Ezekiel 18:14-17
New King James Version
14 “If, however, he begets a son
Who sees all the sins which his father has done,
And considers but does not do likewise;
15 (A)Who has not eaten [a]on the mountains,
Nor lifted his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel,
Nor defiled his neighbor’s wife;
16 Has not oppressed anyone,
Nor withheld a pledge,
Nor robbed by violence,
But has given his bread to the hungry
And covered the naked with clothing;
17 Who has withdrawn his hand from [b]the poor
And not received usury or increase,
But has executed My judgments
And walked in My statutes—
He shall not die for the iniquity of his father;
He shall surely live!

New International Version
14 “But suppose this son has a son who sees all the sins his father commits, and though he sees them, he does not do such things:(A)
15 “He does not eat at the mountain shrines(B)
or look to the idols(C) of Israel.
He does not defile his neighbor’s wife.
16 He does not oppress anyone
or require a pledge for a loan.
He does not commit robbery
but gives his food to the hungry(D)
and provides clothing for the naked.(E)
17 He withholds his hand from mistreating the poor
and takes no interest or profit from them.
He keeps my laws(F) and follows my decrees.
He will not die for his father’s sin; he will surely live.
