Ezekiel 33:9-11

New American Standard Bible

⁹ But if you on your part warn a wicked person to turn from his way and he ^(A)does not turn from his way, he will die for his wrongdoing, but you have ^(B)saved your life.

¹⁰ “Now as for you, son of man, say to the house of Israel, ‘This is what you have ^[a]said: “Surely our offenses and our sins are upon us, and we are ^(C)rotting away in them; ^(D)how then can we ^[b]survive?”’ ¹¹ Say to them, ‘^(E)As I live!’ declares the Lord ^[c]God, ‘I take ^(F)no pleasure at all in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked ^(G)turn from his way and live. ^(H)Turn back, turn back from your evil ways! Why then should you die, house of Israel?’
