Ezekiel 33:17-20
New American Standard Bible
17 “Yet [a]your fellow citizens say, ‘The way of the Lord is not right,’ when it is their own way that is not right. 18 When the righteous turns from his righteousness and (A)commits injustice, then he shall die in [b]it. 19 But when the wicked turns from his wickedness and practices justice and righteousness, he will live by them. 20 Yet you say, ‘(B)The way of the Lord is not right.’ I will judge each of you according to his ways, house of Israel.”
