Ezekiel 18

4 Look, every life belongs to me.  * 18:4 Nm 16:22; 27:16 The life of the father is like the life of the son — both belong to me. The person who sins is the one who will die.  * 18:4 Dt 24:16; Ezk 18:20; Rm 6:23

20 The person who sins is the one who will die.  * 18:20 Ezk 18:4 A son won’t suffer punishment for the father’s iniquity, and a father won’t suffer punishment for the son’s iniquity.  * 18:20 Dt 24:16; Jn 9:2 The righteousness of the righteous person will be on him,  * 18:20 Is 3:10–11 and the wickedness of the wicked person will be on him.  * 18:20 Rm 2:6–9
