1: And again cameH1961 the wordH1697 of YahwehH3068 to meH0413 saying,H0559

2: whatH4100 youH0859 when useH4911 -H0853 proverbH4912 thisH2088 concerningH5921 the landH0127 of Israel,H3478 saying,H0559 the fathersH0001 have eatenH0398 sour grapes,H1155 and teethH8127 of the sonsH1121 are set on edge?H6949

3: live,H2416 [As] IH0589 saysH5002 the LordH0136 GOD,H3069 noH0518 you shallH1961 longerH5750 useH4911 proverbH4912 thisH2088 in Israel.H3478

4: Behold,H2005 allH3605 soulsH5315 areH2007 the soulH5315 of the father,H0001 and as well as the soulH5315 of the sonH1121 areH2007 the soulH5315 who sins,H2398 itH1931 shall die.H4191

5: But a manH0376 ifH3588 isH1961 just,H6662 and doesH6213 what is lawfulH4941 and right,H6666

6: onH0413 the mountains,H2022 notH3808 if he has eatenH0398 and his eyesH5869 norH3808 lifted upH5375 toH0413 the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 andH0853 wife,H0802 of his neighborH7453 norH3808 defiledH2930 andH0413 a woman,H0802 during her impurityH5079 norH3808 approached.H7126

7: And anyone,H0376 notH3808 if he has oppressedH3238 his pledge,H2258 to the debtorH2326 [But] has restoredH7725 by violence,H1500 no oneH3808 Has robbedH1497 his breadH3899 to the hungry,H7457 [But] has givenH5414 and the nakedH5903 coveredH3680 with clothing-H0899

8: usury,H5392 notH3808 if he has exactedH5414 and any increase,H8636 norH3808 takenH3947 from iniquity,H5766 [But] has withdrawnH7725 his handH3027 judgmentH4941 TRUEH0571 [And] executedH6213 betweenH0996 manH0376 and man,H0376

9: in My statutes,H2708 [If] he has walkedH1980 and My judgments,H4941 keptH8104 to dealH6213 faithfully-H0571 just,H6662 He [is]H1931 surelyH2421 He shall live,H2421 saysH5002 the LordH0136 GOD.H3069

10: And if he begetsH3205 a sonH1121 [who] [is] a robber,H6530 Or a shedderH8210 of blood,H1818 and [Who] doesH6213 to a brotherH0251 oneH0259 of these [things].H0428

11: And heH1931 -H0853 allH3605 of these [duties]H0428 noneH3808 doesH6213 forH3588 butH1571 onH0413 the mountains,H2022 has eatenH0398 OrH0853 wife,H0802 of his neighborH7453 defiled.H2930

12: The poorH6041 and needy,H0034 if he has oppressedH3238 by violence,H1500 RobbedH1497 the pledge,H2258 NotH3808 restoredH7725 and toH0413 the idols,H1544 LiftedH5375 his eyesH5869 abomination,H8441 [Or] committed.H6213

13: Usury,H5392 if he has exactedH5414 Or increase-H8636 takenH3947 then shall he liveH2425 notH3808 He shall live?H2421 -H0853 anyH3605 of abominations-H8441 theseH0428 if he has doneH6213 surelyH4191 He shall die-H4191 His bloodH1818 shall be.H1961

14: And however,H2009 [If] he begetsH3205 a son,H1121 and who seesH7200 -H0853 allH3605 the sinsH2403 his fatherH0001 whichH0834 has done,H6213 and considers,H7200 but notH3808 does doH6213 likewise.H2004

15: OnH5921 the mountains,H2022 notH3808 [Who] has eatenH0398 and his eyesH5869 norH3808 liftedH5375 toH0413 the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 -H0853 wife,H0802 of his neighborH7453 norH3808 defiled.H2930

16: And anyone,H0376 notH3808 Has oppressedH3238 a pledge,H2258 norH3808 withheldH2254 and by violence,H1500 norH3808 robbedH1497 his breadH3899 to the hungry,H7457 [But] has givenH5414 and the nakedH5903 coveredH3680 with clothing,H0899

17: from the poor,H6041 [Who] has withdrawnH7725 his handH3027 usuryH5392 or increase,H8636 notH3808 [And] receivedH3947 My judgments,H4941 but has executedH6213 in My statutes-H2708 and walkedH1980 HeH1931 notH3808 shall dieH4191 for the iniquityH5771 of his father,H0001 surelyH2421 He shall live.H2421

