    17"Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from My mouth, give them warning from Me.

    18If I say to a wicked person, 'You will surely die,' and you do not warn him or speak out to warn him to turn from his wicked ways to save his life, that wicked person will die in his sin, but I will hold you accountable for his blood.

    19But if you warn the wicked person and he does not turn from his wickedness or his wicked way, he will die in his sin, but you will have saved yourself.

    20Again, if a righteous person turns from his righteousness and does wrong, and I put a stumbling block before him, he will die. Since you did not warn him, he will die in his sin. His righteous acts will not be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for his blood.

    21But if you warn a righteous person not to sin and he does not sin, he will surely live because he heeded the warning, and you will have saved yourself.

    1The word of the LORD came to me, saying:

    2Son of man, speak to the people of your nation and say to them, 'When I bring a sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one man from among them and make him their watchman,'

    3and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows the trumpet to warn the people,

    4then if anyone hears the sound of the trumpet but does not take warning, and the sword comes and takes them away, their blood will be on their own head.

    5Since they heard the sound of the trumpet but did not take warning, their blood will be on themselves. If they had taken warning, they would have saved their lives.

    6But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes someone’s life, that person will die for their sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for their blood.

    7Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. So hear the word I speak and give them warning from me.

    8When I say to the wicked, ‘You wicked person, you will surely die,’ and you do not speak out to dissuade them from their ways, that wicked person will die for their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.

    10Son of man, say to the house of Israel, 'This is what you are saying: Our offenses and sins weigh us down, and we are wasting away because of them. How then can we live?'

    11Say to them, 'As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked turn from their ways and live. Turn back! Turn back from your evil ways! Why should you die, house of Israel?'

    12Therefore, son of man, say to your people, 'The righteousness of the righteous person will not save them on the day of their transgression, nor will the wickedness of the wicked person cause them to fall on the day they turn from their wickedness. The righteous person cannot live by their righteousness on the day they sin.'

    13If I say to the righteous person, 'You will surely live,' but they trust in their righteousness and commit iniquity, none of their righteous acts will be remembered. They will die because of the iniquity they have committed.

    14And if I say to the wicked person, 'You will surely die,' but they turn from their sin and do what is just and right—

    15if they return what they took in pledge for a loan, restore anything they have stolen, and follow the decrees that give life, doing no wrong—they will surely live; they will not die.

    16None of the sins they have committed will be remembered against them. They have done what is just and right; they will surely live.

    18But his father, because he practiced extortion, robbed his own people, and did what was not good among them—behold, he will die for his iniquity.

    19Yet you ask, ‘Why does the son not bear the guilt of his father?’ Since the son has done what is just and right, has carefully observed all my statutes, and has kept them, he will surely live.

    20The soul who sins will die. The son will not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous will be credited to them, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against them.

    21But if the wicked turn from all their sins that they have committed, keep all my statutes, and do what is just and right, they will live; they will not die.

    22None of the offenses they have committed will be remembered against them. Because of the righteousness they have practiced, they will live.

    23Do I take pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign Lord. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?
