Ezekiel 33:2-5

2“Son of man, give your people this message: ‘When I bring an army against a country, the people of that land choose one of their own to be a watchman.

3When the watchman sees the enemy coming, he sounds the alarm to warn the people.

4Then if those who hear the alarm refuse to take action, it is their own fault if they die.

5They heard the alarm but ignored it, so the responsibility is theirs. If they had listened to the warning, they could have saved their lives.
