절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	Those Who Sin Will Die The Lord said:	The word of the Lord came unto me again, saying,
2	Ezekiel, I hear the people of Israel using the old saying, “Sour grapes eaten by parents leave a sour taste in the mouths of their children.”	What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge?
3	Now tell them that I am the Lord God, and as surely as I live, that saying will no longer be used in Israel.	As I live, saith the Lord God, ye shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel.
4	The lives of all people belong to me—parents as well as children. However, only those who sin will be put to death.	Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
5	Suppose there is a truly good man who always does what is fair and right.	But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,
6	He refuses to eat meat sacrificed to foreign gods at local shrines or to worship Israel's idols. He doesn't have sex with someone else's wife or with a woman having her monthly period.	And hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled his neighbour’s wife, neither hath come near to a menstruous woman,
7	He never cheats or robs anyone and always returns anything taken as security for a loan; he gives food and clothes to the poor	And hath not oppressed any, but hath restored to the debtor his pledge, hath spoiled none by violence, hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment;
8	and doesn't charge interest when lending money. He refuses to do anything evil; he is fair to everyone	He that hath not given forth upon usury, neither hath taken any increase, that hath withdrawn his hand from iniquity, hath executed true judgment between man and man,
9	and faithfully obeys my laws and teachings. This man is good, and I promise he will live.	Hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept my judgments, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord God.
10	But suppose this good man has an evil son who is violent and commits sins	If he beget a son that is a robber, a shedder of blood, and that doeth the like to any one of these things,
11	his father never did. He eats meat at local shrines, has sex with someone else's wife,	And that doeth not any of those duties, but even hath eaten upon the mountains, and defiled his neighbour’s wife,
12	cheats the poor, and robs people. He keeps what is given to him as security for a loan. He worships idols, does disgusting things,	Hath oppressed the poor and needy, hath spoiled by violence, hath not restored the pledge, and hath lifted up his eyes to the idols, hath committed abomination,
13	and charges high interest when lending money. An evil man like that will certainly not live. He is the one who has done these horrible sins, so it's his own fault that he will be put to death.	Hath given forth upon usury, and hath taken increase: shall he then live? he shall not live: he hath done all these abominations; he shall surely die; his blood shall be upon him.
14	But suppose this evil man has a son who sees his father do these things and refuses to act like him.	Now, lo, if he beget a son, that seeth all his father’s sins which he hath done, and considereth, and doeth not such like,
15	He doesn't eat meat at local shrines or worship Israel's idols, and he doesn't have sex with someone else's wife.	That hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hath not defiled his neighbour’s wife,
16	He never cheats or robs anyone and doesn't even demand security for a loan. He gives food and clothes to the poor	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,
17	and refuses to do anything evil or to charge interest. And he obeys all my laws and teachings. Such a man will live. His own father sinned, but this good man will not be put to death for the sins of his father.	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.
18	It is his father who will die for cheating and robbing and doing evil.	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.
19	You may wonder why a son isn't punished for the sins of his father. It is because the son does what is right and obeys my laws.	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.
20	Only those who sin will be put to death. Children won't suffer for the sins of their parents, and parents won't suffer for the sins of their children. Good people will be rewarded for what they do, and evil people will be punished for what they do.	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.
21	Suppose wicked people stop sinning and start obeying my laws and doing right. They won't be put to death.	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.
22	All their sins will be forgiven, and they will live because they did right.	All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
23	I, the Lord God, don't like to see wicked people die. I had much rather see them turn back from their sins and live.	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?
24	But when good people start sinning and doing disgusting things, will they live? No! All their good deeds will be forgotten, and they will be put to death because of their sins.	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.
25	You people of Israel accuse me of being unfair! But listen—I'm not unfair; you are!	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	If good people start doing evil, they must be put to death, because they have sinned.	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.
27	And if wicked people start doing right, they will save themselves from punishment.	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.
28	They will think about what they've done and stop sinning, and so they won't be put to death.	Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
29	But you still say that I am unfair. You are the ones who have done wrong and are unfair!	Yet saith the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal?
30	I will judge each of you for what you've done. So stop sinning, or else you will certainly be punished.	Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord God. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.
31	Give up your evil ways and start thinking pure thoughts. And be faithful to me! Do you really want to be put to death for your sins?	Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
32	I, the Lord God, don't want to see that happen to anyone. So stop sinning and live!	For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.
