@ Again the
word
of the
LORD
came unto me,
saying
,
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:2
@
Son
of
man
,
speak
to the
children
of thy
people
, and
say
unto them, When I
bring
the
sword
upon a
land
, if the
people
of the
land
take
a
man
of their
coasts
, and
set
him for their
watchman
:
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:3
@ If when he
seeth
the
sword
come
upon the
land
, he
blow
the
trumpet
, and
warn
the
people
;
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:4
@ Then
whosoever
heareth
the
sound
of the
trumpet
, and taketh not
warning
; if the
sword
come
, and take him
away
, his
blood
shall be upon his own
head
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:5
@ He
heard
the
sound
of the
trumpet
, and took not
warning
; his
blood
shall be upon him. But he that taketh
warning
shall
deliver
his
soul
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:6
@ But if the
watchman
see
the
sword
come
, and
blow
not the
trumpet
, and the
people
be not
warned
; if the
sword
come
, and
take
any
person
from among them, he is taken
away
in his
iniquity
; but his
blood
will I
require
at the
watchmans
hand
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:7
@ So thou, O
son
of
man
, I have
set
thee a
watchman
unto the
house
of
Israel
; therefore thou shalt
hear
the
word
at my
mouth
, and
warn
them from me.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:8
@ When I
say
unto the
wicked
, O
wicked
man, thou shalt
surely
die
; if thou dost not
speak
to
warn
the
wicked
from his
way
, that
wicked
man shall
die
in his
iniquity
; but his
blood
will I
require
at thine
hand
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:9
@ Nevertheless, if thou
warn
the
wicked
of his
way
to
turn
from it; if he do not
turn
from his
way
, he shall
die
in his
iniquity
; but thou hast
delivered
thy
soul
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:10
@ Therefore, O thou
son
of
man
,
speak
unto the
house
of
Israel
; Thus ye
speak
,
saying
, If our
transgressions
and our
sins
be upon us, and we pine
away
in them, how should we then
live
?
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:11
@
Say
unto them, As I
live
,
saith
the
Lord
GOD
, I have no
pleasure
in the
death
of the
wicked
; but that the
wicked
turn
from his
way
and
live
:
turn
ye,
turn
ye from your
evil
ways
; for why will ye
die
, O
house
of
Israel
?
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:12
@ Therefore, thou
son
of
man
,
say
unto the
children
of thy
people
, The
righteousness
of the
righteous
shall not
deliver
him in the
day
of his
transgression
: as for the
wickedness
of the
wicked
, he shall not
fall
thereby in the
day
that he
turneth
from his
wickedness
; neither shall the
righteous
be
able
to
live
for his righteousness in the
day
that he
sinneth
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:13
@ When I shall
say
to the
righteous
, that he shall
surely
live
; if he
trust
to his own
righteousness
, and
commit
iniquity
, all his
righteousnesses
shall not be
remembered
; but for his
iniquity
that he hath
committed
, he shall
die
for it.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:14
@ Again, when I
say
unto the
wicked
, Thou shalt
surely
die
; if he
turn
from his
sin
, and
do
that which is
lawful
and
right
;
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:15
@ If the
wicked
restore
the
pledge
, give
again
that he had
robbed
,
walk
in the
statutes
of
life
, without
committing
iniquity
; he shall
surely
live
, he shall not
die
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:16
@ None of his
sins
that he hath
committed
shall be
mentioned
unto him: he hath
done
that which is
lawful
and
right
; he shall
surely
live
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:17
@ Yet the
children
of thy
people
say
, The
way
of the
Lord
is not
equal
: but as for them, their
way
is not
equal
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:18
@ When the
righteous
turneth
from his
righteousness
, and
committeth
iniquity
, he shall even
die
thereby.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:19
@ But if the
wicked
turn
from his
wickedness
, and
do
that which is
lawful

right
, he shall
live
thereby.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:20
@ Yet ye
say
, The
way
of the
Lord
is not
equal
. O ye
house
of
Israel
, I will
judge
you every
one
after his
ways
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:21
@ And it came to pass in the
twelfth
sh@
year
of our
captivity
, in the
tenth
month, in the
fifth
day of the
month
, that one that had
escaped
out of
Jerusalem
came
unto me,
saying
, The
city
is
smitten
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:22
@ Now the
hand
of the
LORD
was upon me in the
evening
,
afore
he that was
escaped
came
; and had
opened
my
mouth
, until he
came
to me in the
morning
; and my
mouth
was
opened
, and I was no more
dumb
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:23
@ Then the
word
of the
LORD
came unto me,
saying
,
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:24
@
Son
of
man
, they that
inhabit
those
wastes
of the
land
of
Israel
speak
,
saying
,
Abraham
was
one
, and he
inherited
the
land
: but we are
many
; the
land
is
given
us for
inheritance
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:25
@ Wherefore
say
unto them, Thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD
; Ye
eat
with the
blood
, and lift
up
your
eyes
toward your
idols
, and
shed
blood
: and shall ye
possess
the
land
?
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:26
@ Ye
stand
upon your
sword
, ye
work
abomination
, and ye
defile
every
one
his
neighbours
wife
: and shall ye
possess
the
land
?
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:27
@
Say
thou thus unto them, Thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD
; As I
live
, surely they that are in the
wastes
shall
fall
by the
sword
, and him that is in the
open
field
will I
give
to the
beasts
to be
devoured
, and they that be in the
forts
and in the
caves
shall
die
of the
pestilence
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:28
@ For I will
lay
the
land
most
desolate
, and the
pomp
of her
strength
shall
cease
; and the
mountains
of
Israel
shall be
desolate
, that none shall pass
through
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:29
@ Then shall they
know
that I am the
LORD
, when I have
laid
the
land
most
desolate
because of all their
abominations
which they have
committed
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:30
@ Also, thou
son
of
man
, the
children
of thy
people
still are
talking
against
thee by the
walls
and in the
doors
of the
houses
, and
speak
one
to
another
, every
one
to his
brother
,
saying
,
Come
, I pray you, and
hear
what is the
word
that cometh
forth
from the
LORD
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:31
@ And they
come
unto thee as the
people
cometh
, and they
sit
before
thee as my
people
, and they
hear
thy
words
, but they will not
do
them: for with their
mouth
they
shew
much
love
, but their
heart
goeth
after
their
covetousness
.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:32
@ And, lo, thou art unto them as a very
lovely
song
of one that hath a
pleasant
voice
, and can play
well
on an
instrument
: for they
hear
thy
words
, but they
do
them not.
strkjv@Ezekiel:33:33
@ And when this cometh to
pass
, (lo, it will
come
,) then shall they
know
that a
prophet
hath been
among
them.
