10 “Now as for you, son of man, say to the house of Israel, ‘This is what you have [a]said: “Surely our offenses and our sins are upon us, and we are (A)rotting away in them; (B)how then can we [b]survive?”’ 11 Say to them, ‘(C)As I live!’ declares the Lord [c]God, ‘I take (D)no pleasure at all in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked (E)turn from his way and live. (F)Turn back, turn back from your evil ways! Why then should you die, house of Israel?’

God Hates the Death of the Wicked
10 “‘Now, Son of Man, tell this to the house of Israel:
‘You keep saying, “Our crimes and sins burden us so much that we’re rotting away, so how can we keep on living?”’
11 “Tell them, ‘As certainly as I’m alive and living,’ declares the Lord God, ‘I receive no pleasure in the death of the wicked. Instead, my pleasure is that the wicked repent from their behavior[a] and live. Turn back! Turn back, all of you, from your wicked behavior! Why do you have to die, you house of Israel?’”
