Ezequiel 18:5 In-Context

3 Vivo eu, diz e Senhor Deus, não se vos permite mais usar deste provérbio em Israel.
4 Eis que todas as almas são minhas; como o é a alma do pai, assim também a alma do filho é minha: a alma que pecar, essa morrerá.
5 Sendo pois o homem justo, e procedendo com retidão e justiça,
6 não comendo sobre os montes, nem levantando os seus olhes para os ídolos da casa de Israel, nem contaminando a mulher do seu próximo, nem se chegando � mulher na sua separação;
7 não oprimindo a ninguém, tornando, porém, ao devedor e seu penhor, e não roubando, repartindo e seu pão com o faminto, e cobrindo ao nu com vestido;
