Ezekiel 18:24-26

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁴ A righteous person may stop doing things that are good and right. He may start to do the same disgusting things that wicked people do. Then he will not continue to live. I will not remember any of the good things that he did. Instead, I will punish him because of the sins that he has done. He has not been faithful to me, so he will die.

²⁵ But you say, “The Lord is not doing what is right!” So listen to me, Israel's people. It is you who are not doing what is right! It is not me! ²⁶ If a righteous person stops doing good things and he does bad things instead, he will die. Yes, he will die because of the wrong things that he has done.