18: [As] [for] his father,H0001 becauseH3588 he oppressedH6231 cruelly,H6233 RobbedH1497 by violence,H1499 his brotherH0251 and what [is]H0834 notH3808 goodH2896 didH6213 amongH8432 his people,H5971 and behold,H2009 he shall dieH4191 for his iniquity.H5771

19: And yet you sayH0559 why?H4069 notH3808 should bearH5375 the sonH1121 the guiltH5771 of the father?H0001 and because the sonH1121 what is lawfulH4941 and right,H6666 has doneH6213 -H0853 allH3605 My statutes,H2708 and has keptH8104 and observedH6213 themH0853 surelyH2421 he shall live.H2421

20: The soulH5315 who sins,H2398 itH1931 shall die.H4191 The sonH1121 notH3808 shall bearH5375 the guiltH5771 of the father,H0001 and the fatherH0001 norH3808 bearH5375 the guiltH5771 of the son-H1121 the righteousnessH6666 of the righteousH6662 upon himselfH5921 shall beH1961 and the wickednessH7564 the wickedH7563 upon himselfH5921 shall be.H1961

21: But a wicked manH7563 ifH3588 turnsH7725 from allH3605 his sinsH2403 whichH0834 he has committed,H6213 and keepsH8104 -H0853 allH3605 My statutes,H2708 and doesH6213 what is lawfulH4941 and right,H6666 surelyH2421 he shall live,H2421 notH3808 he shall die.H4191

22: OfH3605 the transgressionsH6588 whichH0834 he has committed,H6213 noneH3808 shall be rememberedH2142 because of the righteousnessH6666 whichH0834 he has doneH6213 he shall live.H2421

23: Do any at allH2654 I have pleasureH2654 that should die?H4194 the wickedH7563 saysH5002 the LordH0136 GOD-H3069 notH3808 [and] that he should turnH7725 from his ways,H1870 and live?H2421

24: but when turns awayH7725 a righteous manH6662 from his righteousness,H6666 and commitsH6213 iniquity,H5766 according to allH3605 the abominationsH8441 thatH0834 doesH6213 the wicked [man]H7563 and does,H6213 and shall he liveH2425 allH3605 the righteousnessH6666 whichH0834 he has doneH6213 notH3808 shall be remembered-H2142 because of the unfaithfulness,H4603 of whichH0834 he is guiltyH4604 and the sinH2403 whichH0834 he has committed,H2398 he shall die.H4191

25: And yet you say,H0559 notH3808 is just.H8505 The wayH1870 of the LordH0136 HearH8085 now,H4994 houseH1004 of Israel-H3478 is it My wayH1870 notH3808 which is just?H8505 notH3808 and your waysH1870 notH3808 which are fair?H8505

26: when turns awayH7725 a righteous [man]H6662 from his righteousness,H6666 and commitsH6213 iniquity,H5766 and diesH4191 in itH5921 is because of the iniquityH5766 whichH0834 he has doneH6213 that he dies.H4191

27: And Again when turns awayH7725 a wicked [man]H7563 from the wickednessH7564 whichH0834 he committed,H6213 and doesH6213 what is lawfulH4941 and right,H6666 heH1931 -H0853 himselfH5315 shall preserve alive.H2421

28: And because he considers,H7200 and turns awayH7725 from allH3605 the transgressionsH6588 whichH0834 he committed,H6213 surelyH2421 he shall live,H2421 notH3808 he shall die.H4191

29: And yet saysH0559 the houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 notH3808 is just.H8505 The wayH1870 of the LordH0136 is it My waysH1870 notH3808 which are just?H8505 houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 notH3808 and your waysH1870 notH3808 which are just?H8505

30: thereforeH3651 every oneH0376 according to his ways,H1870 I will judgeH8199 youH0853 houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 saysH5002 the LordH0136 GODH3068 Repent,H7725 and turnH7725 from allH3605 your transgressions-H6588 so that notH3808 will beH1961 your ruinH4383 iniquity.H5771

31: Cast awayH7993 from youH5921 -H0853 allH3605 the transgressions,H6588 whichH0834 have committed-H6586 and getH6213 a heartH3820 newH2319 and a spirit!H7307 newH2319 and for whyH4100 should you die,H4191 houseH1004 of Israel?H3478

32: forH3588 noH3808 I have pleasureH2654 in the deathH4194 of one who dies,H4191 saysH5002 the LordH0136 GOD-H3069 and therefore turnH7725 and live.H2421
