if he has not given with usury nor taken any increase, but has withdrawn his hand from iniquity and executed true judgment between man and man;

I was a father to the needy, and I searched out the case that I did not know.

He who oppresses the poor reproaches his Maker, but he who honors Him has mercy upon the needy.

The righteous considers the plea of the poor, but the wicked has no discernment to know it.

A king who judges the lowly in truth, his throne shall be established continually.

He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well with him. Was this not knowledge of Me? says Jehovah.

Therefore, O king, let my advice be acceptable to you: Even break off your sins by righteousness, and your iniquities by showing mercy to the poor; so that perhaps there may be a lengthening of your prosperity.

Then the master of that servant was moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.

So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.

So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved, and came and told their master all that had been done.

Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?

Thus My Heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses.

And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, I give half of my possessions to the poor; and whatever I have taken from anyone by false accusation, I restore fourfold.

if he has not given with usury nor taken any increase, but has withdrawn his hand from iniquity and executed true judgment between man and man;

if he has walked in My statutes and kept My judgments faithfully; he is righteous. He shall live life, says the Lord Jehovah.

if he has exacted usury or taken increase; shall he then live? He shall not live! If he has done any of these abominations, he shall die the death; his blood shall be upon him.

You shall do My judgments and keep My ordinances, to walk in them: I am Jehovah your God.

You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, and shall not do any of these abominations, neither the native nor any stranger who sojourns among you

Therefore you shall keep My charge, so that you do not do any of these abominable customs which were done before you, and that you do not defile yourselves by them: I am Jehovah your God.

Yet you say, Why? Does not the son bear the guilt of the father? When the son has done what is lawful and right, and has kept all My statutes and done them, he shall live life.

The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.

But I said to their children in the wilderness, Do not walk in the statutes of your fathers, nor keep their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols.

Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord Jehovah: Are you defiling yourselves in the manner of your fathers, and committing adultery with their abominations?

Then you shall say to them, Because your fathers have forsaken Me, says Jehovah, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have bowed down to them, and have forsaken Me, and have not kept My Law.

Therefore I will cast you out of this land into a land that you do not know, neither you nor your fathers; and there you shall serve other gods day and night; where I will not grant you favor.

From the days of your fathers, you have turned aside from My statutes and have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you, says Jehovah of Hosts. But you say, In what way shall we return?

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the monuments of the righteous,

Therefore you are witnesses against yourselves that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets.

Serpents! Offspring of vipers! How will you escape the condemnation of Gehenna?

if he has walked in My statutes and kept My judgments faithfully; he is righteous. He shall live life, says the Lord Jehovah.

Yet you say, Why? Does not the son bear the guilt of the father? When the son has done what is lawful and right, and has kept all My statutes and done them, he shall live life.

But if a wicked man turns from all his sins which he has done, keeps all My statutes, and does what is lawful and right, he shall live life; he shall not die.

Because he considers and turns away from all the transgressions which he had done, he shall live life; he shall not die.

Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man that the righteous should not sin, and he does not sin, he shall live life because he took warning; and you have delivered your soul.

When I say to the righteous that he shall live life, but he trusts in his own righteousness and commits iniquity, none of all his righteousness shall be remembered; but because of the iniquity that he has done, he shall die.

if the wicked restores the pledge, gives back what he has stolen, and walks in the statutes of life, not committing iniquity, he shall live life; he shall not die.

None of all his sins which he has sinned shall be remembered against him; he has done justice and righteousness; he shall live life.
