Ezekiel 18:22-24
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
22 None of the crimes he has committed shall be remembered against him; he shall live because of the justice he has shown. 23 (A)Do I find pleasure in the death of the wicked—oracle of the Lord God? Do I not rejoice when they turn from their evil way and live?
24 And if the just turn from justice and do evil, like all the abominations the wicked do, can they do this evil and still live? None of the justice they did shall be remembered, because they acted treacherously and committed these sins; because of this, they shall die.(B)
