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

Return ye, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions, so iniquity shall not be your ruin. ³¹ Cast away from you all your transgressions, by which ye have transgressed, and make you a new heart and a new spirit. For why will ye die, O house of Israel? ³² For I have no pleasure in the death of him who dies, says lord LORD, therefore turn yourselves back, and live.
