Ezekiel:3:14-21
Seeker Overlay ON
*
So the spirit lifted me up ,
and took me away ,
and I went in bitterness ,
in the heat of my spirit ;
but the hand of the LORD was strong upon me .
*
Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib ,
that dwelt by the river of Chebar ,
and I sat where they sat ,
and remained there astonished among them seven days .
*
And it came to pass at the end of seven days ,
that the word of the LORD came unto me ,
saying ,
*
Son of man ,
I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel :
therefore hear the word at my mouth ,
and give them warning from me .
*
When I say unto the wicked ,
Thou shalt surely die ;
and thou givest him not warning ,
nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way ,
to save his life ;
the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity ;
but his blood will I require at thine hand .
*
Yet if thou warn the wicked ,
and he turn not from his wickedness ,
nor from his wicked way ,
he shall die in his iniquity ;
but thou hast delivered thy soul .
*
Again ,
When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness ,
and commit iniquity ,
and I lay a stumblingblock before him ,
he shall die :
because thou hast not given him warning ,
he shall die in his sin ,
and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered ;
but his blood will I require at thine hand .
*
Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man ,
that the righteous sin not ,
and he doth not sin ,
he shall surely live ,
because he is warned ;
also thou hast delivered thy soul .
