Ezekiel 18:24

18:24 “But if a righteous man turns away from his righteousness and practices wrongdoing according to all the abominable practices the wicked carry out, will he live? All his righteous acts will not be remembered; because of the unfaithful acts he has done and the sin he has committed, he will die. 1 

Ezekiel 29:18

29:18 “Son of man, King Nebuchadrezzar 2  of Babylon made his army labor hard against Tyre. 3  Every head was rubbed bald and every shoulder rubbed bare; yet he and his army received no wages from Tyre for the work he carried out against it.

Ezekiel 33:12

33:12 “And you, son of man, say to your people, 4  ‘The righteousness of the righteous will not deliver him if he rebels. 5  As for the wicked, his wickedness will not make him stumble if he turns from it. 6  The righteous will not be able to live by his righteousness 7  if he sins.’ 8 

Ezekiel 46:2

46:2 The prince will enter by way of the porch of the gate from the outside, and will stand by the doorpost of the gate. The priests will provide his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he will bow down at the threshold of the gate and then go out. But the gate will not be closed until evening.

Ezekiel 46:12

46:12 When the prince provides a freewill offering, a burnt offering, or peace offerings as a voluntary offering to the Lord, the gate facing east will be opened for him, and he will provide his burnt offering and his peace offerings just as he did on the Sabbath. Then he will go out, and the gate will be closed after he goes out. 9 

1 tn Heb “because of them he will die.”

2 tn Heb “Nebuchadrezzar” is a variant and more correct spelling of Nebuchadnezzar, as the Babylonian name Nabu-kudurri-usur has an “r” rather than an “n” (so also in v. 19).

3 sn Nebuchadnezzar besieged Tyre from 585 to 571 b.c.

4 tn Heb “the sons of your people.”

5 tn Heb “in the day of his rebellion.” The statement envisions a godly person rejecting what is good and becoming sinful. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:247-48.

6 tn Heb “and the wickedness of the wicked, he will not stumble in it in the day of his turning from his wickedness.”

7 tn Heb “by it.”
