Righteous people will be rewarded for their own righteous behavior, and wicked people will be punished for their own wickedness. 21But if wicked people turn away from all their sins and begin to obey my decrees and do what is just and right, they will surely live and not die. 22All their past sins will be forgotten, and they will live because of the righteous things they have done.

And I gave them my Sabbath days of rest as a sign between them and me. It was to remind them that I am the Lord, who had set them apart to be holy.

Lord God my Father,

Draw me close and lead me to be righteous among the people. I want to obey your will but struggle with my own. Give me power over myself and deliver me to your way, may I honor you in all I do.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
