²⁵ “But you say, ‘·What the Lord does [^LThe way of the Lord] isn’t ·fair [just].’ Listen, ·people [^Lhouse] of Israel. ·I am fair [^LIs my way unjust?]. It is what you do that is not ·fair [just]! ²⁶ When ·good people [the righteous] ·stop [turn from] doing good and do wrong, they will die because of it. They will die, because they did wrong. ²⁷ When the wicked ·stop being wicked [turn from wickedness] and do what is ·fair [just] and right, they will save their ·lives [souls].
