The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me again, sayingH559,
What mean ye, that ye useH4911 this proverbH4912 concerning the landH127 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, The fathersH1 have eatenH398 sour grapesH1155, and the children'sH1121 teethH8127 are set on edgeH6949?
As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, ye shall not have occasion any more to useH4911 this proverbH4912 in IsraelH3478.
Behold, all soulsH5315 are mine; as the soulH5315 of the fatherH1, so also the soulH5315 of the sonH1121 is mine: the soulH5315 that sinnethH2398, it shall dieH4191.
But if a manH376 be justH6662, and doH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666, {that…: Heb. judgment and justice}
And hath not eatenH398 upon the mountainsH2022, neither hath lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869 to the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, neither hath defiledH2930 his neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802, neither hath come nearH7126 to a menstruousH5079 womanH802,
And hath not oppressedH3238 anyH376, but hath restoredH7725 to the debtorH2326 his pledgeH2258, hath spoiledH1497 none by violenceH1500, hath givenH5414 his breadH3899 to the hungryH7457, and hath coveredH3680 the nakedH5903 with a garmentH899;
He that hath not given forthH5414 upon usuryH5392, neither hath takenH3947 any increaseH8636, that hath withdrawnH7725 his handH3027 from iniquityH5766, hath executedH6213 trueH571 judgmentH4941 between manH376 and manH376,
Hath walkedH1980 in my statutesH2708, and hath keptH8104 my judgmentsH4941, to dealH6213 trulyH571; he is justH6662, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
If he begetH3205 a sonH1121 that is a robberH6530, a shedderH8210 of bloodH1818, and that doethH6213 the likeH251 to any oneH259 of these things, {robber: or, breaker up of an house} {that doeth…: or, that doeth to his brother besides any of these}
And that doethH6213 not any of those duties, but even hath eatenH398 upon the mountainsH2022, and defiledH2930 his neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802,
Hath oppressedH3238 the poorH6041 and needyH34, hath spoiledH1497 by violenceH1500, hath not restoredH7725 the pledgeH2258, and hath lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869 to the idolsH1544, hath committedH6213 abominationH8441,
Hath given forthH5414 upon usuryH5392, and hath takenH3947 increaseH8636: shall he then liveH2425? he shall not liveH2421: he hath doneH6213 all these abominationsH8441; he shall surelyH4191 dieH4191; his bloodH1818 shall be upon him. {blood: Heb. bloods}
Now, lo, if he begetH3205 a sonH1121, that seethH7200 all his father'sH1 sinsH2403 which he hath doneH6213, and considerethH7200, and doethH6213 not such likeH2004,
That hath not eatenH398 upon the mountainsH2022, neither hath lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869 to the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, hath not defiledH2930 his neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802,
Neither hath oppressedH3238 anyH376, hath not withholdenH2254 the pledgeH2258, neither hath spoiledH1497 by violenceH1500, but hath givenH5414 his breadH3899 to the hungryH7457, and hath coveredH3680 the nakedH5903 with a garmentH899, {hath not…: Heb. hath not pledged the pledge, or, taken to pledge}
That hath taken offH7725 his handH3027 from the poorH6041, that hath not receivedH3947 usuryH5392 nor increaseH8636, hath executedH6213 my judgmentsH4941, hath walkedH1980 in my statutesH2708; he shall not dieH4191 for the iniquityH5771 of his fatherH1, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421.
As for his fatherH1, because he cruellyH6233 oppressedH6231, spoiledH1497 his brotherH251 by violenceH1499, and didH6213 that which is not goodH2896 amongH8432 his peopleH5971, lo, even he shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771.
Yet sayH559 ye, Why? doth not the sonH1121 bearH5375 the iniquityH5771 of the fatherH1? When the sonH1121 hath doneH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666, and hath keptH8104 all my statutesH2708, and hath doneH6213 them, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421.
The soulH5315 that sinnethH2398, it shall dieH4191. The sonH1121 shall not bearH5375 the iniquityH5771 of the fatherH1, neither shall the fatherH1 bearH5375 the iniquityH5771 of the sonH1121: the righteousnessH6666 of the righteousH6662 shall be upon him, and the wickednessH7564 of the wickedH7563 shall be upon him.
But if the wickedH7563 will turnH7725 from all his sinsH2403 that he hath committedH6213, and keepH8104 all my statutesH2708, and doH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421, he shall not dieH4191.
All his transgressionsH6588 that he hath committedH6213, they shall not be mentionedH2142 unto him: in his righteousnessH6666 that he hath doneH6213 he shall liveH2421.
Have I any pleasureH2654 at allH2654 that the wickedH7563 should dieH4194? saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069: and not that he should returnH7725 from his waysH1870, and liveH2421?
