⁷ “Now as for you, son of man, I have ^(A)given you as a watchman for the house of Israel; so you will hear a word from My mouth and give them ^(B)warning from Me. ⁸ When I say to the wicked, ‘O wicked man, you will ^(C)surely die,’ and you do not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require from your hand. ⁹ But as for you, if you on your part warn a wicked man to turn from his way and he ^(D)does not turn from his way, he will die in his iniquity, but you have ^(E)delivered your life.
