| 21. Formal Translation But if the wicked turns back from all his sins which he has committed, and keeps all My statutes {Yahweh, Covenant Lawgiver}, and does justice and righteousness, he shall surely live; he shall not die. |
| 21. Dynamic Translation Yet if a wicked person turns away from every sin he has committed and carefully follows all My laws {Yahweh, Righteous Judge}, doing what is just and right, he will certainly live—he will not die. |
