1Ang salita ng Panginoon ay dumating uli sa akin, na nagsasabi, 2Anong ibig ninyong sabihin na inyong sinasambit ang kawikaang ito tungkol sa lupain ng Israel, na sinasabi, Kinain ng mga magulang ang mga maasim na ubas, at ang mga ngipin ng mga anak ay nagsisipangilo? 3Buhay ako, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, hindi na ninyo sasambitin pa ang kawikaang ito sa Israel. 4Narito, lahat ng kaluluwa ay akin; kung paano ang kaluluwa ng ama, gayon din ang kaluluwa ng anak ay akin: ang kaluluwa na nagkakasala ay mamamatay. 5Nguni't kung ang isang tao ay maging ganap, at gumawa ng tapat at matuwid, 6At hindi kumain sa mga bundok, o itinaas man ang kaniyang mga mata sa mga diosdiosan ng sangbahayan ni Israel, o nadumhan man ang asawa ng kaniyang kapuwa, o lumapit man sa isang babae na may kapanahunan: 7At hindi pumighati sa kanino man, kundi nagsauli ng sangla sa mangungutang sa kaniya, hindi sumamsam ng anoman sa pamamagitan ng pangdadahas nagbigay ng kaniyang tinapay sa gutom, at nagbalot ng kasuutan sa hubad; 8Siya na hindi nagbigay na may patubo, o kumuha man ng anomang pakinabang, na iniurong ang kaniyang kamay sa kasamaan, gumawa ng tunay na kahatulan sa tao't tao, 9Lumakad ng ayon sa aking mga palatuntunan, at nagingat ng aking mga kahatulan upang gawing may katotohanan; siya'y ganap, siya'y walang pagsalang mabubuhay, sabi ng Panginoong Dios. 10Kung siya'y magkaanak ng isang lalake na tulisan, mangbububo ng dugo, at gumagawa ng alin man sa mga ganitong bagay, 11At hindi gumagawa ng alin man sa mga katungkulang yaon, kundi kumain nga sa mga bundok, at nadumhan ang asawa ng kaniyang kapuwa, 12Pumighati ng dukha at mapagkailangan, sumamsam sa pamamagitan ng pangdadahas, hindi nagsauli ng sangla, at itinaas ang kaniyang mga mata sa mga diosdiosan, gumawa ng kasuklamsuklam. 13Nagbigay na may patubo, at tumanggap ng pakinabang; mabubuhay nga baga siya? siya'y hindi mabubuhay: kaniyang ginawa ang lahat na kasuklamsuklam na ito: siya'y walang pagsalang mamamatay; ang kaniyang dugo ay sasa kaniya. 14Ngayon, narito, kung siya'y magkaanak ng isang lalake, na nakikita ang lahat na kasalanan ng kaniyang ama na ginawa, at natatakot, at hindi gumagawa ng gayon; 15Na hindi kumain sa mga bundok, o itinaas man ang kaniyang mga mata sa mga diosdiosan ng sangbahayan ni Israel; hindi nadumhan ang asawa ng kaniyang kapuwa, 16O pumighati man sa kanino man, hindi tumanggap ng anomang sangla, o sumamsam man sa pamamagitan ng pangdadahas, kundi nagbigay ng kaniyang tinapay sa gutom, at nagbalot ng kasuutan sa hubad; 17Na iniurong ang kaniyang kamay sa dukha, na hindi tumanggap ng patubo o ng pakinabang man, ginawa ang aking mga kahatulan, lumakad sa aking mga palatuntunan, hindi siya mamamatay, ng dahil sa kasamaan ng kaniyang ama, siya'y walang pagsalang mabubuhay. 18Tungkol sa kaniyang ama, sapagka't siya'y pumighating may kabagsikan, sumamsam sa kaniyang kapatid sa pamamagitan ng pangdadahas, at gumawa ng hindi mabuti sa gitna ng kaniyang bayan, narito siya'y mamamatay sa kaniyang kasamaan. 19Gayon ma'y sinasabi ninyo, Bakit hindi dinadala ng anak ang kasamaan ng ama? Pagka ginawa ng anak ang tapat at matuwid, at nag-ingat ng lahat na aking palatuntunan, at isinagawa, siya'y walang pagsalang mabubuhay. 20Ang kaluluwa na nagkakasala, mamamatay: ang anak ay hindi magdadanas ng kasamaan ng ama, o magdadanas man ang ama ng kasamaan ng anak; ang katuwiran ng matuwid ay sasa kaniya, at ang kasamaan ng masama ay sasa kaniya. 21Nguni't kung ang masama ay humiwalay sa kaniyang lahat na kasalanan na kaniyang nagawa, at ingatan ang lahat na aking mga palatuntunan, at gumawa ng tapat at matuwid, siya'y walang pagsalang mabubuhay, siya'y hindi mamamatay. 