Ezekiel 18:21

God's Just Treatment Of Individuals, Both Righteous And Wicked

²⁰ The person who sins is the one who will die. A son will not suffer for his father's iniquity, and a father will not suffer for his son's iniquity; the righteous person will be judged according to his righteousness, and the wicked person according to his wickedness. ²¹ "But if the wicked person turns from all the sin he has committed and observes all my statutes and does what is just and right, he will surely live; he will not die. ²² None of the sins he has committed will be held against him; because of the righteousness he has done, he will live.
