Ezekiel 18:21-23

New Catholic Bible

²¹ However, if the wicked renounce all of the sins that they have committed and keep all my statutes and do what is right and just, they shall surely live; they shall not die. ²² None of the crimes that they have committed shall be remembered against them; they shall live because of the righteous deeds that they have done ²³ Do I derive any pleasure from the death of the wicked? asks the Lord God. Would I not rather rejoice to see them turn away from their wickedness and live?
