Ezekiel 18:1-30

The word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto me again, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
What mean ye, that ye use
<04911> (8802)
this proverb
<04912>
concerning the land
<0127>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The fathers
<01>
have eaten
<0398> (8799)
sour grapes
<01155>_,
and the children's
<01121>
teeth
<08127>
are set on edge
<06949> (8799)_?
[As] I live
<02416>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
ye shall not have [occasion] any more to use
<04911> (8800)
this proverb
<04912>
in Israel
<03478>_.
Behold, all souls
<05315>
are mine; as the soul
<05315>
of the father
<01>_,
so also the soul
<05315>
of the son
<01121>
is mine: the soul
<05315>
that sinneth
<02398> (8802)_,
it shall die
<04191> (8799)_.
But if a man
<0376>
be just
<06662>_,
and do
<06213> (8804)
that which is lawful
<04941>
and right
<06666>_,
{that...: Heb. judgment and justice}
[And] hath not eaten
<0398> (8804)
upon the mountains
<02022>_,
neither hath lifted up
<05375> (8804)
his eyes
<05869>
to the idols
<01544>
of the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
neither hath defiled
<02930> (8765)
his neighbour's
<07453>
wife
<0802>_,
neither hath come near
<07126> (8799)
to a menstruous
<05079>
woman
<0802>_,
And hath not oppressed
<03238> (8686)
any
<0376>_,
[but] hath restored
<07725> (8686)
to the debtor
<02326>
his pledge
<02258>_,
hath spoiled
<01497> (8799)
none by violence
<01500>_,
hath given
<05414> (8799)
his bread
<03899>
to the hungry
<07457>_,
and hath covered
<03680> (8762)
the naked
<05903>
with a garment
<0899>_;
He [that] hath not given forth
<05414> (8799)
upon usury
<05392>_,
neither hath taken
<03947> (8799)
any increase
<08636>_,
[that] hath withdrawn
<07725> (8686)
his hand
<03027>
from iniquity
<05766>_,
hath executed
<06213> (8799)
true
<0571>
judgment
<04941>
between man
<0376>
and man
<0376>_,
Hath walked
<01980> (8762)
in my statutes
<02708>_,
and hath kept
<08104> (8804)
my judgments
<04941>_,
to deal
<06213> (8800)
truly
<0571>_;
he [is] just
<06662>_,
he shall surely
<02421> (8800)
live
<02421> (8799)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_.
If he beget
<03205> (8689)
a son
<01121>
[that is] a robber
<06530>_,
a shedder
<08210> (8802)
of blood
<01818>_,
and [that] doeth
<06213> (8804)
the like
<0251>
to [any] one
<0259>
of these [things], {robber: or, breaker up of an house} {that doeth...: or, that doeth to his brother besides any of these}
And that doeth
<06213> (8804)
not any of those [duties], but even hath eaten
<0398> (8804)
upon the mountains
<02022>_,
and defiled
<02930> (8765)
his neighbour's
<07453>
wife
<0802>_,
Hath oppressed
<03238> (8689)
the poor
<06041>
and needy
<034>_,
hath spoiled
<01497> (8804)
by violence
<01500>_,
hath not restored
<07725> (8686)
the pledge
<02258>_,
and hath lifted up
<05375> (8804)
his eyes
<05869>
to the idols
<01544>_,
hath committed
<06213> (8804)
abomination
<08441>_,
Hath given forth
<05414> (8804)
upon usury
<05392>_,
and hath taken
<03947> (8804)
increase
<08636>_:
shall he then live
<02425> (8804)_?
he shall not live
<02421> (8799)_:
he hath done
<06213> (8804)
all these abominations
<08441>_;
he shall surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8714)_;
his blood
<01818>
shall be upon him. {blood: Heb. bloods}
Now, lo, [if] he beget
<03205> (8689)
a son
<01121>_,
that seeth
<07200> (8799)
all his father's
<01>
sins
<02403>
which he hath done
<06213> (8804)_,
and considereth
<07200> (8799)_,
and doeth
<06213> (8799)
not such like
<02004>_,
[That] hath not eaten
<0398> (8804)
upon the mountains
<02022>_,
neither hath lifted up
<05375> (8804)
his eyes
<05869>
to the idols
<01544>
of the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
hath not defiled
<02930> (8765)
his neighbour's
<07453>
wife
<0802>_,
Neither hath oppressed
<03238> (8689)
any
<0376>_,
hath not withholden
<02254> (8804)
the pledge
<02258>_,
neither hath spoiled
<01497> (8804)
by violence
<01500>_,
[but] hath given
<05414> (8804)
his bread
<03899>
to the hungry
<07457>_,
and hath covered
<03680> (8765)
the naked
<05903>
with a garment
<0899>_,
{hath not...: Heb. hath not pledged the pledge, or, taken to pledge}
[That] hath taken off
<07725> (8689)
his hand
<03027>
from the poor
<06041>_,
[that] hath not received
<03947> (8804)
usury
<05392>
nor increase
<08636>_,
hath executed
<06213> (8804)
my judgments
<04941>_,
hath walked
<01980> (8804)
in my statutes
<02708>_;
he shall not die
<04191> (8799)
for the iniquity
<05771>
of his father
<01>_,
he shall surely
<02421> (8800)
live
<02421> (8799)_.
