26:033:006 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 watchman’s
hand.
26:033:007 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.
26:033:008 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.
26:033:009 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.
26:033:010 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?
26:033:011 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?
26:033:012 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.
26:033:013 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.
26:033:014 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;
26:033:015 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.
26:033:016 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.
26:033:017 Yet the children of thy people say, The
way of the Lord is not
equal:
but as for them, their way is not equal.
