Ezekiel 33:13-15

Contemporary English Version

¹³ Suppose I promise good people that they will live, then later they start sinning and believe they will be saved by the good they did in the past. These people will certainly be put to death because of their sins. Their good deeds will be forgotten.

¹⁴ Suppose I warn wicked people that they will die because of their sins, and they stop sinning and start doing right. ¹⁵ For example, they need to return anything they have taken as security for a loan and anything they have stolen. Then if they stop doing evil and start obeying my Law, they will live.
