Yechezkel 33:14-18 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

14. Again, when I say unto the rashah, Thou shalt surely die and he turn from his chattat, and do that which is mishpat and tzedakah;

15. If the rashah give back the chavol (borrower's pledge), give back what he has stolen, walk in the chukkot hachayyim, without committing evil; he shall surely live, he shall not die.

16. None of his chattot that he hath committed shall be remembered against him; he hath done that which is mishpat and tzedakah; he shall surely live.

17. Yet the Bnei Amecha say, The Derech Adonoi is not proper; but as for them, their derech is not proper.

18. When the tzaddik turneth from his tzedakah, and committeth evil, he shall even die thereby.
