Ezekiel 18:5-9

Modern English Version

⁵ But if a man is righteous
    and does that which is lawful and right,
⁶ and has not eaten on the mountains;
    nor has he lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel,
nor has he defiled his neighbor’s wife,
    nor has he approached a woman during her impurity;
⁷ and he has not oppressed anyone,
    but has restored to the debtor his pledge;
has devastated no one by violence,
    has given his bread to the hungry,
    and has covered the naked with a garment;
⁸ if he has not lent at interest,
    nor has taken any increase,
but has withdrawn his hand from iniquity,
    has executed true justice between man and man;
⁹ has walked in My statutes,
    and has kept My judgments to deal truly,
he is righteous
    and shall surely live,
    says the Lord God.
