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}

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?

Then hearH8085 thou from heavenH8064, and doH6213, and judgeH8199 thy servantsH5650, by requitingH7725 the wickedH7563, by recompensingH5414 his wayH1870 upon his own headH7218; and by justifyingH6663 the righteousH6662, by givingH5414 him according to his righteousnessH6666.
None of his sinsH2403 that he hath committedH2398 shall be mentionedH2142 unto him: he hath doneH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666; he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421.
The LORDH3068 rewardedH1580 me according to my righteousnessH6664; according to the cleannessH1252 of my handsH3027 hath he recompensedH7725 me.
For I have keptH8104 the waysH1870 of the LORDH3068, and have not wickedly departedH7561 from my GodH430.
For all his judgmentsH4941 were before me, and I did not put awayH5493 his statutesH2708 from me.
I was also uprightH8549 before him, and I keptH8104 myself from mine iniquityH5771. {before: Heb. with}
Therefore hath the LORDH3068 recompensedH7725 me according to my righteousnessH6664, according to the cleannessH1252 of my handsH3027 in his eyesightH5869. {in…: Heb. before his eyes}
And she saidH559 unto ElijahH452, What have I to do with thee, O thou manH376 of GodH430? art thou comeH935 unto me to callH2142 my sinH5771 to remembranceH2142, and to slayH4191 my sonH1121?
Moreover by them is thy servantH5650 warnedH2094: and in keepingH8104 of them there is greatH7227 rewardH6118.
RememberH2142 not the sinsH2403 of my youthH5271, nor my transgressionsH6588: according to thy mercyH2617 rememberH2142 thou me for thy goodness'H2898 sake, O LORDH3068.
A Psalm of DavidH1732, MaschilH4905. BlessedH835 is he whose transgressionH6588 is forgivenH5375, whose sinH2401 is coveredH3680. {A Psalm…: or, A Psalm of David giving instruction}
To them who byG3303+G2596 patient continuanceG5281 in wellG18 doingG2041 seekG2212 for gloryG1391 andG2532 honourG5092 andG2532 immortalityG861, eternalG166 lifeG2222:
BlessedH835 is the manH120 unto whom the LORDH3068 imputethH2803 not iniquityH5771, and in whose spiritH7307 there is no guileH7423.
BeG4105 notG3361 deceivedG4105; GodG2316 isG3456 notG3756 mockedG3456: forG1063 whatsoeverG3739+G1437 a manG444 sowethG4687, thatG5124 shall heG2325 alsoG2532 reapG2325.
To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732, when NathanH5416 the prophetH5030 cameH935 unto him, after he had gone inH935 to BathshebaH1339. Have mercyH2603 upon me, O GodH430, according to thy lovingkindnessH2617: according unto the multitudeH7230 of thy tender merciesH7356 blot outH4229 my transgressionsH6588.
ForG3754 he that sowethG4687 toG1519 hisG1438 fleshG4561 shallG2325 ofG1537 the fleshG4561 reapG2325 corruptionG5356; butG1161 he that sowethG4687 toG1519 the SpiritG4151 shallG2325 ofG1537 the SpiritG4151 reapG2325 lifeG2222 everlastingG166.
As far asH7368 the eastH4217 is from the westH4628, so far hath he removedH7368 our transgressionsH6588 from us.
WasG1344 notG3756 AbrahamG11 ourG2257 fatherG3962 justifiedG1344 byG1537 worksG2041, when he had offeredG399 IsaacG2464 hisG846 sonG5207 uponG1909 the altarG2379?
Seest thouG991 howG3754 faithG4102 wroughtG4903 with hisG846 worksG2041, andG2532 byG1537 worksG2041 wasG5048 faithG4102 made perfectG5048? {Seest…: or, Thou seest}
AndG2532 the scriptureG1124 was fulfilledG4137 which saithG3004+G1161, AbrahamG11 believedG4100 GodG2316, andG2532 it was imputedG3049 unto himG846 forG1519 righteousnessG1343: andG2532 he was calledG2564 the FriendG5384 of GodG2316.
