13 When I say to the righteous, ‘Certainly he will live,’ and he trusted in his righteousness, and he turns and he does injustice, all of his righteousness will not be remembered, and because of his injustice that he did, because of it he will die.
14 And when I say to the wicked, ‘Certainly you will die,’ but he returns from his sin and he does justice and righteousness—
15 for example, the wicked returns a pledge for a loan, he restores stolen property, he goes in the statutes of life so as not to do injustice—certainly he will live; he will not die.
16 All of his sins that he committed, they will not be remembered against him, and he did justice and righteousness; certainly he will live.
17 “Yet your people say, ‘The way of the Lord is not fair!’ yet their way is not fair.
18 When the righteous turns from his righteousness and does injustice, then he will die because of it.
19 And when the wicked turns from his wickedness, and he does justice and righteousness, because of it he will certainly live!
