Ezekiel 18:20-24
20 The person who sins is the one who will die.(A) A son won’t suffer punishment for the father’s iniquity, and a father won’t suffer punishment for the son’s iniquity.(B) The righteousness of the righteous person will be on him,(C) and the wickedness of the wicked person will be on him.(D)
21 “Now if the wicked person turns from all the sins he has committed,(E) keeps all My statutes, and does what is just and right, he will certainly live; he will not die.
22 None of the transgressions he has committed will be held against him.(F) He will live because of the righteousness he has practiced.(G)
23 Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked?”(H) This is the declaration of the Lord God. “Instead, don’t I take pleasure when he turns from his ways and lives?
24 But when a righteous person turns from his righteousness(I) and practices iniquity, committing the same detestable acts that the wicked do, will he live? None of the righteous acts he did will be remembered.(J) He will die because of the treachery he has engaged in and the sin he has committed.
