Ezekiel 14:18-20

Good News Translation

¹⁸ and even if those three men lived there—as surely as I, the Sovereign Lord, am the living God—they would not be able to save even their children, but only their own lives.

¹⁹ “If I send an epidemic on that country and in my anger take many lives, killing people and animals, ²⁰ even if Noah, Danel, and Job lived there—as surely as I, the Sovereign Lord, am the living God—they would not be able to save even their own children. Their goodness would save only their own lives.”
