And the word
of the LORD
came
to me, saying,
2
"Son
of
man
,
speak
to the sons
of your people
and say
to them, 'If
I bring
a sword
upon a land,
and the people
of the land
take
one
man
from among
them and make
him their watchman,
3
and he sees
the sword
coming
upon the land
and blows
on the trumpet
and warns
the people,
4
then he who hears
the sound
of the trumpet
and does not take warning,
and a sword
comes
and takes
him away, his blood
will be on his own head.
5
'
He heard
the sound
of the trumpet
but did not take
warning;
his blood
will be on himself. But had he taken warning,
he would have delivered
his life.
6
'
But if
the watchman
sees
the sword
coming
and does not blow
the trumpet
and the people
are not warned,
and a sword
comes
and takes
a person
from them, he is taken
away in his iniquity;
but his blood
I will require
from
the watchman
's
hand.'
7
"Now as for you, son
of man,
I have appointed
you a watchman
for the house
of Israel;
so you will hear
a message
from My mouth
and give them warning
from Me.
8
"When I say
to
the wicked
,
'O wicked
man,
you will surely
die,'
and you do not speak
to warn
the wicked
from his way,
that wicked man
shall die
in his iniquity,
but his blood
I will require
from your hand.
9
"But if
you on your part
warn
a wicked man
to turn
from his way
and he does not turn
from his way
,
he will die
in his iniquity,
but you have delivered
your life.
10
"Now as for you, son
of man,
say
to the house
of Israel,
'Thus
you have spoken,
say
ing,
"Surely
our transgressions
and our sins
are upon us, and we are rotting away
in them; how
then can we survive?"'
11
"Say
to them, 'As I live!'
declares
the Lord
GOD,
'I take
no
pleasure
in the death
of the wicked,
but rather
that the wicked
turn
from his way
and live.
Turn
back,
turn
back
from your evil
ways!
Why
then will you die,
O house
of Israel?'
12
"And you, son
of
man
,
say
to your fellow
citizens,
'
The righteousness
of a righteous
man
will not deliver
him in the day
of his transgression,
and as for the wickedness
of the wicked,
he will not stumble
because of it in the day
when he turns
from his wickedness;
whereas a righteous
man
will not be able
to live
by his righteousness on the day
when he commits sin.'
13
"When I say
to the righteous
he will surely
live,
and he so trusts
in his righteousness
that he commits
iniquity,
none
of his righteous deeds
will be remembered;
but in that same iniquity
of his which
he has committed
he will die.
14
"But when I say
to the wicked,
'You will surely
die,'
and he turns
from his sin
and practices
justice
and righteousness,
15
if a wicked man
restores
a pledge,
pays back
what he has taken by robbery,
walks
by the statutes
which ensure life
without
committing
iniquity,
he shall surely
live;
he shall not die.
16
"None
of his sins
that he has committed
will be remembered
against him. He has practiced
justice
and righteousness;
he shall surely
live.
17
"Yet your fellow
citizens
say,
'The way
of the Lord
is not right,'
when it is their own way
that is not right.
18
"When the righteous
turns
from his righteousness
and commits
iniquity,
then he shall die
in it.
19
"But when the wicked
turns
from his wickedness
and practices
justice
and righteousness,
he will live
by them.
20
"Yet you say,
'
The way
of the Lord
is not right.'
O house
of Israel,
I will judge
each
of you according to his ways."
21
Now in the twelfth
year
of our exile,
on the fifth
of the tenth
month,
the refugees
from Jerusalem
came
to me, saying,
"The city
has been taken."
22
Now the hand
of the LORD
had been
upon me in the evening,
before
the refugees
came.
And He opened
my mouth
at the time
they came
to me in the morning;
so
my mouth
was opened
and I was no
longer
speechless.
23
Then the word
of the LORD
came
to me saying,
24
"Son
of man,
they who live
in these
waste places
in
the land
of Israel
are saying,
'
Abraham
was only one,
yet he possessed
the land
;
so to us who are many
the land
has been given
as a possession.'
25
"Therefore
say
to them, 'Thus
says
the Lord
GOD,
"You eat
meat with the blood
in it, lift
up your eyes
to your idols
as you shed
blood.
Should you then possess
the land?
26
"You rely
on your sword,
you commit
abominations
and each
of you defiles
his neighbor's
wife.
Should you then possess
the land?"'
27
"Thus
you shall say
to them, 'Thus
says
the Lord
GOD,
"As I live,
surely
those who
are in the waste places
will fall
by the sword,
and whoever
is in the open
field
I will give
to the beasts
to be devoured,
and
those who
are in the strongholds
and in the caves
will die
of pestilence.
28
"I will make
the land
a desolation
and a waste,
and the pride
of her power
will cease;
and the mountains
of Israel
will be desolate
so
that no one
will pass through.
29
"Then they will know
that I am the LORD,
when I make
the land
a desolation
and a waste
because
of all
their abominations
which
they have committed."'
30
"But as for you, son
of man,
your fellow
citizens
who talk
about you by the walls
and in the doorways
of the houses,
speak
to one
another,
each
to his brother,
saying,
'
Come
now
and hear
what
the message
is which comes forth
from the LORD.'
31
"They come
to you as people
come,
and sit
before
you as My people
and hear
your words,
but they do not do
them, for they do
the lustful desires
expressed by their mouth,
and their heart
goes
after
their gain.
32
"Behold,
you are to them like a sensual
song
by one who has a beautiful
voice
and plays
well
on an instrument; for they hear
your words
but they do not practice
them.
33
"So when it comes
to pass--
as surely
it will-- then they will know
that a prophet
has been
in their midst."
