Ezekiel 33:6-8

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ “ ‘But if the watchman sees the enemy coming and doesn’t blow his horn to warn the people and the enemy comes and kills someone, that watchman must die because of his sin. I will hold him responsible for their deaths.’

⁷ “Son of man, I have appointed you as a watchman for the people of Israel. Listen to what I say, and warn them for me. ⁸ Suppose I say to a wicked person, ‘You wicked person, you will certainly die,’ and you say nothing to warn him to change his ways. That wicked person will die because of his sin, and I will hold you responsible for his death.
