Contemporary English Version
Ezekiel 18:15-17
Contemporary English Version
15 He doesn't eat meat at local shrines or worship Israel's idols, and he doesn't have sex with someone else's wife. 16 He never cheats or robs anyone and doesn't even demand security for a loan. He gives food and clothes to the poor 17 and refuses to do anything evil[a] or to charge interest. And he obeys all my laws and teachings. Such a man will live. His own father sinned, but this good man will not be put to death for the sins of his father.

16 He does not oppress anyone
or require a pledge for a loan.
He does not commit robbery

He will not die for his father’s sin; he will surely live.
