Ezekiel 33:1-20

Again the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_,
speak
<01696> (8761)
to the children
<01121>
of thy people
<05971>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, When I bring
<0935> (8686)
the sword
<02719>
upon a land
<0776>_,
if the people
<05971>
of the land
<0776>
take
<03947> (8804)
a
<0259>
man
<0376>
of their coasts
<07097>_,
and set
<05414> (8804)
him for their watchman
<06822> (8802)_:
{When...: Heb. A land when I bring a sword upon her}
If when he seeth
<07200> (8804)
the sword
<02719>
come
<0935> (8802)
upon the land
<0776>_,
he blow
<08628> (8804)
the trumpet
<07782>_,
and warn
<02094> (8689)
the people
<05971>_;
Then whosoever
<08085> (8802)
heareth
<08085> (8804)
the sound
<06963>
of the trumpet
<07782>_,
and taketh not warning
<02094> (8737)_;
if the sword
<02719>
come
<0935> (8799)_,
and take him away
<03947> (8799)_,
his blood
<01818>
shall be upon his own head
<07218>_.
{whosoever...: Heb. he that hearing heareth}
He heard
<08085> (8804)
the sound
<06963>
of the trumpet
<07782>_,
and took not warning
<02094> (8737)_;
his blood
<01818>
shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning
<02094> (8737)
shall deliver
<04422> (8765)
his soul
<05315>_.
But if the watchman
<06822> (8802)
see
<07200> (8799)
the sword
<02719>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
and blow
<08628> (8804)
not the trumpet
<07782>_,
and the people
<05971>
be not warned
<02094> (8737)_;
if the sword
<02719>
come
<0935> (8799)_,
and take
<03947> (8799)
[any] person
<05315>
from among them, he is taken away
<03947> (8738)
in his iniquity
<05771>_;
but his blood
<01818>
will I require
<01875> (8799)
at the watchman's
<06822> (8802)
hand
<03027>_.
So thou, O son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_,
I have set
<05414> (8804)
thee a watchman
<06822> (8802)
unto the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_;
therefore thou shalt hear
<08085> (8804)
the word
<01697>
at my mouth
<06310>_,
and warn
<02094> (8689)
them from me.
When I say
<0559> (8800)
unto the wicked
<07563>_,
O wicked
<07563>
[man], thou shalt surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_;
if thou dost not speak
<01696> (8765)
to warn
<02094> (8687)
the wicked
<07563>
from his way
<01870>_,
that wicked
<07563>
[man] shall die
<04191> (8799)
in his iniquity
<05771>_;
but his blood
<01818>
will I require
<01245> (8762)
at thine hand
<03027>_.
Nevertheless, if thou warn
<02094> (8689)
the wicked
<07563>
of his way
<01870>
to turn
<07725> (8800)
from it; if he do not turn
<07725> (8804)
from his way
<01870>_,
he shall die
<04191> (8799)
in his iniquity
<05771>_;
but thou hast delivered
<05337> (8689)
thy soul
<05315>_.
Therefore, O thou son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_,
speak
<0559> (8798)
unto the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Thus ye speak
<0559> (8804)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
If our transgressions
<06588>
and our sins
<02403>
[be] upon us, and we pine away
<04743> (8737)
in them, how should we then live
<02421> (8799)_?
Say
<0559> (8798)
unto them, [As] I live
<02416>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
I have no pleasure
<02654> (8799)
in the death
<04194>
of the wicked
<07563>_;
but that the wicked
<07563>
turn
<07725> (8800)
from his way
<01870>
and live
<02421> (8804)_:
turn
<07725> (8798)
ye, turn
<07725> (8798)
ye from your evil
<07451>
ways
<01870>_;
for why will ye die
<04191> (8799)_,
O house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_?
Therefore, thou son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_,
say
<0559> (8798)
unto the children
<01121>
of thy people
<05971>_,
The righteousness
<06666>
of the righteous
<06662>
shall not deliver
<05337> (8686)
him in the day
<03117>
of his transgression
<06588>_:
as for the wickedness
<07564>
of the wicked
<07563>_,
he shall not fall
<03782> (8735)
thereby in the day
<03117>
that he turneth
<07725> (8800)
from his wickedness
<07562>_;
neither shall the righteous
<06662>
be able
<03201> (8799)
to live
<02421> (8800)
for his [righteousness] in the day
<03117>
that he sinneth
<02398> (8800)_.
When I shall say
<0559> (8800)
to the righteous
<06662>_,
[that] he shall surely
<02421> (8800)
live
<02421> (8799)_;
if he trust
<0982> (8804)
to his own righteousness
<06666>_,
and commit
<06213> (8804)
iniquity
<05766>_,
all his righteousnesses
<06666>
shall not be remembered
<02142> (8735)_;
but for his iniquity
<05766>
that he hath committed
<06213> (8804)_,
he shall die
<04191> (8799)
for it.
Again, when I say
<0559> (8800)
unto the wicked
<07563>_,
Thou shalt surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_;
if he turn
<07725> (8804)
from his sin
<02403>_,
and do
<06213> (8804)
that which is lawful
<04941>
and right
<06666>_;
{that...: Heb. judgment and justice}
[If] the wicked
<07563>
restore
<07725> (8686)
the pledge
<02258>_,
give again
<07999> (8762)
that he had robbed
<01500>_,
walk
<01980> (8804)
in the statutes
<02708>
of life
<02416>_,
without committing
<06213> (8800)
iniquity
<05766>_;
he shall surely
<02421> (8800)
live
<02421> (8799)_,
he shall not die
<04191> (8799)_.
None of his sins
<02403>
that he hath committed
<02398> (8804)
shall be mentioned
<02142> (8735)
unto him: he hath done
<06213> (8804)
that which is lawful
<04941>
and right
<06666>_;
he shall surely
<02421> (8800)
live
<02421> (8799)_.
Yet the children
<01121>
of thy people
<05971>
say
<0559> (8804)_,
The way
<01870>
of the Lord
<0136>
is not equal
<08505> (8735)_:
but as for them, their way
<01870>
is not equal
<08505> (8735)_.
When the righteous
<06662>
turneth
<07725> (8800)
from his righteousness
<06666>_,
and committeth
<06213> (8804)
iniquity
<05766>_,
he shall even die
<04191> (8804)
thereby.
But if the wicked
<07563>
turn
<07725> (8800)
from his wickedness
<07564>_,
and do
<06213> (8804)
that which is lawful
<04941>
and right
<06666>_,
he shall live
<02421> (8799)
thereby.
Yet ye say
<0559> (8804)_,
The way
<01870>
of the Lord
<0136>
is not equal
<08505> (8735)_.
O ye house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
I will judge
<08199> (8799)
you every one
<0376>
after his ways
<01870>_.
