The fsoul who 4sins will die. 5 "But if a man is righteous and practices justice and righteousness, 6 and does not 5eat at the mountain shrines or 6lift up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, or 7defile his neighbor's wife or approach a woman during her menstrual period - 7 if a man does not oppress anyone, but 8restores to the debtor his pledge, 9does not commit robbery, but 10gives his bread to the hungry and covers the naked with clothing,New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, California.