22Wala sa kaniyang mga pagsalangsang na nagawa niya na aalalahanin laban sa kaniya: sa kaniyang katuwiran na kaniyang ginawa ay mabubuhay siya. 23Mayroon baga akong anomang kasayahan sa kamatayan ng masama? sabi ng Panginoong Dios: at hindi baga mabuti na siya'y humiwalay sa kaniyang lakad, at mabuhay? 24Nguni't pagka ang matuwid ay humiwalay sa kaniyang katuwiran, at gumagawa ng kasamaan, at gumagawa ng ayon sa lahat na kasuklamsuklam na ginagawa ng masamang tao, mabubuhay baga siya? Walang aalalahanin sa kaniyang mga matuwid na gawa na kaniyang ginawa: sa kaniyang pagsalangsang na kaniyang isinalangsang, at sa kaniyang kasalanan na kaniyang ipinagkasala, sa mga yaon mamamatay siya. 25Gayon ma'y inyong sinasabi, Ang daan ng Panginoon ay hindi matuwid. Pakinggan mo ngayon, Oh sangbahayan ni Israel, Hindi baga ang aking daan ay matuwid? hindi baga ang iyong mga lakad ang di matuwid? 26Pagka ang matuwid ay humihiwalay sa kaniyang katuwiran, at gumagawa ng kasamaan, at kinamamatayan; sa kasamaan na kaniyang nagawa ay mamamatay siya. 27Muli, pagka ang masama ay humihiwalay sa kaniyang kasamaan na kaniyang nagawa, at gumawa ng tapat at matuwid, kaniyang ililigtas na buhay ang kaniyang kaluluwa. 28Sapagka't siya'y nagmunimuni, at humiwalay sa lahat niyang pagsalangsang na kaniyang nagawa, siya'y walang pagsalang mabubuhay, siya'y hindi mamamatay. 29Gayon ma'y sabi ng sangbahayan ni Israel, Ang daan ng Panginoon ay hindi matuwid. Oh sangbahayan ni Israel, hindi baga ang aking mga daan ay matuwid? hindi baga ang iyong mga lakad ay ang di matuwid? 30Kaya't hahatulan ko kayo, Oh sangbahayan ni Israel, bawa't isa'y ayon sa kaniyang mga lakad, sabi ng Panginoong Dios. Kayo'y mangagbalik-loob, at magsihiwalay kayo sa lahat ninyong pagsalangsang; sa gayo'y ang kasamaan ay hindi magiging inyong kapahamakan. 31Inyong iwaksi ang lahat ninyong pagsalangsang, na inyong isinalangsang: at kayo'y magbagong loob at magbagong diwa: sapagka't bakit kayo mamamatay, Oh angkan ni Israel? 32Sapagka't wala akong kasayahan sa kamatayan niya na namamatay, sabi ng Panginoong Dios: kaya't magsipagbalik-loob kayo, at kayo'y mangabuhay.
1Yahweh’s word came to me again, saying, 2What do you mean, that you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge? 3As I live, says the Lord Yahweh, you shall not use this proverb any more in Israel. 4Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul who sins, he shall die. 5But if a man is just, and does that which is lawful and right, 6and has not eaten on the mountains, neither has lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither has defiled his neighbor’s wife, neither has come near to a woman in her impurity, 7and has not wronged any, but has restored to the debtor his pledge, has taken nothing by robbery, has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered the naked with a garment; 8he who has not lent on interest, neither has taken any increase, who has withdrawn his hand from iniquity, has executed true justice between man and man, 9has walked in my statutes, and has kept my ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, says the Lord Yahweh. 10If he fathers a son who is a robber who sheds blood, and who does any one of these things, 11or who does not do any of those things, but even has eaten on the mountains, and defiled his neighbor’s wife, 12has wronged the poor and needy, has taken by robbery, has not restored the pledge, and has lifted up his eyes to the idols, has committed abomination, 13has lent on interest, and has taken increase; shall he then live? he shall not live: he has done all these abominations; he shall surely die; his blood shall be on him. 14Now, behold, if he fathers a son, who sees all his father’s sins, which he has done, and fears, and does not such like; 15who has not eaten on the mountains, neither has lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, has not defiled his neighbor’s wife, 16neither has wronged any, has not taken anything to pledge, neither has taken by robbery, but has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered the naked with a garment; 17who has withdrawn his hand from the poor, who has not received interest nor increase, has executed my ordinances, has walked in my statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live. 18As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, robbed his brother, and did that which is not good among his people, behold, he shall die in his iniquity. 