10 “And you, son of man, say to the house of Israel, Thus have you said: ‘Surely our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and we ^hrot away because of them. How then can we live?’ 11 Say to them, As I live, declares the Lord God, ⁱI have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked ^jturn from his way and live; turn back, ^kturn back from your evil ways, for ^lwhy will you die, O house of Israel?
