Ezekiel 33:20 In-Context

18 When a righteous person turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, he will die on account of this.
19 But when a wicked person turns from his wickedness and does what is just and right, he will live because of this.
20 Yet you say: The Lord's way isn't fair. I will judge each of you according to his ways, house of Israel."
21 In the twelfth year of our exile, in the tenth [month], on the fifth [day] of the month, a fugitive from Jerusalem came to me and reported, "The city has been taken!"
22 Now the hand of the Lord had been on me the evening before the fugitive arrived, and He opened my mouth before the man came to me in the morning. So my mouth was opened and I was no longer mute.
