There is
a way which
seemeth
right
unto a man,
but the end
thereof are the ways
of death.
Behold,
all souls
are mine;
as the soul
of the father,
so also
the soul
of the son
is mine:
the soul that sinneth,
it shall die.
Hath given forth
upon usury,
and hath taken increase:
shall he
then live?
he shall not live:
he hath done all
these abominations;
he shall surely die;
his blood
shall be upon him.
But if the wicked
will turn
from all
his sins that
he hath committed,
and keep all
my statutes,
and do
that which
is lawful
and right,
he shall surely live,
he shall not die.
Have
I any pleasure
at all
that the wicked
should die?
saith the Lord GOD:
and
not
that he
should return
from his ways,
and live?
But
when the righteous
turneth away
from his righteousness,
and committeth iniquity,
and doeth according to all
the abominations
that the wicked man doeth,
shall he live?
All his righteousness that
he hath done
shall not be mentioned:
in his trespass
that
he hath trespassed,
and in his sin
that he
hath sinned,
in them shall
he die.
When
I say
unto the wicked,
O wicked man,
thou shalt surely die;
if thou
dost not speak
to warn the wicked
from his way,
that wicked man
shall die
in his iniquity;
but his blood
will
I require
at thine hand.
Nevertheless,
if thou
warn the wicked
of his way
to turn from it;
if he
do not turn
from his way,
he shall die
in his iniquity;
but
thou hast delivered
thy soul.
Say unto them,
As I live,
saith the Lord GOD,
I have no pleasure
in the death
of the wicked;
but
that the wicked turn
from his way
and live:
turn ye,
turn
ye from your evil ways;
for why
will
ye die,
O house
of Israel?
Again,
when
I say
unto the wicked,
Thou shalt surely die;
if he
turn
from his sin,
and do
that which
is lawful
and right;
If the wicked
restore the pledge,
give again that
he had robbed,
walk
in the statutes
of life,
without committing iniquity;
he shall surely live,
he shall not die.
None of his sins that
he hath committed
shall be mentioned unto him:
he hath done
that which
is lawful
and right;
he shall surely live.
Enter
ye in
at the strait gate:
for wide
is the gate,
and broad
is the way,
that leadeth to destruction,
and many
there be
which go in thereat:
And fear not them which
kill the body,
but are not able
to kill the soul:
but
rather fear him which
is able
to destroy both soul
and body
in hell.
And cast
ye the unprofitable servant
into outer darkness:
there shall be weeping
and gnashing
of teeth.
Then shall
he say also
unto them
on the left hand,
Depart from me,
ye cursed,
into everlasting fire,
prepared
for the devil
and his angels:
And these
shall go away
into everlasting punishment:
but the righteous
into life eternal.
And
if thy hand
offend thee,
cut it off:
it is
better for thee
to enter
into life maimed,
than having two hands
to go into hell,
into the fire
that never shall be quenched:
Where their worm dieth not,
and the fire
is not quenched.
To give
light to them
that sit
in darkness
and in the shadow
of death,
to guide our feet
into the way
of peace.
Verily,
verily,
I say unto you,
He that heareth my word,
and believeth
on him that
sent me,
hath everlasting life,
and shall not come
into condemnation;
but is passed
from death
unto life.
Verily,
verily,
I say unto you,
The hour
is coming,
and now is,
when the dead
shall hear
the voice
of the Son
of God:
and
they that
hear shall live.
For as the Father
hath life
in himself;
so hath
he given
to the Son
to have life
in himself;
This is the bread
which cometh down
from heaven,
that a man
may eat thereof,
and not die.
I am
the living bread which
came down
from heaven:
if any man
eat of this bread,
he shall live
for ever:
and the bread that
I will give
is my flesh,
which I
will give
for the life
of the world.
Then Jesus
said unto them,
Verily,
verily,
I say unto you,
Except
ye eat
the flesh
of the Son
of man,
and drink
his blood,
ye have no life
in you.
And whosoever
liveth
and believeth
in me shall never die.
Believest thou this?
Who knowing the judgment
of God,
that they
which commit such things
are worthy
of death,
not only do
the same,
but have
pleasure in them that
do them.
Wherefore,
as by one man
sin entered
into the world,
and death
by sin;
and so death
passed
upon all men,
for that
all have sinned:
But not as the offence,
so also is
the free gift.
For if
through the offence
of one many
be dead,
much more
the grace of God,
and the gift
by grace,
which is by one man,
Jesus Christ,
hath abounded
unto many.
Know ye not,
that to whom
ye yield yourselves servants
to obey,
his servants
ye are
to whom ye obey;
whether of sin
unto death,
or of obedience
unto righteousness?
What fruit
had ye
then
in those things
whereof
ye are now ashamed?
for the end
of those things
is death.
For the wages
of sin
is death;
but
the gift
of God
is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
For sin,
taking occasion
by the commandment,
deceived me,
and by it
slew me.
For they
that
are after the flesh
do mind
the things
of the flesh;
but they
that are after the Spirit
the things
of the Spirit.
For to be carnally minded
is death;
but
to be spiritually minded
is life
and peace.
Therefore,
brethren,
we are debtors,
not to the flesh,
to live
after the flesh.
For if ye
live
after the flesh,
ye shall die:
but
if ye
through the Spirit
do mortify the deeds
of the body,
ye shall live.
What if God,
willing to shew
his wrath,
and to make
his power known,
endured
with much longsuffering
the vessels
of wrath
fitted
to destruction:
For the love
of Christ
constraineth us;
because
we thus judge,
that if one
died
for all,
then were all dead:
And you
hath
he quickened,
who were dead
in trespasses
and sins;
Even
when we
were dead
in sins,
hath quickened
us together
with Christ,
(by grace
ye are saved;)
And hath raised us up
together,
and made us
sit together
in heavenly places
in Christ Jesus:
Having
the understanding darkened,
being alienated
from the life
of God
through the ignorance
that is in them,
because
of the blindness
of their heart:
Wherefore
he saith,
Awake
thou
that sleepest,
and arise
from the dead,
and Christ
shall give thee light.
And you,
being dead
in your sins
and the uncircumcision
of your flesh,
hath
he quickened together with him,
having forgiven you
all trespasses;
Who shall be punished
with everlasting destruction
from the presence
of the Lord,
and
from the glory
of his power;
But she
that
liveth in pleasure
is dead
while she liveth.
Then
when lust
hath conceived,
it bringeth
forth sin:
and sin,
when it
is finished,
bringeth forth death.
There is
one lawgiver,
who is able
to save and
to destroy:
who art
thou
that judgest
another?
Who his own self bare
our sins
in his own body
on the tree,
that we,
being dead
to sins,
should live
unto righteousness:
by whose stripes
ye were healed.
But these,
as natural brute beasts,
made to be taken
and destroyed,
speak evil
of the things
that
they understand not;
and shall utterly perish
in their own corruption;
He that
hath the Son
hath life;
and he that
hath not
the Son of God
hath not life.
He that
hath an ear,
let him
hear
what the Spirit
saith unto the churches;
He
that overcometh
shall not be hurt
of the second death.
And the beast
was taken,
and with him the false prophet
that wrought miracles
before him,
with which
he deceived them
that had received
the mark
of the beast,
and them
that worshipped
his image.
These both
were cast alive
into a lake
of fire
burning with brimstone.
And death
and hell
were cast
into the lake
of fire.
This is the second death.
But the fearful,
and unbelieving,
and the abominable,
and murderers,
and whoremongers,
and sorcerers,
and idolaters,
and all liars,
shall have their part
in the lake
which burneth
with fire
and brimstone:
which is the second death.
