[14] So the spirit lifted me up, and took me away, in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of the LORD was strong [15] Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib, that dwelt by the river of Chebar, and I sat there astonished among them seven days. [16] And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, [17] 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 [18] When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. [19] 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. [20] 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. [21] Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous sin he shall surely because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.
