26:018:016 Neither hath oppressed any, hath not withholden the pledge,
           neither hath spoiled by violence, but hath given his bread to
           the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment,

26:018:017 That hath taken off his hand from the poor, that hath not
           received usury nor increase, hath executed my judgments, hath
           walked in my statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of
           his father, he shall surely live.

26:018:018 As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, spoiled his
           brother by violence, and did that which is not good among his
           people, lo, even he shall die in his iniquity.

26:018:019 Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity of the
           father?  When the son hath done that which is lawful and right,
           and hath kept all my statutes, and hath done them, he shall
           surely live.

26:018:020 The soul that sinneth, it shall die.  The son shall not bear
           the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the
           iniquity of the son:  the righteousness of the righteous shall
           be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon
           him.

26:018:021 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath
           committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is
           lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.

26:018:022 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not
           be mentioned unto him:  in his righteousness that he hath done
           he shall live.

26:018:023 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith
           the Lord god:  and not that he should return from his ways, and
           live?

26:018:024 But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness,
           and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the
           abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live?  All his
           righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned:  in his
           trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath
           sinned, in them shall he die.

26:018:025 Yet ye say, The way of the lord is not equal.  Hear now, O
           house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways
           unequal?

26:018:026 When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and
           committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that
           he hath done shall he die.

26:018:027 Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness
           that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and
           right, he shall save his soul alive.

26:018:028 Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his
           transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live,
           he shall not die.
