- But if a wicked person turns away from all the sins they have committed and keeps all my decrees and does what is just and right, that person will surely live; they will not die.
- Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign Lord. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?
- Repent! Turn away from all your offenses; then sin will not be your downfall.
- For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent and live!
But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken.
