Ezekiel 18:27-32
English Standard Version
27 Again, (A)when a wicked person turns away from the wickedness he has committed and does what is just and right, he shall save his life. 28 Because he considered and turned away from all the transgressions that he had committed, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 29 Yet the house of Israel says, ‘The way of the Lord is not just.’ O house of Israel, are my ways not just? Is it not your ways that are not just?
30 “Therefore (B)I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, declares the Lord God. (C)Repent and turn from all your transgressions, (D)lest iniquity be your ruin.[a] 31 (E)Cast away from you all the transgressions that you have committed, and (F)make yourselves a new heart and a new spirit! (G)Why will you die, O house of Israel? 32 (H)For I have no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Lord God; (I)so turn, and live.”