[As for] his father
<01>_,
because he cruelly
<06233>
oppressed
<06231> (8804)_,
spoiled
<01497> (8804)
his brother
<0251>
by violence
<01499>_,
and did
<06213> (8804)
[that] which [is] not good
<02896>
among
<08432>
his people
<05971>_,
lo, even he shall die
<04191> (8801)
in his iniquity
<05771>_.
Yet say
<0559> (8804)
ye, Why? doth not the son
<01121>
bear
<05375> (8804)
the iniquity
<05771>
of the father
<01>_?
When the son
<01121>
hath done
<06213> (8804)
that which is lawful
<04941>
and right
<06666>_,
[and] hath kept
<08104> (8804)
all my statutes
<02708>_,
and hath done
<06213> (8799)
them, he shall surely
<02421> (8800)
live
<02421> (8799)_.
The soul
<05315>
that sinneth
<02398> (8802)_,
it shall die
<04191> (8799)_.
The son
<01121>
shall not bear
<05375> (8799)
the iniquity
<05771>
of the father
<01>_,
neither shall the father
<01>
bear
<05375> (8799)
the iniquity
<05771>
of the son
<01121>_:
the righteousness
<06666>
of the righteous
<06662>
shall be upon him, and the wickedness
<07564>
of the wicked
<07563>
shall be upon him.
But if the wicked
<07563>
will turn
<07725> (8799)
from all his sins
<02403>
that he hath committed
<06213> (8804)_,
and keep
<08104> (8804)
all my statutes
<02708>_,
and do
<06213> (8804)
that which is lawful
<04941>
and right
<06666>_,
he shall surely
<02421> (8800)
live
<02421> (8799)_,
he shall not die
<04191> (8799)_.
All his transgressions
<06588>
that he hath committed
<06213> (8804)_,
they shall not be mentioned
<02142> (8735)
unto him: in his righteousness
<06666>
that he hath done
<06213> (8804)
he shall live
<02421> (8799)_.
Have I any pleasure
<02654> (8799)
at all
<02654> (8800)
that the wicked
<07563>
should die
<04194>_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_:
[and] not that he should return
<07725> (8800)
from his ways
<01870>_,
and live
<02421> (8804)_?
But when the righteous
<06662>
turneth away
<07725> (8800)
from his righteousness
<06666>_,
and committeth
<06213> (8804)
iniquity
<05766>_,
[and] doeth
<06213> (8799)
according to all the abominations
<08441>
that the wicked
<07563>
[man] doeth
<06213> (8804)_,
shall he live
<02425> (8804)_?
All his righteousness
<06666>
that he hath done
<06213> (8804)
shall not be mentioned
<02142> (8735)_:
in his trespass
<04603> (8804)
that he hath trespassed
<04604>_,
and in his sin
<02403>
that he hath sinned
<02398> (8804)_,
in them shall he die
<04191> (8799)_.
Yet ye say
<0559> (8804)_,
The way
<01870>
of the Lord
<0136>
is not equal
<08505> (8735)_.
Hear
<08085> (8798)
now, O house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Is not my way
<01870>
equal
<08505> (8735)_?
are not your ways
<01870>
unequal
<08505> (8735)_?
When a righteous
<06662>
[man] turneth away
<07725> (8800)
from his righteousness
<06666>_,
and committeth
<06213> (8804)
iniquity
<05766>_,
and dieth
<04191> (8804)
in them; for his iniquity
<05766>
that he hath done
<06213> (8804)
shall he die
<04191> (8799)_.
Again, when the wicked
<07563>
[man] turneth away
<07725> (8800)
from his wickedness
<07564>
that he hath committed
<06213> (8804)_,
and doeth
<06213> (8799)
that which is lawful
<04941>
and right
<06666>_,
he shall save
<02421> (0)
his soul
<05315>
alive
<02421> (8762)_.
Because he considereth
<07200> (8799)_,
and turneth away
<07725> (8799)
from all his transgressions
<06588>
that he hath committed
<06213> (8804)_,
he shall surely
<02421> (8800)
live
<02421> (8799)_,
he shall not die
<04191> (8799)_.
Yet saith
<0559> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
The way
<01870>
of the Lord
<0136>
is not equal
<08505> (8735)_.
O house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
are not my ways
<01870>
equal
<08505> (8735)_?
are not your ways
<01870>
unequal
<08505> (8735)_?
Therefore I will judge
<08199> (8799)
you, O house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
every one
<0376>
according to his ways
<01870>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_.
Repent
<07725> (8798)_,
and turn
<07725> (8685)
[yourselves] from all your transgressions
<06588>_;
so iniquity
<05771>
shall not be your ruin
<04383>_.
{yourselves: or, others}
