Turn and Live
19 “Yet you say, ‘Why (A)should the son not bear the guilt of the father?’ Because the son has done what is lawful and right, and has kept all My statutes and observed them, he shall surely live. 20 (B)The soul who sins shall die. (C)The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. (D)The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, (E)and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.
21 “But (F)if a wicked man turns from all his sins which he has committed, keeps all My statutes, and does what is lawful and right, he shall surely live; he shall not die.
