Ezekiel 33:2-9

2SonH1121 of manH376, speakH1696 to the children of thy peopleH5971, and sayH559 unto them, When I bringH935 the swordH2719 upon a landH776, and the peopleH5971 of the landH776 takeH3947 a manH376 from among them, and setH5414 him for their watchmanH6822; 3if, when he seeth the swordH2719 comeH935 upon the landH776, he blowH8628 the trumpetH7782, and warnH2094 the peopleH5971; 4then whosoever heareth the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, and taketh not warning, if the swordH2719 comeH935, and takeH3947 him awayH3947, his bloodH1818 shall beH1961 upon his own headH7218. 5He heardH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, and took not warning; his bloodH1818 shall beH1961 upon him; whereas if he had taken warning, he would have deliveredH4422 his soulH5315. 6But if the watchmanH6822 seeH7200 the swordH2719 comeH935, and blowH8628 not the trumpetH7782, and the peopleH5971 be not warnedH2094, and the swordH2719 comeH935, and takeH3947 any personH5315 from among them; he is takenH3947 awayH3947 in his iniquityH5771, but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1875 at the watchman’sH6822 handH3027.

7So thou, sonH1121 of manH120, I have setH5414 thee a watchmanH6822 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; therefore hearH8085 the wordH1697 at my mouthH6310, and giveH5414 them warning from me. 8When I sayH559 unto the wickedH7563, O wickedH7563 man, thou shalt surely dieH4191, and thou dost not speakH1696 to warnH2094 the wickedH7563 from his wayH1870; that wickedH7563 man shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771, but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1245 at thy handH3027. 9Nevertheless, if thou warnH2094 the wickedH7563 of his wayH1870 to turnH7725 from it, and he turnH7725 not from his wayH1870; he shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771, but thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315.
