Verse of the Day

Yikhazqal 33:17–20 (Ezekiel)

Yet the children of your people say, "The Darak of Yahuah is not balanced," but it is their Darak that is not balanced. When the Tsadaq turns from his Tsadaqah and ʿAsah ʿAwal, he shall die because of it. And when the Rashaʿ Shub from his Rashaʿ and ʿAsah Mishpat and Tsadaqah, he shall live because of them. Yet you say, "The Darak of Yahuah is not balanced." House of Yashar'al, I will Shaphat each of you according to his Darakim.
