Ezekiel 18:21-24
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

21 But if the wicked turn away from all their sins that they have committed and keep all my statutes and do what is lawful and right, they shall surely live; they shall not die.(A) 22 None of the transgressions that they have committed shall be remembered against them, for the righteousness that they have done they shall live.(B) 23 Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked, says the Lord God, and not rather that they should turn from their ways and live?(C) 24 But when the righteous turn away from their righteousness and commit iniquity and do the same abominable things that the wicked do, shall they live? None of the righteous deeds that they have done shall be remembered, for the treachery of which they are guilty and the sin they have committed, they shall die.(D)

Ezekiel 18:21-24
Lexham English Bible

21 But if the wicked returns from all of his sins[a] that he has done and he keeps all of my statutes and he does justice and righteousness, he shall surely live; he shall not die! 22 All of his transgressions that he committed will not be remembered against[b] him. Through[c] his righteousness that he has done he shall live. 23 Have I delight by any means[d] in the death of the wicked, declares[e] the Lord Yahweh, and not at his turning from his way, so that[f] he lives? 24 And when the righteous turns[g] from his righteousness, so that[h] he does injustice, and does all of the detestable things that the wicked do, then[i] will he live because of all of his righteousness[j] that he did? Those things will not be remembered because of his infidelity that he displayed, and because of his sin that he committed.[k] Through[l] them he shall die.

New International Version

21 “But if(A) a wicked person turns away from all the sins they have committed and keeps all my decrees(B) and does what is just and right, that person will surely live; they will not die.(C) 22 None of the offenses they have committed will be remembered against them. Because of the righteous things they have done, they will live.(D) 23 Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign Lord. Rather, am I not pleased(E) when they turn from their ways and live?(F)
