Ezekiel 18:5-9

View Full Chapter

5“Suppose there is a righteous man who does what is just and right.

6He does not eat at the mountain shrines or look to the idols of Israel. He does not defile his neighbor’s wife or have sexual relations with a woman during her period.

7He does not oppress anyone, but returns what he took in pledge for a loan. He does not commit robbery but gives his food to the hungry and provides clothing for the naked.

8He does not lend to them at interest or take a profit from them. He withholds his hand from doing wrong and judges fairly between two parties.

9He follows my decrees and faithfully keeps my laws. That man is righteous; he will surely live, declares the Sovereign LORD .
