Does God destroy both the righteous and the wicked?


God destroys both the righteous and the wicked.

He destoyeth the perfect and the wicked. Job 9:22

All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness. Ecclesiastes 7:15

Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked. Ezekiel 21:3

God destroys the wicked, not the righteous.

He that ... hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept my judgments, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord. Ezekiel 18:8-9

When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, and hath kept all my statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live. The soul that sinneth, it shall die. Ezekiel 18:19-20

When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die thereby. But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby. Ezekiel 33:18-19
