Ezekiel:33:1-20
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Again the word of the LORD came to me ,
saying ,
*
Son of man ,
speak to the children of thy people ,
and say to them ,
When I bring the sword upon a land ,
if the people of the land take a man from among them ,
and set him for their watchman : (
note :)
When …:
Hebrews .
A land when I bring a sword upon her (:
note )
*
If when he seeth the sword come upon the land ,
he shall blow the trumpet ,
and warn the people ;
*
Then whoever heareth the sound of the trumpet ,
and taketh not warning ;
if the sword will come ,
and take him away ,
his blood shall be upon his own head . (
note :)
whosoever …:
Hebrews .
he that hearing heareth (:
note )
*
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 .
*
But if the watchman will see the sword come ,
and blow not the trumpet ,
and the people be not warned ;
if the sword will come ,
and take person from among them ,
he is taken away in his iniquity ;
but his blood will I require at the watchman ’
s hand .
*
So thou ,
O son of man ,
I have set thee a watchman to the house of Israel ;
therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth ,
and warn them from me .
*
When I say to the wicked ,
O wicked ,
thou shalt surely die ;
if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way ,
that wicked shall die in his iniquity ;
but his blood will I require at thy hand .
*
Nevertheless ,
if thou shalt warn the wicked of his way to turn from it ;
if he will not turn from his way ,
he shall die in his iniquity ;
but thou hast delivered thy soul .
*
Therefore ,
O thou son of man ,
speak to the house of Israel ;
Thus ye speak ,
saying ,
If our transgressions and our sins upon us ,
and we pine away in them ,
how should we then live ?
*
Say to them ,
I live ,
saith the Lord GOD ,
I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked ;
but that the wicked should turn from his way and live :
turn ye ,
turn ye from your evil ways ;
for why will ye die ,
O house of Israel ?
*
Therefore ,
thou son of man ,
say to 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 by it in the day that he turneth from his wickedness ;
neither shall the righteous be able to live for his in the day that he sinneth .
*
When I shall say to the righteous ,
he shall surely live ;
if he will 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 .
*
Again ,
when I say to the wicked ,
Thou shalt surely die ;
if he will turn from his sin ,
and do that which is lawful and right ; (
note :)
that …:
Hebrews .
judgment and justice (:
note )
*
the wicked will restore the pledge ,
give again that which he had robbed ,
walk in the statutes of life ,
without committing iniquity ;
he shall surely live ,
he shall not die .
*
None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned to him :
he hath done that which is lawful and right ;
he shall surely live .
*
Yet the children of thy people say ,
The way of the Lord is not equal :
but as for them ,
their way is not equal .
*
When the righteous turneth from his righteousness ,
and committeth iniquity ,
for that he shall even die .
*
But if the wicked will turn from his wickedness ,
and do that which is lawful and right ,
for that he shall live .
*
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 .
