Ezekiel 3:16-18

New Century Version

Israel’s Warning

¹⁶ After seven days the Lord spoke his word to me again. He said, ¹⁷ “Human, I now make you a watchman for Israel. Any time you hear a word from my mouth, warn them for me. ¹⁸ When I say to the wicked, ‘You will surely die,’ you must warn them so they may live. If you don’t speak out to warn the wicked to stop their evil ways, they will die in their sin. But I will hold you responsible for their death.
