Ezekiel 18:23-25
New American Standard Bible
23 (A)Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked,” declares the Lord God, “[a]rather than that he would (B)turn from his ways and live?
24 “But when a righteous person (C)turns away from his righteousness, commits injustice and does according to all the abominations that the wicked person does, will he live? (D)All his righteous deeds which he has done will not be remembered for his (E)treachery which he has committed and his sin which he has committed; for them he will die. 25 Yet you say, ‘(F)The way of the Lord is not right.’ Hear now, house of Israel! Is (G)My way not right? Is it not your ways that are not right?