19Yet you say, Why doesn’t the son bear the iniquity of the father? When the son has done that which is lawful and right, and has kept all my statutes, and has done them, he shall surely live. 20The soul who sins, he 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 on him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be on him. 21But if the wicked turn from all his sins that he has committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die. 22None of his transgressions that he has committed shall be remembered against him: in his righteousness that he has done he shall live. 23Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked? says the Lord Yahweh; and not rather that he should return from his way, and live? 24But when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does, shall he live? None of his righteous deeds that he has done shall be remembered: in his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has sinned, in them shall he die. 25Yet you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, house of Israel: Is my way not equal? Aren’t your ways unequal? 26When the righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and dies therein; in his iniquity that he has done shall he die. 27Again, when the wicked man turns away from his wickedness that he has committed, and does that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive. 28Because he considers, and turns away from all his transgressions that he has committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die. 29Yet the house of Israel says, “The way of the Lord is not fair.” House of Israel, aren’t my ways fair? Aren’t your ways unfair? 30Therefore I will judge you, house of Israel, everyone according to his ways, says the Lord Yahweh. Return, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. 31Cast away from you all your transgressions, in which you have transgressed; and make yourself a new heart and a new spirit: for why will you die, house of Israel? 32For I have no pleasure in the death of him who dies, says the Lord Yahweh: therefore turn yourselves, and live.
1Verder geschiedde des HEEREN woord tot mij, zeggende: 2Wat is ulieden, dat gij dit spreekwoord gebruikt van het land Israels, zeggende: De vaders hebben onrijpe druiven gegeten, en de tanden der kinderen zijn stomp geworden? 3Zo waarachtig als Ik leef, spreekt de Heere HEERE, zo het ulieden meer gebeuren zal, dit spreekwoord in Israel te gebruiken! 4Ziet, alle zielen zijn Mijne; gelijk de ziel des vaders, alzo ook de ziel des zoons, zijn Mijne; de ziel, die zondigt, die zal sterven. 5Wanneer nu iemand rechtvaardig is, en doet recht en gerechtigheid; 6Niet eet op de bergen, en zijn ogen niet opheft tot de drekgoden van het huis Israels; noch de huisvrouw zijns naasten verontreinigt, noch tot de afgezonderde vrouw nadert; 7En niemand verdrukt, den schuldenaar zijn pand wedergeeft, geen roof rooft, den hongerige zijn brood geeft, en den naakte met kleding bedekt; 8Niet geeft op woeker, noch overwinst neemt, zijn hand van onrecht afkeert, waarachtig recht tussen den een en den anderen oefent; 9In Mijn inzettingen wandelt, en Mijn rechten onderhoudt, om trouwelijk te handelen; die rechtvaardige zal gewisselijk leven, spreekt de Heere HEERE. 