Ezekiel 33:6-16

6But if the watchmanH6822 seeH7200 the swordH2719 comeH935, and blowH8628 not the trumpetH7782, and the peopleH5971 be not warnedH2094; if the swordH2719 comeH935, and takeH3947 any personH5315 from among them, he is taken awayH3947 in his iniquityH5771; but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1875 at the watchman’sH6822 handH3027.

7So thou, O sonH1121 of manH120, I have setH5414 thee a watchmanH6822 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; therefore thou shalt hearH8085 the wordH1697 at my mouthH6310, and warnH2094 them from me. 8When I sayH559 unto the wickedH7563, O wickedH7563 man, thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191; if 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 thine handH3027. 9Nevertheless, if thou warnH2094 the wickedH7563 of his wayH1870 to turnH7725 from it; if he do not turnH7725 from his wayH1870, he shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771; but thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315. 10Therefore, O thou sonH1121 of manH120, speakH559 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; Thus ye speakH559, sayingH559, If our transgressionsH6588 and our sinsH2403 be upon us, and we pine awayH4743 in them, how should we then liveH2421? 11SayH559 unto them, As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 YhwhH3069, I have no pleasureH2654 in the deathH4194 of the wickedH7563; but that the wickedH7563 turnH7725 from his wayH1870 and liveH2421: turnH7725 ye, turnH7725 ye from your evilH7451 waysH1870; for why will ye dieH4191, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478? 12Therefore, thou sonH1121 of manH120, sayH559 unto the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971, The righteousnessH6666 of the righteousH6662 shall not deliverH5337 him in the dayH3117 of his transgressionH6588: as for the wickednessH7564 of the wickedH7563, he shall not fallH3782 thereby in the dayH3117 that he turnethH7725 from his wickednessH7562; neither shall the righteousH6662 be ableH3201 to liveH2421 for his righteousness in the dayH3117 that he sinnethH2398. 13When I shall sayH559 to the righteousH6662, that he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421; if he trustH982 to his own righteousnessH6666, and commitH6213 iniquityH5766, all his righteousnessesH6666 shall not be rememberedH2142; but for his iniquityH5766 that he hath committedH6213, he shall dieH4191 for it. 14Again, when I sayH559 unto the wickedH7563, Thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191; if he turnH7725 from his sinH2403, and doH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666;1 15If the wickedH7563 restoreH7725 the pledgeH2258, give againH7999 that he had robbedH1500, walkH1980 in the statutesH2708 of lifeH2416, without committingH6213 iniquityH5766; he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421, he shall not dieH4191. 16None of his sinsH2403 that he hath committedH2398 shall be mentionedH2142 unto him: he hath doneH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666; he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421.
