13 When I say to the righteous he will surely live, and he so trusts in his righteousness that he commits iniquity, none of his righteous deeds will be remembered; but in that same iniquity of his which he has committed he will die.
14 But when I say to the wicked, 'You will surely die,' and he turns from his sin and practices justice and righteousness,
15 if a wicked man restores a pledge, pays back what he has taken by robbery, walks by the statutes which ensure life without committing iniquity, he shall surely live; he shall not die.
16 None of his sins that he has committed will be remembered against him. He has practiced justice and righteousness; he shall surely live.
17 "Yet your fellow citizens say, 'The way of the Lord is not right,' when it is their own way that is not right.
18 When the righteous turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, then he shall die in it.
19 But when the wicked turns from his wickedness and practices justice and righteousness, he will live by them.
