15 if the wicked arestores the pledge, bgives back what he has stolen, and walks in cthe statutes of life without committing iniquity, he shall surely live; he shall not die.
16 aNone of his sins which he has committed shall be remembered against him; he has done what is lawful and right; he shall surely live.
17 a“Yet the children of your people say, ‘The way of the Lord is not1 fair.’ But it is their way which is not fair!
18 aWhen the righteous turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, he shall die because of it.
19 But when the wicked turns from his wickedness and does what is lawful and right, he shall live because of it.
20 Yet you say, a‘The way of the Lord is not fair.’ O house of Israel, I will judge every one of you according to his own ways.”
The Fall of Jerusalem
21 And it came to pass in the twelfth year aof our captivity, in the tenth month, on the fifth day of the month, bthat one who had escaped from Jerusalem came to me and said, c“The city has been captured!”
