1 The word H1697 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-1MS me again , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
2 What H4100 IPRO mean ye , that ye H859 PPRO-2MS use H4911 this H2088 D-PMS proverb H4912 concerning H5921 PREP the land H127 of Israel H3478 , saying H559 L-VQFC , The fathers H1 have eaten H398 sour grapes H1155 , and the children H1121 \'s teeth H8127 W-CMD are set on edge H6949 ?
3 As I H589 PPRO-1MS live H2416 AMS , saith H5002 the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 , ye shall not H518 PART have H1961 VQY3MS occasion any more H5750 ADV to use H4911 this H2088 D-PMS proverb H4912 in Israel H3478 .
4 Behold H2005 IJEC , all H3605 NMS souls H5315 are mine ; as the soul H5315 of the father H1 , so also the soul H5315 of the son H1121 is mine : the soul H5315 D-NFS that sinneth H2398 , it H1931 PPRO-3FS shall die H4191 .
5 But if H3588 CONJ a man H376 W-NMS be H1961 VQY3MS just H6662 AMS , and do H6213 W-VQQ3MS that which is lawful H4941 NMS and right H6666 ,
6 And hath not H3808 NADV eaten H398 upon H413 PREP the mountains H2022 , neither H3808 NADV hath lifted up H5375 VQQ3MS his eyes H5869 W-CFD-3MS to H413 PREP the idols H1544 of the house H1004 CMS of Israel H3478 , neither H3808 NADV hath defiled H2930 his neighbor H7453 NMS-3MS \'s wife H802 CFS , neither H3808 NADV hath come near H7126 to H413 PREP a menstruous H5079 woman H802 NFS ,
7 And hath not H3808 NADV oppressed H3238 any H376 W-NMS , but hath restored H7725 VHY3MS to the debtor H2326 his pledge H2258 , hath spoiled H1497 none H3808 NADV by violence H1500 , hath given H5414 VHFA his bread H3899 CMS-3MS to the hungry H7457 , and hath covered H3680 VPY3MS the naked H5903 with a garment H899 ;
8 He that hath not H3808 ADV given forth H5414 VHFA upon usury H5392 , neither H3808 NADV hath taken H3947 any increase H8636 , that hath withdrawn H7725 VHY3MS his hand H3027 CFS-3MS from iniquity H5766 , hath executed H6213 true H571 CFS judgment H4941 CMS between H996 PREP man H376 NMS and man H376 NMS ,
9 Hath walked H1980 in my statutes H2708 , and hath kept H8104 my judgments H4941 , to deal H6213 L-VQFC truly H571 CFS ; he H1931 PPRO-3MS is just H6662 AMS , he shall surely live H2421 , saith H5002 the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 .
10 If he beget H3205 a son H1121 NMS that is a robber H6530 , a shedder H8210 VQPMS of blood H1818 NMS , and that doeth H6213 W-VQQ3MS the like H251 NMS to any one H259 of these H428 things ,
11 And that H1931 W-PPRO-3MS doeth H6213 VQQ3MS not H3808 NADV any H3605 NMS of those H428 PMP duties , but H3588 CONJ even H1571 CONJ hath eaten H398 VQQ3MS upon H413 PREP the mountains H2022 , and defiled H2930 his neighbor H7453 NMS-3MS \'s wife H802 CFS ,
12 Hath oppressed H3238 the poor H6041 AMS and needy H34 W-AMS , hath spoiled H1497 by violence H1500 , hath not H3808 NADV restored H7725 VHY3MS the pledge H2258 , and hath lifted up H5375 VQQ3MS his eyes H5869 CMD-3MS to H413 W-PREP the idols H1544 , hath committed H6213 VQQ3MS abomination H8441 ,
13 Hath given forth H5414 VQQ3MS upon usury H5392 , and hath taken H3947 VQQ3MS increase H8636 : shall he then live H2421 ? he shall not H3808 NADV live H2421 : he hath done H6213 VQQ3MS all H3605 NMS these H428 D-DPRO-3MP abominations H8441 ; he shall surely die H4191 VQFA ; his blood H1818 shall be H1961 upon him .
14 Now , lo H2009 IJEC , if he beget H3205 VHQ3MS a son H1121 NMS , that seeth H7200 W-VIY3MS all H3605 NMS his father H1 CMS-3MS \'s sins H2403 which H834 RPRO he hath done H6213 VQQ3MS , and considereth H7200 W-VIY3MS , and doeth H6213 VQY3MS not H3808 W-NPAR such like ,
15 That hath not H3808 NADV eaten H398 upon H5921 PREP the mountains H2022 , neither H3808 NADV hath lifted up H5375 VQQ3MS his eyes H5869 W-CFD-3MS to H413 PREP the idols H1544 of the house H1004 CMS of Israel H3478 , hath not H3808 NADV defiled H2930 his neighbor H7453 NMS-3MS \'s wife H802 CFS ,
16 Neither H3808 NADV hath oppressed H3238 any H376 W-NMS , hath not H3808 NADV withheld H2254 the pledge H2258 , neither H3808 NADV hath spoiled H1497 by violence H1500 , but hath given H5414 his bread H3899 CMS-3MS to the hungry H7457 , and hath covered H3680 VPQ3MS the naked H5903 with a garment H899 ,
17 That hath taken off H7725 VHQ3MS his hand H3027 CFS-3MS from the poor H6041 , that hath not H3808 NADV received H3947 VQQ3MS usury H5392 nor increase H8636 , hath executed H6213 VQQ3MS my judgments H4941 , hath walked H1980 in my statutes H2708 ; he H1931 PPRO-3MS shall not H3808 NADV die H4191 VQY3MS for the iniquity H5771 of his father H1 CMS-3MS , he shall surely live H2421 .
