The verses these writers stop at
- 18:20 The person who sins is the one who will die. A child will not share the guilt of a parent, and a parent will not share the guilt of a child. The righteousness of the righteous will be their own, and the wickedness of the wicked will be their own. 6
- 18:23 Is it any pleasure to me when the wicked die? declares the Lord GOD. Would I not rather that they turn from their ways and live? 5
- 18:31 Throw away all the rebellious acts you have committed, and make for yourselves a new heart and a new spirit. Why would you die, house of Israel? 5
- 18:32 The death of anyone gives me no pleasure, declares the Lord GOD. So turn back and live! 3
- 18:4 Every life belongs to me, the life of the parent as well as the life of the child; both belong to me. The person who sins is the one who will die. 2
- 18:21 But if wicked people turn away from all the sins they have committed, keep all my statutes and do what is just and right, they will surely live; they will not die. 2
- 18:24 But if righteous people turn away from their righteousness and do wrong, committing all the same detestable things that the wicked do, will they live? None of the righteous things they have done will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness they are guilty of and the sins they have committed, they will die. 2
- 18:30 Therefore, house of Israel, I will judge each of you according to your ways, declares the Lord GOD. Repent and turn away from all your rebellious acts, so that your guilt will not bring you down. 2
- 18:3 As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, this proverb will no longer be quoted in Israel. 1
- 18:9 and who follows my statutes and keeps my rulings faithfully. That man is righteous; he will surely live, declares the Lord GOD. 1
- 18:27 And if wicked people turn away from the wickedness they have committed and do what is just and right, they will save their lives. 1
