Ezekiel 33:3-6

3and he sees the sword coming upon the land and 1blows the 2horn and warns the people, 4then 3someone who hears the sound of the horn but 4does not take warning, and a sword comes and takes him away, his 5blood will be on his own head. 5He heard the sound of the horn but did not take warning; his blood will be on himself. But had he taken warning, he would have 6saved his life. 6But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the horn and the people are not warned, and a sword comes and takes a person from them, he is 7taken away for his wrongdoing; but I will 8require his 9blood from the watchman’s hand.’