18 As for his father H1 CMS-3MS , because H3588 CONJ he cruelly oppressed H6231 , spoiled H1497 VQQ3MS his brother H251 NMS by violence H1499 , and did H6213 VQQ3MS that which H834 W-RPRO is not H3808 NADV good H2896 AMS among H8432 B-NMS his people H5971 , lo H2009 IJEC , even he shall die H4191 in his iniquity H5771 .
19 Yet say H559 ye , Why H4069 ? doth not H3808 NADV the son H1121 bear H5375 VQQ3MS the iniquity H5771 of the father H1 ? When the son H1121 hath done H6213 VQQ3MS that which is lawful H4941 NMS and right H6666 , and hath kept H8104 all H3605 NMS my statutes H2708 , and hath done H6213 them , he shall surely live H2421 .
20 The soul H5315 D-NFS that sinneth H2398 , it H1931 PPRO-3FS shall die H4191 . The son H1121 NMS shall not H3808 NADV bear H5375 VQY3MS the iniquity H5771 of the father H1 , neither H3808 NADV shall the father H1 bear H5375 VQY3MS the iniquity H5771 of the son H1121 : the righteousness H6666 of the righteous H6662 shall be H1961 VQY2MS upon H5921 PREP-3MS him , and the wickedness H7564 of the wicked H7563 shall be H1961 upon H5921 PREP-3MS him .
21 But if H3588 CONJ the wicked H7563 will turn H7725 VQY3MS from all H3605 NMS his sins H2403 that H834 RPRO he hath committed H6213 W-VQQ3MS , and keep H8104 all H3605 NMS my statutes H2708 , and do H6213 W-VQQ3MS that which is lawful H4941 NMS and right H6666 , he shall surely live H2421 , he shall not H3808 NADV die H4191 .
22 All H3605 NMS his transgressions H6588 that H834 RPRO he hath committed H6213 VQQ3MS , they shall not H3808 NADV be mentioned H2142 unto him : in his righteousness H6666 that H834 RPRO he hath done H6213 VQQ3MS he shall live H2421 .
23 Have I any pleasure at all H2654 that the wicked H7563 AMS should die H4194 ? saith H5002 the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 : and not H3808 D-NPAR that he should return H7725 from his ways H1870 , and live H2421 ?
24 But when the righteous H6662 AMS turneth away H7725 from his righteousness H6666 , and committeth H6213 W-VQQ3MS iniquity H5766 NMS , and doeth H6213 W-VQQ3MS according to all H3605 NMS the abominations H8441 that H834 RPRO the wicked H7563 man doeth H6213 W-VQQ3MS , shall he live H2421 ? All H3605 NMS his righteousness H6666 that H834 RPRO he hath done H6213 W-VQQ3MS shall not H3808 NADV be mentioned H2142 : in his trespass H4604 that H834 RPRO he hath trespassed H4603 , and in his sin H2403 that H834 RPRO he hath sinned H2398 VQQ3MS , in them shall he die H4191 .
25 Yet ye say H559 , The way H1870 NMS of the Lord H136 EDS is not equal H8505 . Hear H8085 VQI2MP now H4994 IJEC , O house H1004 CMS of Israel H3478 ; Is not H3808 NADV my way H1870 NMS equal H8505 ? are not H3808 NADV your ways H1870 NMS unequal H8505 ?
26 When a righteous H6662 AMS man turneth away H7725 from his righteousness H6666 , and committeth H6213 W-VQQ3MS iniquity H5766 NMS , and dieth H4191 in H5921 PREP-3MP them ; for his iniquity H5766 that H834 RPRO he hath done H6213 W-VQQ3MS shall he die H4191 .
27 Again , when the wicked H7563 AMS man turneth away H7725 from his wickedness H7564 that H834 RPRO he hath committed H6213 W-VQY3MS , and doeth H6213 W-VQY3MS that which is lawful H4941 NMS and right H6666 , he H1931 PPRO-3MS shall save his soul alive H2421 .
28 Because he considereth H7200 , and turneth away H7725 from all H3605 M-CMS his transgressions H6588 that H834 RPRO he hath committed H6213 VQQ3MS , he shall surely live H2421 , he shall not H3808 NADV die H4191 .
29 Yet saith H559 the house H1004 CMS of Israel H3478 , The way H1870 NMS of the Lord H136 EDS is not equal H8505 . O house H1004 CMS of Israel H3478 , are not H3808 NADV my ways H1870 NMS equal H8505 ? are not H3808 NADV your ways H1870 NMS unequal H8505 ?
30 Therefore H3651 L-ADV I will judge H8199 you , O house H1004 CMS of Israel H3478 , every one H376 NMS according to his ways H1870 , saith H5002 the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 . Repent H7725 , and turn H7725 yourselves from all H3605 M-CMS your transgressions H6588 ; so iniquity H5771 shall not H3808 W-NPAR be H1961 VQY3MS your ruin H4383 .
31 Cast away H7993 from you all H3605 NMS your transgressions H6588 , whereby H834 RPRO ye have transgressed H6586 ; and make H6213 you a new H2319 heart H3820 NMS and a new H2319 spirit H7307 W-GFS : for why H4100 WL-IGAT will ye die H4191 , O house H1004 CMS of Israel H3478 LMS ?
32 For H3588 CONJ I have no pleasure H2654 in the death H4194 of him that dieth H4191 , saith H5002 the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 : wherefore turn H7725 yourselves , and live H2421 ye .
