| 1 | The word of Yahweh came to me again, saying, |
| 2 | What do you mean, that you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children`s teeth are set on edge? | Ezk 17:12 Isa 3:15 Ro 9:20 |
| 3 | As I live, says the Lord Yahweh, you shall not have [occasion] any more to use this proverb in Israel. | Ezk 18:19 Ezk 18:20 Ezk 18:30 Ezk 33:11-20 Ezk 36:31 Ezk 36:32 Ro 3:19 |
| 4 | Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul who sins, he shall die. | Nm 16:22 Nm 27:16 Zc 12:1 Heb 12:9 |
| 5 | But if a man is just, and does that which is lawful and right, | Ps 15:2-5 Ps 24:4-6 Mt 7:21-27 Ro 2:7-10 Jm 1:22-25 Jm 2:14-26 1Jn 2:3 1Jn 2:29 1Jn 3:7 1Jn 5:2-5 Rev 22:14 |
| 6 | and has not eaten on the mountains, neither has lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither has defiled his neighbor`s wife, neither has come near to a woman in her impurity, | Ezk 18:11 Ezk 18:15 Ezk 6:13 Ezk 20:28 Ezk 22:9 Ex 34:15 Nm 25:2 1Co 10:20 |
| 7 | and has not wronged any, but has restored to the debtor his pledge, has taken nothing by robbery, has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered the naked with a garment; | Ezk 18:12 Ezk 18:16 Ezk 18:18 Ezk 22:12 Ezk 22:13 Ezk 22:27-29 Ex 22:21-24 Ex 23:9 Lv 19:15 Lv 25:14 1Sa 12:3 1Sa 12:4 Jb 31:13-22 Pr 3:31 Pr 14:31 Pr 22:22 Pr 22:23 Isa 1:17 Isa 5:7 Isa 33:15 Isa 58:6 Jer 7:6 Jer 7:7 Am 2:6 Am 8:4-6 Mic 2:1 Mic 3:2 Zc 7:9-11 Mal 3:5 Jm 5:1-6 |
| 8 | he who has not given forth on interest, neither has taken any increase, who has withdrawn his hand from iniquity, has executed true justice between man and man, | Ezk 18:13 Ezk 18:17 Ezk 22:12 Ex 22:25 Lv 25:35-37 Dt 23:19 Dt 23:20 Ne 5:1-11 Ps 15:5 Pr 28:8 Jer 15:10 |
| 9 | has walked in my statutes, and has kept my ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, says the Lord Yahweh. | Ezk 18:17 Ezk 20:13 Ezk 33:15 Ezk 36:27 Ezk 37:24 Dt 4:1 Dt 5:1 Dt 6:1 Dt 6:2 Dt 10:12 Dt 10:13 Dt 11:1 Ne 9:13 Ne 9:14 Ps 19:7-11 Ps 105:44 Ps 105:45 Ps 119:1-6 Lk 1:6 Jn 14:21 Ac 24:16 Jm 1:22-25 |
| 10 | If he fathers a son who is a robber, a shedder of blood, and who does any one of these things, | Lv 19:13 Mal 3:8 Mal 3:9 Jn 18:40 |
| 11 | and who does not any of those [duties], but even has eaten on the mountains, and defiled his neighbor`s wife, | Ezk 18:7 Mt 7:21-27 Lk 11:28 Jn 13:17 Jn 15:14 Php 4:9 Jm 2:17 1Jn 3:22 Rev 22:14 |
| 12 | has wronged the poor and needy, has taken by robbery, has not restored the pledge, and has lifted up his eyes to the idols, has committed abomination, | Ezk 18:7 Ezk 18:16 Hos 12:7 Am 4:1 Zc 7:10 Jm 2:6 |
| 13 | has given forth on interest, and has taken increase; shall he then live? he shall not live: he has done all these abominations; he shall surely die; his blood shall be on him. | Ezk 18:8 Ezk 18:17 |
| 14 | Now, behold, if he fathers a son, who sees all his father`s sins, which he has done, and fears, and does not such like; | Ezk 18:10 Pr 17:21 Pr 23:24 |
| 15 | who has not eaten on the mountains, neither has lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, has not defiled his neighbor`s wife, | Ezk 18:6 Ezk 18:7 Ezk 18:11-13 |
| 16 | neither has wronged any, has not taken anything to pledge, neither has taken by robbery, but has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered the naked with a garment; | Jb 22:7 Jb 31:19 Pr 22:9 Pr 25:21 Pr 31:20 Ec 11:1 Ec 11:2 Isa 58:7-10 Lk 11:41 Lk 14:13 |
| 17 | who has withdrawn his hand from the poor, who has not received interest nor increase, has executed my ordinances, has walked in my statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live. | Ezk 18:8 Jb 29:16 Pr 14:31 Pr 29:7 Pr 29:14 Jer 22:16 Dn 4:27 Mt 18:27-35 Lk 19:8 |
