Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, speakH1696 to the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971, and sayH559 unto them, When I bringH935 the swordH2719 upon a landH776, if the peopleH5971 of the landH776 takeH3947 aH259 manH376 of their coastsH7097, and setH5414 him for their watchmanH6822: {When…: Heb. A land when I bring a sword upon her}
If when he seethH7200 the swordH2719 comeH935 upon the landH776, he blowH8628 the trumpetH7782, and warnH2094 the peopleH5971;
Then whosoeverH8085 hearethH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, and taketh not warningH2094; if the swordH2719 comeH935, and take him awayH3947, his bloodH1818 shall be upon his own headH7218. {whosoever…: Heb. he that hearing heareth}
He heardH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, and took not warningH2094; his bloodH1818 shall be upon him. But he that taketh warningH2094 shall deliverH4422 his soulH5315.
But if the watchmanH6822 seeH7200 the swordH2719 comeH935, and blowH8628 not the trumpetH7782, and the peopleH5971 be not warnedH2094; if the swordH2719 comeH935, and takeH3947 any personH5315 from among them, he is taken awayH3947 in his iniquityH5771; but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1875 at the watchman'sH6822 handH3027.
So thou, O sonH1121 of manH120, I have setH5414 thee a watchmanH6822 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; therefore thou shalt hearH8085 the wordH1697 at my mouthH6310, and warnH2094 them from me.
When I sayH559 unto the wickedH7563, O wickedH7563 man, thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191; if thou dost not speakH1696 to warnH2094 the wickedH7563 from his wayH1870, that wickedH7563 man shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771; but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1245 at thine handH3027.
Nevertheless, if thou warnH2094 the wickedH7563 of his wayH1870 to turnH7725 from it; if he do not turnH7725 from his wayH1870, he shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771; but thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315.
Therefore, O thou sonH1121 of manH120, speakH559 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; Thus ye speakH559, sayingH559, If our transgressionsH6588 and our sinsH2403 be upon us, and we pine awayH4743 in them, how should we then liveH2421?
SayH559 unto them, As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, I have no pleasureH2654 in the deathH4194 of the wickedH7563; but that the wickedH7563 turnH7725 from his wayH1870 and liveH2421: turnH7725 ye, turnH7725 ye from your evilH7451 waysH1870; for why will ye dieH4191, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478?
Therefore, thou sonH1121 of manH120, sayH559 unto the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971, The righteousnessH6666 of the righteousH6662 shall not deliverH5337 him in the dayH3117 of his transgressionH6588: as for the wickednessH7564 of the wickedH7563, he shall not fallH3782 thereby in the dayH3117 that he turnethH7725 from his wickednessH7562; neither shall the righteousH6662 be ableH3201 to liveH2421 for his righteousness in the dayH3117 that he sinnethH2398.
When I shall sayH559 to the righteousH6662, that he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421; if he trustH982 to his own righteousnessH6666, and commitH6213 iniquityH5766, all his righteousnessesH6666 shall not be rememberedH2142; but for his iniquityH5766 that he hath committedH6213, he shall dieH4191 for it.
Again, when I sayH559 unto the wickedH7563, Thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191; if he turnH7725 from his sinH2403, and doH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666; {that…: Heb. judgment and justice}
If the wickedH7563 restoreH7725 the pledgeH2258, give againH7999 that he had robbedH1500, walkH1980 in the statutesH2708 of lifeH2416, without committingH6213 iniquityH5766; he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421, he shall not dieH4191.
None of his sinsH2403 that he hath committedH2398 shall be mentionedH2142 unto him: he hath doneH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666; he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421.
Yet the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971 sayH559, The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is not equalH8505: but as for them, their wayH1870 is not equalH8505.
When the righteousH6662 turnethH7725 from his righteousnessH6666, and committethH6213 iniquityH5766, he shall even dieH4191 thereby.
But if the wickedH7563 turnH7725 from his wickednessH7564, and doH6213 that which is lawfulH4941 and rightH6666, he shall liveH2421 thereby.
Yet ye sayH559, The wayH1870 of the LordH136 is not equalH8505. O ye houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, I will judgeH8199 you every oneH376 after his waysH1870.
And it came to pass in the twelfthH8147+H6240 yearH8141 of our captivityH1546, in the tenthH6224 month, in the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, that one that had escapedH6412 out of JerusalemH3389 cameH935 unto me, sayingH559, The cityH5892 is smittenH5221.
