人子歟、謂爾民族曰、義人干罪之日、其義不能救之、惡人去惡之日、其惡不能隕之、義人干罪之日、不能藉其義而得生、

人子啊，你要对本国的子民说：义人的义，在犯罪之日不能救他；至于恶人的恶，在他转离恶行之日也不能使他倾倒；义人在犯罪之日也不能因他的义存活。

人子啊，你要对本国的百姓说：义人的义，在他犯罪之日不能救他；至于恶人的恶，在他转离恶行之日不会使他倾倒；义人在他犯罪之日不能因自己的义存活。

人子啊，你要对你的同胞说，‘当义人犯罪时，他以往的义救不了他；当恶人悔改时，他以往的恶不会使他灭没。义人若犯罪，他以往的义不能使他存活。’

人子啊！你要对你本国的人说：‘义人的义在他犯罪的日子，不能救他；恶人的恶在他离开恶行的日子，也不会绊倒他；义人在他犯罪的日子，也不能因他的义存活。’

人子啊，你要對本國的人民說：義人的義，在犯罪之日不能救他；至於惡人的惡，在他轉離惡行之日也不能使他傾倒；義人在犯罪之日也不能因他的義存活。

人子、當告民云、如善人陷罪、不因前善而獲救、惡人悛改、不因舊惡而殞亡、

惟爾人子歟、當告爾民曰、善人若有時犯罪、其前善不能救之、惡人若悔改其惡、其前惡不能害之、善人獲罪之日、不能恃其前善以得生、

“ Therefore, son of man, say to your people,‘ If someone who is righteous disobeys, that person’s former righteousness will count for nothing. And if someone who is wicked repents, that person’s former wickedness will not bring condemnation. The righteous person who sins will not be allowed to live even though they were formerly righteous.’

“ Son of man, speak to your people. Tell them,‘ Suppose a godly person does not obey the Lord. Then the right things that person has done in the past count for nothing. Suppose a sinful person turns away from doing wrong things. Then the wrong things that person has done in the past won’t bring them judgment. A godly person who sins won’t be allowed to live. That’s true even though they used to do right things.’

“ And you, son of man, say to your people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him when he transgresses, and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall by it when he turns from his wickedness, and the righteous shall not be able to live by his righteousness when he sins.

“ Son of man, give your people this message: The righteous behavior of righteous people will not save them if they turn to sin, nor will the wicked behavior of wicked people destroy them if they repent and turn from their sins.

“ Now, son of man, say to your people,‘ The righteousness of the righteous person will not save him on the day of his transgression; neither will the wickedness of the wicked person cause him to stumble on the day he turns from his wickedness. The righteous person won’t be able to survive by his righteousness on the day he sins.

And you, son of man, say to your fellow citizens,‘ The righteousness of a righteous one will not save him on the day of his offense, and as for the wickedness of a wicked one, he will not stumble because of it on the day when he turns from his wickedness; whereas a righteous one will not be able to live by his righteousness on the day when he commits sin.’

“ Therefore you, O son of man, say to the children of your people:‘ The righteousness of the righteous man shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression; as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall because of it in the day that he turns from his wickedness; nor shall the righteous be able to live because of his righteousness in the day that he sins.’

And thou, son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression; and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall he that is righteous be able to live thereby in the day that he sinneth.

“ Now, son of man, say to your people: The righteousness of the righteous person will not save him on the day of his transgression; neither will the wickedness of the wicked person cause him to stumble on the day he turns from his wickedness. The righteous person won’t be able to survive by his righteousness on the day he sins.

Therefore, thou son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall the righteous be able to live for his[ righteousness] in the day that he sinneth.

“ And you, son of man, say to your people,‘ The righteousness of the righteous will not deliver him if he rebels. As for the wicked, his wickedness will not make him stumble if he turns from it. The righteous will not be able to live by his righteousness if he sins.’

“ You, son of man, tell the children of your people,‘ The righteousness of the righteous will not deliver him in the day of his disobedience. And as for the wickedness of the wicked, he will not fall by it in the day that he turns from his wickedness; neither will he who is righteous be able to live by it in the day that he sins.

義人轉離其義而行惡、必死於其中、惡人轉離其惡、循法合理、則因之而得生、

上帝立耶穌為挽回之祭、俾信之者藉其血而獲宥、以彰上帝義、因其寬容不究既往之罪、

我小子乎、我書此遺爾、免爾干罪、人若干罪、則我儕於父前有代言者、即義者耶穌基督也、

如義人轉離其義而行惡、效惡人行可惡之事、豈得生存乎、其所行之義、不復見憶、必死於其所蹈之愆、所犯之罪、惟爾曹云、主道不公、以色列家其聽之、我之道、豈非公乎、爾之道、豈非不公乎、義人轉離其義而行惡、因而致死、是因所行之惡而死、如惡人轉離所行之惡、循法合理、必保其生、因其思維、悛改所犯之罪、必得生存、不至死亡、以色列家猶云、主道不公、以色列家歟、我之道、豈非公乎、爾之道、豈非不公乎、故主耶和華曰、以色列家歟、我必依各人所行而鞫之、爾其回轉、離棄諸罪、免愆尤之窒礙、以色列家歟、當棄所犯之罪、新爾心神、奚自取死、主耶和華曰、人之死亡、我所不悅、故當回轉、而得生存、

如惡人悛改所犯之罪、守我典章、循法合理、必得生存、不至死亡、

人子歟、謂爾民族曰、我若使刃臨於一邦、是邦之民、簡其中一人、立為戍卒、

在敵人虜者之地、一心一意歸爾、向其故土、爾所錫其列祖者、與爾所簡之邑、及我為爾名所建之室、祈禱於爾、願爾在天爾之居所、聽其禱告祈求、而保其義、寬恕獲罪於爾之民、宥其對爾所干之咎、使於虜者之前、得其矜憫、

如義人背義行惡、我置窒礙於其前、彼必死亡、爾不警之、彼死於罪、所行之義、不復見憶、我必索其血於爾手、如爾警義人、使不犯罪、而彼誠不犯罪、彼則生存、爾亦得救己命、○

或有二子、謂其長子曰、我子今日往葡萄園工作、對以不往、後悔而往、謂其仲子亦如之、對曰、主諾、既而不往、二者孰遵父旨乎、曰、長子、耶穌曰、我誠語汝、稅吏娼妓、先爾入上帝國矣、