But when the righteousH6662 turneth awayH7725 from his righteousnessH6666, and committethH6213 iniquityH5766, and doethH6213 according to all the abominationsH8441 that the wickedH7563 man doethH6213, shall he liveH2425? All his righteousnessH6666 that he hath doneH6213 shall not be mentionedH2142: in his trespassH4603 that he hath trespassedH4604, and in his sinH2403 that he hath sinnedH2398, in them shall he dieH4191.
Yet ye sayH559, The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is not equalH8505. HearH8085 now, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; Is not my wayH1870 equalH8505? are not your waysH1870 unequalH8505?
When a righteousH6662 man turneth awayH7725 from his righteousnessH6666, and committethH6213 iniquityH5766, and diethH4191 in them; for his iniquityH5766 that he hath doneH6213 shall he dieH4191.
Again, when the wickedH7563 man turneth awayH7725 from his wickednessH7564 that he hath committedH6213, and doethH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666, he shall saveH2421 his soulH5315 aliveH2421.
Because he considerethH7200, and turneth awayH7725 from all his transgressionsH6588 that he hath committedH6213, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421, he shall not dieH4191.
Yet saithH559 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is not equalH8505. O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, are not my waysH1870 equalH8505? are not your waysH1870 unequalH8505?
Therefore I will judgeH8199 you, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, every oneH376 according to his waysH1870, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. RepentH7725, and turnH7725 yourselves from all your transgressionsH6588; so iniquityH5771 shall not be your ruinH4383. {yourselves: or, others}
Cast awayH7993 from you all your transgressionsH6588, whereby ye have transgressedH6586; and makeH6213 you a newH2319 heartH3820 and a newH2319 spiritH7307: for why will ye dieH4191, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478?
For I have no pleasureH2654 in the deathH4194 of him that diethH4191, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069: wherefore turnH7725 yourselves, and liveH2421 ye. {yourselves: or, others}

He saidH559 furthermore unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, seestH7200 thou what they doH6213? even the greatH1419 abominationsH8441 that the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 committethH6213 here, that I should go far offH7368 from my sanctuaryH4720? but turnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441.
He is a merchantH3667, the balancesH3976 of deceitH4820 are in his handH3027: he lovethH157 to oppressH6231. {a merchant: or, Canaan} {oppress: or, deceive}
Then he saidH559 unto me, Hast thou seenH7200 this, O sonH1121 of manH120? Is it a light thingH7043 to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 that they commitH6213 the abominationsH8441 which they commitH6213 here? for they have filledH4390 the landH776 with violenceH2555, and have returnedH7725 to provoke me to angerH3707: and, lo, they putH7971 the branchH2156 to their noseH639. {Is it…: or, Is there any thing lighter than to commit}
HearH8085 this wordH1697, ye kineH6510 of BashanH1316, that are in the mountainH2022 of SamariaH8111, which oppressH6231 the poorH1800, which crushH7533 the needyH34, which sayH559 to their mastersH113, BringH935, and let us drinkH8354.
And oppressH6231 not the widowH490, nor the fatherlessH3490, the strangerH1616, nor the poorH6041; and let none of you imagineH2803 evilH7451 againstH376 his brotherH251 in your heartH3824.
Ye shall therefore keepH8104 my statutesH2708 and my judgmentsH4941, and shall not commitH6213 any of these abominationsH8441; neither any of your own nationH249, nor any strangerH1616 that sojournethH1481 amongH8432 you:
(For all theseH411 abominationsH8441 have the menH582 of the landH776 doneH6213, which were beforeH6440 you, and the landH776 is defiledH2930;)
That the landH776 spue not you outH6958 also, when ye defileH2930 it, as it spued outH6958 the nationsH1471 that were beforeH6440 you.
For whosoever shall commitH6213 any of these abominationsH8441, even the soulsH5315 that commitH6213 them shall be cut offH3772 from amongH7130 their peopleH5971.
Therefore shall ye keepH8104 mine ordinanceH4931, that ye commitH6213 not any one of these abominableH8441 customsH2708, which were committedH6213 beforeH6440 you, and that ye defileH2930 not yourselves therein: I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
ButG1161 yeG5210 have despisedG818 the poorG4434. DoG2616 notG3756 rich menG4145 oppressG2616 youG5216, andG2532 drawG846+G1670 youG5209 beforeG1519 the judgment seatsG2922?
Because ManassehH4519 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 hath doneH6213 these abominationsH8441, and hath done wickedlyH7489 above all that the AmoritesH567 didH6213, which were beforeH6440 him, and hath made JudahH3063 also to sinH2398 with his idolsH1544:
And the high placesH1116 that were beforeH6440 JerusalemH3389, which were on the right handH3225 of the mountH2022 of corruptionH4889, which SolomonH8010 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 had buildedH1129 for AshtorethH6253 the abominationH8251 of the ZidoniansH6722, and for ChemoshH3645 the abominationH8251 of the MoabitesH4124, and for MilcomH4445 the abominationH8441 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, did the kingH4428 defileH2930. {the mount…: that is, the mount of Olives}