| 18 | As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, robbed his brother, and did that which is not good among his people, behold, he shall die in his iniquity. | Ezk 18:4 Ezk 18:20 Ezk 18:24 Ezk 18:26 Ezk 3:18 Isa 3:11 Jn 8:21 Jn 8:24 |
| 19 | Yet say you, Why does not the son bear the iniquity of the father? when the son has done that which is lawful and right, and has kept all my statutes, and has done them, he shall surely live. | Ex 20:5 Dt 5:9 2Ki 23:26 2Ki 24:3 2Ki 24:4 Jer 15:4 Lam 5:7 |
| 20 | The soul who sins, he shall die: the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son; the righteousness of the righteous shall be on him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be on him. | Ezk 18:4 Ezk 18:13 Dt 24:16 1Ki 14:13 2Ki 14:6 2Ki 22:18-20 2Ch 25:4 Jer 31:29 Jer 31:30 |
| 21 | But if the wicked turn from all his sins that he has committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die. | Ezk 18:27 Ezk 18:28 Ezk 18:30 Ezk 33:11-16 Ezk 33:19-16 2Ch 33:12 2Ch 33:13 Pr 28:13 Isa 1:16-20 Isa 55:6 Isa 55:7 Lk 24:47 Ac 3:19 Ac 26:18-20 1Ti 1:13-16 Jm 4:8-10 |
| 22 | None of his transgressions that he has committed shall be remembered against him: in his righteousness that he has done he shall live. | Ezk 18:24 Ezk 33:16 1Ki 17:18 Ps 25:7 Ps 32:1 Ps 32:2 Ps 51:1 Ps 103:12 Isa 43:25 Jer 31:34 Jer 50:20 Mic 7:19 Ro 8:1 Heb 8:12 Heb 10:3 Heb 10:4 |
| 23 | Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked? says the Lord Yahweh; and not rather that he should return from his way, and live? | Ezk 18:32 Ezk 33:11 Lam 3:33 Hos 11:8 1Ti 2:4 2Pe 3:9 |
| 24 | But when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does, shall he live? None of his righteous deeds that he has done shall be remembered: in his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has sinned, in them shall he die. | Ezk 18:26 Ezk 3:20 Ezk 3:21 Ezk 33:12 Ezk 33:13 Ezk 33:18 1Sa 15:11 2Ch 24:2 2Ch 24:17-22 Ps 36:3 Ps 36:4 Ps 125:5 Zep 1:6 Mt 13:20 Mt 13:21 Jn 6:66-70 Ga 5:7 Heb 10:38 Heb 10:39 2Pe 2:18-22 1Jn 2:19 1Jn 5:16-18 Jud 1:12 |
| 25 | Yet you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, house of Israel: Is my way not equal? Aren`t your ways unequal? | Ezk 18:29 Ezk 33:17 Ezk 33:20 Jb 32:2 Jb 34:5-10 Jb 35:2 Jb 40:8 Jb 42:4-6 Mal 2:17 Mal 3:13-15 Mt 20:11-15 Ro 3:5 Ro 3:20 Ro 9:20 Ro 10:3 |
| 26 | When the righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and dies therein; in his iniquity that he has done shall he die. |
| 27 | Again, when the wicked man turns away from his wickedness that he has committed, and does that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive. | Ezk 18:21 Isa 1:18 Isa 55:7 Mt 9:13 Mt 21:28-32 Ac 3:19 Ac 20:21 Ac 26:20 |
| 28 | Because he considers, and turns away from all his transgressions that he has committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die. | Ezk 18:14 Ezk 12:3 Dt 32:29 Ps 119:1 Ps 119:6 Ps 119:59 Jer 31:18-20 Lk 15:17 Lk 15:18 |
| 29 | Yet says the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equal. house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal? | Ezk 18:2 Ezk 18:25 Pr 19:3 |
| 30 | Therefore I will judge you, house of Israel, everyone according to his ways, says the Lord Yahweh. Return you, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. | Ezk 7:3 Ezk 7:8 Ezk 7:9 Ezk 7:27 Ezk 33:20 Ezk 34:20 Ec 3:17 Ec 12:14 1Pe 1:17 Rev 20:12 |
| 31 | Cast away from you all your transgressions, in which you have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will you die, house of Israel? | Ezk 20:7 Ps 34:14 Isa 1:16 Isa 1:17 Isa 30:22 Isa 55:7 Ro 8:13 Eph 4:22-32 Col 3:5-9 Jm 1:21 1Pe 1:14 1Pe 2:1 1Pe 4:2-4 |
| 32 | For I have no pleasure in the death of him who dies, says the Lord Yahweh: why turn yourselves, and live. | Ezk 18:23 Lam 3:33 2Pe 3:9 |
