Genesis 18:25

« Gen 17Gen 18Gen 19 »

25 Far be it from You to do ¹such a thing, to put to death the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous and the wicked are treated alike. Far be it from You! Shall not ^athe Judge of all the earth do justice?”

Ezekiel 18:21-25

« Ezek 17Ezek 18Ezek 19 »

21 “But if the ^awicked man turns from all his sins which he has done and keeps all My statutes and does justice and righteousness, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 22 ^aAll his transgressions which he has done will not be remembered against him; because of his ^brighteousness which he has done, he will live. 23 ^aDo I have any pleasure in the death of the wicked,” declares Lord Yahweh, “is it not that he should ^bturn from his ways and live?
24 “But when a righteous man ^aturns away from his righteousness, does injustice, and does according to all the abominations that a wicked man does, will he live? ^bAll his righteous deeds which he has done will not be remembered for his ^cunfaithfulness which he has committed and his sin which he has committed; for them he will die. 25 Yet you say, ‘^aThe way of the Lord is not right.’ Hear now, O house of Israel! Is ^bMy way not right? Is it not your ways that are not right?

Jeremiah 18:7-10

« Jer 17Jer 18Jer 19 »

7 At one moment I might speak concerning a nation or concerning a kingdom to ^auproot, to tear down, or to make it perish; 8 ^abut if that nation against which I have spoken turns from its evil, I will ¹^brelent concerning the calamity I planned to do against it. 9 Or at another moment I might speak concerning a nation or concerning a kingdom to ^abuild up or to plant it; 10 but if it does ^aevil in My sight by not listening to My voice, then I will ¹^brelent concerning the good which I promised, to do good to it.
