Biblia Brzeska (1563)
Człowiek który by kolwiek zgrzeszył on sam umrze. Syn nie poniesie złości ojcowskiej, ani ociec poniesie złości syna swego, sprawiedliwość sprawiedliwego zostanie przy nim, a złość niepobożnego zostanie nad nim.
Biblia Gdańska (1632)
Dusza, która grzeszy, ta umrze; ale syn nie poniesie nieprawości ojcowskiej, ani ojciec poniesie nieprawości synowskiej; sprawiedliwość sprawiedliwego przy nim zostanie, a niepobożność niepobożnego nań przypadnie.
Nowe Przymierze Zaremba
Człowiek, który grzeszy, umrze. Syn nie poniesie kary za winę ojca, a ojciec kary za winę syna. Sprawiedliwość posłuży sprawiedliwemu, a bezbożność spadnie na bezbożnego.
Nowa Biblia Gdańska (2012)
A dusza, która zgrzeszy – ta zginie. Syn nie poniesie winy ojca, gdyż będzie na nim sprawiedliwość sprawiedliwego; zaś niegodziwość będzie na niegodziwym!
Biblia Tysiąclecia
Dusza, która grzeszy, ta umrze; ale syn nie poniesie nieprawości ojcowskiej, ani ojciec poniesie nieprawości synowskiej; sprawiedliwość sprawiedliwego przy nim zostanie, a niepobożność niepobożnego nań przypadnie.
Uwspółcześniona Biblia Gdańska
Dusza, która grzeszy, umrze. Syn nie poniesie kary za nieprawość ojca ani ojciec nie poniesie kary za nieprawość syna. Sprawiedliwość sprawiedliwego pozostanie na nim, a niegodziwość niegodziwego pozostanie na nim.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The soul that sinneth, it shall die,.... This is repeated from Ezekiel 18:4, for the further confirmation of it:

the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son; that is, as the Targum paraphrases it,

"the son shall not be punished for the sins of the father, nor shall the father be punished for the sins of the son.''

This is to be understood of adult persons, and of actual sins; for of such only the prophet speaks throughout the whole chapter, or of temporal, and not of eternal punishment:

the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him; he shall be rewarded with temporal good things in this life, according to his righteousness; which, as the Targum says, shall "remain" upon him; see

Psalms 112:9; he shall eat of the fruit of his own doings, Isaiah 3:10; this is true of a man that is evangelically righteous, or is so through the imputation of Christ's righteousness to him; which is upon him as a robe to clothe him, and will always remain on him, being an everlasting righteousness, and will answer for him in a time to come:

and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him; and not another; his sin shall remain on him unatoned for, unexpiated, not taken away or forgiven; the punishment of it shall be on him, and abide upon him.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 18:20. The soul that sinneth, it shall die. — Hitherto we have had to do with the simple cases of the righteous and the wicked; of him who lived and died a holy man, and of him who lived and died a wicked man. But there are two cases behind:

1. That of the wicked man, who repents and turns to God.

2. That of the righteous man, who backslides, and does not return to God by repentance. On both these cases God decides thus:-
