1 Опет ми дође реч Господња говорећи:
1 Yahweh’s word came to me again, saying,
2 Шта хоћете ви који говорите причу о земљи Израиљевој говорећи: Оци једоше кисело грожђе, а синовима трну зуби?
2 “What 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’?
3 Тако ја био жив, говори Господ Господ, нећете више говорити те приче у Израиљу.
3 “As I live,” says the Lord Yahweh, “you shall not use this proverb any more in Israel.
4 Гле, све су душе моје, како душа очева тако и душа синовљева моја је, која душа згреши она ће погинути.
4 Behold, 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.
5 Јер ако је ко праведан и чини суд и правду,
5 “But if a man is just, and does that which is lawful and right,
6 на горама не једе и очију својих не подиже ка гадним боговима дома Израиљевог, и не скврни жене ближњег свог и не иде к жени одвојеној ради нечистоте,
6 and has not eaten on the mountains, hasn’t lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hasn’t defiled his neighbor’s wife, hasn’t come near a woman in her impurity,
7 и никоме не чини насиља, залог дужнику свом враћа, ништа не отима, хлеб свој даје гладноме и голога одева,
7 and 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;
8 не даје на добит и не узима придавка, од неправде устеже руку своју, и право суди између једног човека и другог,
8 he who hasn’t lent to them with interest, hasn’t taken any increase from them, who has withdrawn his hand from iniquity, has executed true justice between man and man,
9 по уредбама мојим ходи, и држи законе моје творећи истину; тај је праведан, доиста ће живети, говори Господ Господ.
9 has walked in my statutes, and has kept my ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live,” says the Lord Yahweh.
10 Ако роди сина лупежа, који би крв проливао или би чинио такво шта,
10 “If he fathers a son who is a robber who sheds blood, and who does any one of these things,
11 а не би чинио све оно, него би јео на горама, и жену ближњег свог скврнио,
11 or who does not do any of those things but has eaten at the mountain shrines and defiled his neighbor’s wife,
12 сиромаху и убогоме насиље чинио, отимао шта, залог не би враћао, и ка гадним боговима подизао би очи своје чинећи гад,
12 has 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,
13 давао би на добит, и узимао придавак; хоће ли тај живети? Неће живети; учинио је све те гадове, доиста ће погинути, крв ће његова на њему бити.
13 has lent with interest, and has taken increase from the poor, shall he then live? He shall not live. He has done all these abominations. He shall surely die. His blood will be on him.
14 Али гле, ако роди сина који би видео све грехе оца свог што чини, и узео би на ум, те не би чинио онако,
14 “Now, behold, if he fathers a son who sees all his father’s sins which he has done, and fears, and doesn’t do likewise,
15 не би јео на горама, нити би очију својих подизао ка гадним боговима дома Израиљевог, жене ближњег свог не би скврнио,
15 who hasn’t eaten on the mountains, hasn’t lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hasn’t defiled his neighbor’s wife,
16 и никоме не би чинио насиља, залог не би узимао и не би ништа отимао, давао би хлеб свој гладноме и голог би одевао,
16 hasn’t wronged any, hasn’t taken anything to pledge, hasn’t taken by robbery, but has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered the naked with a garment;
17 од сиромаха би устезао руку своју, не би узимао добити ни придавка, законе би моје извршио и по уредбама мојим ходио; тај неће погинути за безакоње оца свог, доиста ће живети.
17 who has withdrawn his hand from the poor, who hasn’t received interest or increase, has executed my ordinances, has walked in my statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father. He shall surely live.
18 А отац његов, што је чинио насиље, отимао од брата свог и чинио шта није добро у народу свом, гле, он ће погинути за своје безакоње.
18 As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, robbed his brother, and did that which is not good among his people, behold, he will die in his iniquity.
19 Али говорите: Зашто да не носи син безакоње очево? Јер син чини суд и правду, све уредбе моје држи и извршује; доиста ће живети.
19 “Yet 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 will surely live.
20 Која душа згреши она ће умрети, син неће носити безакоње очево нити ће отац носити безакоње синовљево; на праведнику ће бити правда његова, а на безбожнику ће бити безбожност његова.
20 The 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.
21 Ако ли би се безбожник обратио од свих греха својих које учини, и држао би све уредбе моје и творио суд и правду, доиста ће живети, неће погинути.
21 “But if the wicked turns from all his sins that he has committed, and keeps all my statutes, and does that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live. He shall not die.
22 Безакоња његова што их је год учинио неће му се више спомињати, у правди својој коју чини живеће.
22 None of his transgressions that he has committed will be remembered against him. In his righteousness that he has done, he shall live.
23 Еда ли је мени мило да погине безбожник? Говори Господ, а не да се одврати од путева својих и буде жив?
23 Have 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?
24 Али кад би се праведник одвратио од правде своје и чинио неправду, и радио по свим гадовима које чини безбожник, хоће ли он живети? Праведна дела његова, шта је год чинио, неће се споменути; за безакоње своје које учини за грех свој којим згреши погинуће.
24 “But when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does, should he live? None of his righteous deeds that he has done will be remembered. In his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has sinned, in them he shall die.
25 Још говорите: Није прав пут Господњи. Чујте, доме Израиљев, мој ли пут није прав? Нису ли ваши путеви неправи?
25 “Yet 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?
26 Кад се праведник одврати од правде своје и чини зло и умре за то, умреће за зло своје које учини.
26 When the righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and dies in it, then he dies in his iniquity that he has done.
27 А кад се безбожник одврати од безбожности своје коју је чинио, и чини суд и правду, он ће сачувати у животу душу своју.
27 Again, when the wicked man turns away from his wickedness that he has committed, and does that which is lawful and right, he will save his soul alive.
28 Јер узевши на ум врати се од свих безакоња својих која учини; доиста ће живети, и неће погинути.
28 Because he considers, and turns away from all his transgressions that he has committed, he shall surely live. He shall not die.
29 Али дом Израиљев вели: Пут Господњи није прав. Моји ли путеви нису прави? Доме Израиљев, нису ли ваши путеви неправи?
29 Yet 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?
30 Зато, доме Израиљев, судићу вам свакоме по путевима његовим, говори Господ; обратите се и прођите се свих греха својих, и неће вам безакоње бити на спотицање.
30 “Therefore 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 will not be your ruin.
31 Одбаците од себе сва безакоња која чинисте, и начинисте себи ново срце и нов дух; и зашто да мрете? Доме Израиљев.
31 Cast 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?
32 Јер ми није мила смрт оног који мре, говори Господ Господ; обратите се дакле и будите живи.
32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him who dies,” says the Lord Yahweh. “Therefore turn yourselves, and live!

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… and the Lord of all things has himself declared with an oath regarding it, "As I live, saith the Lord, I desire not the death of the sinner, but rather his repentance;" adding, moreover, this gracious declaration, "Repent, O house of Israel, of your iniquity. Say to the children of My people, Though your sins reach from earth to heaven, …
… not to despair of any so long as "the patience of God leadeth the ungodly to repentance," and doth not hurry him out of this life; "God, who willeth not the death of a sinner, but that he should return from his ways and live." He is a heathen today; but how knowest thou whether he may not be a …

Doth he turn away, and not return?" and, "I do not will the death of the sinner, so much as that he should turn and live:" and, "To-day if ye will hear His voice:" and many other such things, both sayings and examples are set in the Scripture.
