13 Even though I say to the just that they shall surely live, if they, relying on their justice, do wrong, none of their just deeds shall be remembered; because of the wrong they have done, they shall die.
14 And though I say to the wicked that they shall die, if they turn away from sin and do what is just and right—
15 returning pledges, restoring stolen goods, walking by statutes that bring life, doing nothing wrong—they shall surely live; they shall not die.
16 None of the sins they committed shall be remembered against them. If they do what is right and just, they shall surely live.
17 Your people say, “The way of the Lord is not fair!” But it is their way that is not fair.
18 When the just turn away from justice and do wrong, they shall die for it.
19 When the wicked turn away from wickedness and do what is right and just, because of this they shall live.
