Ezekiel 33:12-16

Lexham English Bible

¹² “So^[a] you, son of man,^[b] say to your people^[c] that the righteousness of the righteous shall not save him in the day of his transgression, and the wickedness of the wicked will not cause him to stumble^[d] on the day of his returning from his wickedness; and the righteous will not be able to live by it on the day when he returns to his sin. ¹³ When I say to the righteous, ‘Certainly he will live,’ and he trusted in^[e] his righteousness, and he turns and he does injustice, all of his righteousness^[f] will not be remembered, and because of his injustice that he did, because of it he will die. ¹⁴ And when I say to the wicked, ‘Certainly you will die,’ but^[g] he returns from his sin and he does justice and righteousness— ¹⁵ for example, the wicked returns a pledge for a loan, he restores stolen property,^[h] he goes in the statutes of life so as not to do injustice—certainly he will live; he will not die. ¹⁶ All of his sins that he committed,^[i] they will not be remembered against^[j] him, and he did justice and righteousness; certainly he will live.
