Ezekiel 33:6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ If the lookout sees the sword coming but doesn’t blow the trumpet to warn the people, when the sword comes and takes away any of them, they are taken away in their sin, but I’ll hold the lookout responsible for their blood.

⁷ You, human one, I’ve made you a lookout for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear me speaking, you must give them warning from me. ⁸ If I pronounce a death sentence on wicked people, and you don’t warn them to turn from their way, they will die in their guilt, but I will hold you responsible for their blood.
