Ezekiel 18:23

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

²² None of his transgressions which he hath committed shall be remembered against him, - In his righteousness which he hath done, he shall live. ²³ Could I take delight, in the death of the lawless? Demandeth My Lord. Yahweh. Must it not be in his turning from his ways in which case he shall live? ²⁴ But when a righteous man I shall turn away I from his righteousness and do that which is perverse, Shall do according to all the abominations which the lawless man hath done Shall he live? None of his righteous acts which he hath done shall be remembered, In his treachery wherein he hath been treacherous, And in his sin wherein he hath sinned In them, shall he die.