Ye seeG3708 thenG5106 how thatG3754 byG1537 worksG2041 a manG444 is justifiedG1344, andG2532 notG3756 byG1537 faithG4102 onlyG3440.
LikewiseG3668+G1161 alsoG2532 wasG1344 notG3756 RahabG4460 the harlotG4204 justifiedG1344 byG1537 worksG2041, when she had receivedG5264 the messengersG32, andG2532 had sent them outG1544 anotherG2087 wayG3598?
ForG1063 asG5618 the bodyG4983 withoutG5565 the spiritG4151 isG2076 deadG3498, soG3779 faithG4102 withoutG5565 worksG2041 isG2076 deadG3498 alsoG2532. {spirit: or, breath}
I, even I, am he that blotteth outH4229 thy transgressionsH6588 for mine own sake, and will not rememberH2142 thy sinsH2403.
AndG2532+G1161 besideG846 thisG5124, givingG3923 allG3956 diligenceG4710, addG2023 toG1722 yourG5216 faithG4102 virtueG703; andG1161 toG1722 virtueG703 knowledgeG1108;
AndG1161 toG1722 knowledgeG1108 temperanceG1466; andG1161 toG1722 temperanceG1466 patienceG5281; andG1161 toG1722 patienceG5281 godlinessG2150;
AndG1161 toG1722 godlinessG2150 brotherly kindnessG5360; andG1161 toG1722 brotherly kindnessG5360 charityG26.
ForG1063 if these thingsG5023 beG5225 in youG5213, andG2532 aboundG4121, they makeG2525 you that ye shall neitherG3756 be barrenG692 norG3761 unfruitfulG175 inG1519 the knowledgeG1922 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. {barren: Gr. idle}
ButG1063 he thatG3739 lackethG3361+G3918 these thingsG5023 isG2076 blindG5185, and cannot see afar offG3467, and hath forgottenG3024+G2983 that he was purged fromG2512 hisG846 oldG3819 sinsG266.
WhereforeG1352 the ratherG3123, brethrenG80, give diligenceG4704 to makeG4160 yourG5216 callingG2821 andG2532 electionG1589 sureG949: forG1063 if ye doG4160 these thingsG5023, ye shallG4218+G4417 neverG3364 fallG4218+G4417:
ForG1063 soG3779 an entranceG1529 shall be ministeredG2023 unto youG5213 abundantlyG4146 intoG1519 the everlastingG166 kingdomG932 of ourG2257 LordG2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
And they shall teachH3925 no more every manH376 his neighbourH7453, and every manH376 his brotherH251, sayingH559, KnowH3045 the LORDH3068: for they shall all knowH3045 me, from the leastH6996 of them unto the greatestH1419 of them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: for I will forgiveH5545 their iniquityH5771, and I will rememberH2142 their sinH2403 no more.
Little childrenG5040, letG4105 no manG3367 deceiveG4105 youG5209: he that doethG4160 righteousnessG1343 isG2076 righteousG1342, even asG2531 heG1565 isG2076 righteousG1342.
In those daysH3117, and in that timeH6256, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, the iniquityH5771 of IsraelH3478 shall be sought forH1245, and there shall be none; and the sinsH2403 of JudahH3063, and they shall not be foundH4672: for I will pardonH5545 them whom I reserveH7604.
He will turn againH7725, he will have compassionH7355 upon us; he will subdueH3533 our iniquitiesH5771; and thou wilt castH7993 all their sinsH2403 into the depthsH4688 of the seaH3220.
There is thereforeG686 nowG3568 noG3762 condemnationG2631 to them which are inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, who walkG4043 notG3361 afterG2596 the fleshG4561, butG235 afterG2596 the SpiritG4151.
ForG3754 I will beG2071 mercifulG2436 to theirG846 unrighteousnessG93, andG2532 theirG846 sinsG266 andG2532 theirG846 iniquitiesG458 will I rememberG3415 noG3364 moreG2089.
