"Therefore, thou¹ sonª of man,ª sayª° unto¹ the childrenª of thy people,ª The righteousnessª of the righteousª shall not¹ deliverª° him in the dayª of his transgression:ª as for the wickednessª of the wicked,ª he shall not¹ fallª° thereby in the dayª that he turnethª° from his wickedness;ª¹ neither¹ shall the righteousª be ableª° to liveª° for his [righteousness] in the dayª that he sinneth.ª° ... When I shall sayª° to the righteous,ª [that] he shall surely²° live;ª° if he¹ trustª° to¹ his own righteousness,ª and commitª° iniquity,ª all¹ his righteousnessesª shall not¹ be remembered;ª° but for his iniquityª that¹ he hath committed,ª° he shall dieª° for it." {Ezk 33:12-13} + "When a righteousª [man] turneth awayª° from his righteousness,ª¹ and committethª° iniquity,ª and diethª° in¹ them; for his iniquityª that¹ he hath doneª° shall he die.ª° ... Again, when the wickedª [man] turneth awayª° from his wickednessª¹ that¹ he hath committed,ª° and doethª° that which is lawfulª and right,ª he¹ shall save²° his soul² alive.ª°¹¹" {Ezk 18:26-27} + "Forª ifª after they have escapedª° the¹ pollutionsª of the¹ worldª throughª the knowledgeª of the¹ Lordª andª Saviourª Jesusª Christ,ª they are²°¹ againª entangledª° therein,ª and²¹ overcome,ª²°° the¹ latter endª is¹ worseª with themª than the¹ beginning.ª ...
