Ezekiel 3:17

Ezekiel As A Watchman

¹⁶ And at the end of seven days, the word of the Lord came to me, saying, ¹⁷ Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the children of Israel: so give ear to the word of my mouth, and give them word from me of their danger. ¹⁸ When I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly be your fate; and you give him no word of it and say nothing to make clear to the evil-doer the danger of his evil way, so that he may be safe; that same evil man will come to death in his evil-doing; but I will make you responsible for his blood.
