*
Say unto them ,
As I live ,
saith the Lord GOD ,
I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked ;
but that the wicked turn from his way and live :
turn ye ,
turn ye from your evil ways ;
for why will ye die ,
O house of Israel Yisra #
el #?
*
Therefore ,
thou son of man ,
say unto the children of thy people ,
The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression :
as for the wickedness of the wicked ,
he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness ;
neither shall the righteous be able to live for his righteousness in the day that he sinneth .
*
When I shall say to the righteous ,
that he shall surely live ;
if he trust to his own righteousness ,
and commit iniquity ,
all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered ;
but for his iniquity that he hath committed ,
he shall die for it .
