Ezekiel 18:4-6

Contemporary English Version

⁴ The lives of all people belong to me—parents as well as children. However, only those who sin will be put to death.

⁵ Suppose there is a truly good man who always does what is fair and right. ⁶ He refuses to eat meat sacrificed to foreign gods at local shrines or to worship Israel's idols. He doesn't have sex with someone else's wife or with a woman having her monthly period.
