Have I delight by any means[c] in the death of the wicked, declares[d] the Lord Yahweh, and not at his turning from his way, so that[e] he lives? 24 And when the righteous turns[f] from his righteousness, so that[g] he does injustice, and does all of the detestable things that the wicked do, then[h] will he live because of all of his righteousness[i] that he did? Those things will not be remembered because of his infidelity that he displayed, and because of his sin that he committed.[j] Through[k] them he shall die.

Ezekiel 18:22-24
New International Version
22 None of the offenses they have committed will be remembered against them. Because of the righteous things they have done, they will live.(A) 23 Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign Lord. Rather, am I not pleased(B) when they turn from their ways and live?(C)
24 “But if a righteous person turns(D) from their righteousness and commits sin and does the same detestable things the wicked person does, will they live? None of the righteous things that person has done will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness(E) they are guilty of and because of the sins they have committed, they will die.(F)
