Old Testament

New Testament

Ezekiel 18:9-13 English Standard Version (ESV)

9. walks in my statutes, and keeps my rules by acting faithfully—he is righteous; he shall surely live, declares the Lord God.

10. “If he fathers a son who is violent, a shedder of blood, who does any of these things

11. (though he himself did none of these things), who even eats upon the mountains, defiles his neighbor’s wife,

12. oppresses the poor and needy, commits robbery, does not restore the pledge, lifts up his eyes to the idols, commits abomination,

13. lends at interest, and takes profit; shall he then live? He shall not live. He has done all these abominations; he shall surely die; his blood shall be upon himself.
