Ezekiel 33:11-20 Say to them, I live, says the Lord Jehovah, if I shall delight in the death of the unjust; but in the turning back of the unjust one from his way, and he lived: turn back, turn back from your evil ways: and wherefore will ye die, O house of Israel?

JuliaSmith⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹¹ Say to them, I live, says the Lord Jehovah, if I shall delight in the death of the unjust; but in the turning back of the unjust one from his way, and he lived: turn back, turn back from your evil ways: and wherefore will ye die, O house of Israel? ¹² And thou, son of man, say to the sons of my people, The justice of the just shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression: and the injustice of the unjust, he shall not stumble in it in the day of his turning back from his injustice; and the just shall not be able to live in the day of his sinning. ¹³ In my saying to the just, living, he shall live; and he trusted upon his justice, and he did evil, all his justice shall not be remembered; and in his iniquity which he did he shall die in it ¹⁴ And in my saying to the unjust, Dying, thou shalt die; and he turned back from his sinning and he did judgment and justice; ¹⁵ The unjust shall turn back the pledge he shall restore the spoil, going in the laws of the living not to do evil; living, he shall live, he shall not die. ¹⁶ All his sins which he sinned shall not be remembered to him: he did judgment and justice; living, he shall live. ¹⁷ And the sons of my people said, The way of Jehovah will not make even: and they their way shall not make even. ¹⁸ In the turning back of the just from his justice and doing iniquity, he shall die in them. ¹⁹ And in the turning back of the unjust from his injustice and doing judgment and justice upon them, he shall live. ²⁰ And ye said, The way of Jehovah will not make even. I will judge you each according to his ways, O house of Israel.
