man turns away from the wickedness which he committed, and does what is
lawful and right, he preserves himself alive. Because he considers and turns
away from all the transgressions which he committed, he shall surely live; he shall
not die. et the house of IsraeI says, 'The way of the Lord is not fair.' O
