Contextual Overview
10 And you, son of man, say to the house of Israel, This you have spoken, saying, Surely our transgressions and our sins are on us, and we are rotting in them, even then shall we live? 11 Say to them, As I live, declares the Lord Jehovah, I do not have delight in the death of the wicked, except in the wicked turning from his way, and so to live. Turn! Turn from yourevil ways! For why will you die, O house ofIsrael? 12 And you, son of man, say to the sons of your people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his trespass. And the evil of the evil, in the day he turns from his wickedness, he shall not fall by it. And therighteous shall not be able to live by it in the day he sins. 13 Though I say to the righteous, Living he shall live, yet he trusts in his own righteousness and commits iniquity, all his righteousness shall not be remembered; but he shall die for his iniquity which he has done. 14 And though I say to the wicked, Dying you shall die; if he turns from his sin and does justice and righteousness, 15 if the wicked returns the pledge, he repays the thing stolen, he walks in the statutes of life, not doing iniquity, living he shall live; he shall not die. 16 All his sins which he has sinned shall not be remembered to him; he has done justice and righteousness, living he shall live. 17 Yet the sons of your people say, The way of the Lord is not fair. But they, even their way is not fair. 18 When the righteous turns from his righteousness and does iniquity, he shall even die by them. 19 But if the wicked turns from his wickedness, and does justice and righteousness, he shall live by them.
