Ezekiel 18:31

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

³⁰ For this I will judge you, O house of Israel, each according to his ways, says the Lord Jehovah: Turn back and withdraw from all your transgressions; and iniquity shall not be to you for a stumbling block. ³¹ Cast away from you all your transgressions which ye transgressed against me, and make to you a new heart and a new spirit: and wherefore will ye die, O house of Israel? ³² For I shall not delight in the death of him dying, says the Lord Jehovah: and turn ye back and live.
