Ezekiel 3:17

Ezekiel As A Watchman

¹⁶ At the end of the seven days, this message from the LORD came to me: ¹⁷ "Son of Man," he said, "I've appointed you to be a watchman over the house of Israel. Therefore when you hear a message that comes from me, you are to warn them for me. ¹⁸ "So when I say to a wicked person, "You're about to die,' if you don't warn or instruct that wicked person that his behavior is wicked so he can live, that wicked person will die in his sin, but I'll hold you responsible for his death.
