Ezekiel 18:29 Made Simple

KJV ORIGINAL

Yet saith the house of Israel, The way of the LORD is not equal. O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal?

Close to the original. Clear modern English.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

But the people of Israel keep saying, 'God's way isn't fair.' Really, Israel? My ways aren't fair? Maybe take a look at your own ways — aren't those the ones that are actually messed up?

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

God's calling out the people who blame him for being unfair when they're the ones making questionable choices.
