To: Repent and Believe
Regarding your tagline:

Only the Douay-Rheims translates the verse this way.

The NRSVACE renders the passage as:

No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish as they did.

****

The NABRE:

By no means! But I tell you, if you do not repent, you will all perish as they did!

***************

Another example of a bad translation leading to bad theology.

“Another example of a bad translation leading to bad theology.”

Here are the bad translations: NRSVACE and the NABRE.
