11 And does none of those duties,
But has eaten [a]on the mountains
Or defiled his neighbor’s wife;
12 If he has oppressed the poor and needy,
Robbed by violence,
Not restored the pledge,
Lifted his eyes to the idols,
Or (A)committed abomination;
13 If he has exacted usury
Or taken increase—
Shall he then live?
He shall not live!
If he has done any of these abominations,
He shall surely die;
(B)His blood shall be upon him.

  1. Ezekiel 18:11 At the mountain shrines

11 (though the father has done none of them):

“He eats at the mountain shrines.(A)
He defiles his neighbor’s wife.
12 He oppresses the poor(B) and needy.
He commits robbery.
He does not return what he took in pledge.(C)
He looks to the idols.
He does detestable things.(D)
13 He lends at interest and takes a profit.(E)

Will such a man live? He will not! Because he has done all these detestable things, he is to be put to death; his blood will be on his own head.(F)