10Heeft hij nu een zoon gewonnen, die een inbreker is, die bloed vergiet, die zijn broeder doet een van deze dingen; 11En die al die dingen niet doet; maar eet ook op de bergen, en verontreinigt de huisvrouw zijns naasten; 12Verdrukt den ellendige en den nooddruftige, rooft veel roofs, geeft het pand niet weder, en heft zijn ogen op tot de drekgoden, doet gruwel; 13Geeft op woeker, en neemt overwinst; zou die leven? Hij zal niet leven, al die gruwelen heeft hij gedaan; hij zal voorzeker gedood worden; zijn bloed zal op hem zijn! 14Ziet nu, heeft hij een zoon gewonnen, die al de zonden zijn vaders, die hij doet, aanziet, en toeziet, dat hij dergelijke niet doet; 15Niet eet op de bergen, noch zijn ogen opheft tot de drekgoden van het huis Israels, de huisvrouw zijns naasten niet verontreinigt; 16En niemand verdrukt, het pand niet behoudt, en geen roof rooft, zijn brood den hongerige geeft, en den naakte met kleding bedekt; 17Zijn hand van den ellendige afhoudt, geen woeker noch overwinst neemt, Mijn rechten doet, en in Mijn inzettingen wandelt; die zal niet sterven om de ongerechtigheid zijns vaders; hij zal gewisselijk leven. 18Zijn vader, dewijl hij met onderdrukking onderdrukt heeft, des broeders goed geroofd heeft, en gedaan heeft, dat niet goed was in het midden zijner volken; ziet daar, hij zal sterven in zijn ongerechtigheid. 19Maar gijlieden zegt: Waarom draagt de zoon niet de ongerechtigheid des vaders? Immers zal de zoon, die recht en gerechtigheid gedaan heeft, en al Mijn inzettingen onderhouden, en die gedaan heeft, gewisselijk leven. 20De ziel, die zondigt, die zal sterven; de zoon zal niet dragen de ongerechtigheid des vaders, en de vader zal niet dragen de ongerechtigheid des zoons; de gerechtigheid des rechtvaardigen zal op hem zijn, en de goddeloosheid des goddelozen zal op hem zijn. 21Maar wanneer de goddeloze zich bekeert van al zijn zonden, die hij gedaan heeft, en al Mijn inzettingen onderhoudt, en doet recht en gerechtigheid, hij zal gewisselijk leven, hij zal niet sterven. 22Al zijn overtredingen, die hij gedaan heeft, zullen hem niet gedacht worden; in zijn gerechtigheid, die hij gedaan heeft, zal hij leven. 23Zou Ik enigzins lust hebben aan den dood des goddelozen, spreekt de Heere HEERE; is het niet, als hij zich bekeert van zijn wegen, dat hij leve? 24Maar als de rechtvaardige zich afkeert van zijn gerechtigheid, en onrecht doet, doende naar al de gruwelen, die de goddeloze doet, zou die leven? Al zijn gerechtigheden, die hij gedaan heeft, zullen niet gedacht worden; in zijn overtreding, waardoor hij overtreden heeft, en in zijn zonde, die hij gezondigd heeft, in die zal hij sterven. 25Nog zegt gijlieden: De weg des HEEREN is niet recht; hoort nu, o huis Israels! is Mijn weg niet recht? Zijn niet uw wegen onrecht? 26Als de rechtvaardige zich afkeert van zijn gerechtigheid, en onrecht doet, en sterft in dezelve, hij zal in zijn onrecht, dat hij gedaan heeft, sterven. 27Maar als de goddeloze zich bekeert van zijn goddeloosheid, die hij gedaan heeft, en doet recht en gerechtigheid, die zal zijn ziel in het leven behouden; 28Dewijl hij toeziet, en zich bekeert van al zijn overtredingen, die hij gedaan heeft, hij zal gewisselijk leven, hij zal niet sterven. 29Evenwel zegt het huis Israels: De weg des Heeren is niet recht. Zouden Mijn wegen, o huis Israels, niet recht zijn? Zijn niet uw wegen onrecht? 30Daarom zal Ik u richten, o huis Israels! een ieder naar zijn wegen, spreekt de Heere HEERE, keert weder, en bekeert u van al uw overtredingen, zo zal de ongerechtigheid u niet tot een aanstoot worden. 31Werpt van u weg al uw overtredingen, waardoor gij overtreden hebt, en maakt u een nieuw hart en een nieuwen geest; want waarom zoudt gij sterven, o huis Israels? 32Want Ik heb geen lust aan den dood des stervenden, spreekt de Heere HEERE; daarom bekeert u en leeft.
