Ezekiel 18:24-26
Lexham English Bible
24 And when the righteous turns[a] from his righteousness, so that[b] he does injustice, and does all of the detestable things that the wicked do, then[c] will he live because of all of his righteousness[d] that he did? Those things will not be remembered because of his infidelity that he displayed, and because of his sin that he committed.[e] Through[f] them he shall die.
25 “Yet[g] you say, ‘The way of the Lord is not fair!’ Listen, now, house of Israel, is my way not fair? Is it not your ways that are not fair? 26 When the righteous turns from his righteousness, and he does injustice, then[h] he will die because of them; because of his injustice that he did he will die!