Now the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was upon me in the eveningH6153, aforeH6440 he that was escapedH6412 cameH935; and had openedH6605 my mouthH6310, until he cameH935 to me in the morningH1242; and my mouthH6310 was openedH6605, and I was no more dumbH481.
Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, they that inhabitH3427 those wastesH2723 of the landH127 of IsraelH3478 speakH559, sayingH559, AbrahamH85 was oneH259, and he inheritedH3423 the landH776: but we are manyH7227; the landH776 is givenH5414 us for inheritanceH4181.
Wherefore sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Ye eatH398 with the bloodH1818, and lift upH5375 your eyesH5869 toward your idolsH1544, and shedH8210 bloodH1818: and shall ye possessH3423 the landH776?
Ye standH5975 upon your swordH2719, ye workH6213 abominationH8441, and ye defileH2930 every oneH376 his neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802: and shall ye possessH3423 the landH776?
SayH559 thou thus unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; As I liveH2416, surely they that are in the wastesH2723 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719, and him that is in the openH6440 fieldH7704 will I giveH5414 to the beastsH2416 to be devouredH398, and they that be in the fortsH4679 and in the cavesH4631 shall dieH4191 of the pestilenceH1698. {to be…: Heb. to devour him}
For I will layH5414 the landH776 mostH4923 desolateH8077, and the pompH1347 of her strengthH5797 shall ceaseH7673; and the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478 shall be desolateH8074, that none shall pass throughH5674. {most…: Heb. desolation and desolation}
Then shall they knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I have laidH5414 the landH776 mostH4923 desolateH8077 because of all their abominationsH8441 which they have committedH6213.
Also, thou sonH1121 of manH120, the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971 still are talkingH1696 againstH681 thee by the wallsH7023 and in the doorsH6607 of the housesH1004, and speakH1696 oneH2297 to anotherH259, every oneH376 to his brotherH251, sayingH559, ComeH935, I pray you, and hearH8085 what is the wordH1697 that cometh forthH3318 from the LORDH3068. {against thee: of, of thee}
And they comeH935 unto thee as the peopleH5971 comethH3996, and they sitH3427 beforeH6440 thee as my peopleH5971, and they hearH8085 thy wordsH1697, but they will not doH6213 them: for with their mouthH6310 they shewH6213 much loveH5690, but their heartH3820 goethH1980 afterH310 their covetousnessH1215. {as the…: Heb. according to the coming of the people} {they sit…: or, my people sit before thee} {they shew…: Heb. they make loves, or, jests}
And, lo, thou art unto them as a very lovelyH5690 songH7892 of one that hath a pleasantH3303 voiceH6963, and can play wellH2895 on an instrumentH5059: for they hearH8085 thy wordsH1697, but they doH6213 them not. {a very…: Heb. a song of loves}
And when this cometh to passH935, (lo, it will comeH935,) then shall they knowH3045 that a prophetH5030 hath been amongH8432 them.

SonH1121 of manH120, I have madeH5414 thee a watchmanH6822 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: therefore hearH8085 the wordH1697 at my mouthH6310, and give them warningH2094 from me.
When I sayH559 unto the wickedH7563, Thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191; and thou givest him not warningH2094, nor speakestH1696 to warnH2094 the wickedH7563 from his wickedH7563 wayH1870, to save his lifeH2421; the same wickedH7563 man shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771; but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1245 at thine handH3027.
Yet if thou warnH2094 the wickedH7563, and he turnH7725 not from his wickednessH7562, nor from his wickedH7563 wayH1870, he shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771; but thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315.
AgainH7725, When a righteousH6662 man doth turnH7725 from his righteousnessH6664, and commitH6213 iniquityH5766, and I layH5414 a stumblingblockH4383 beforeH6440 him, he shall dieH4191: because thou hast not given him warningH2094, he shall dieH4191 in his sinH2403, and his righteousnessH6666 which he hath doneH6213 shall not be rememberedH2142; but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1245 at thine handH3027. {righteousness which: Heb. righteousnesses}
Nevertheless if thou warnH2094 the righteousH6662 man, that the righteousH6662 sinH2398 not, and he doth not sinH2398, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421, because he is warnedH2094; also thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315.
And thou shalt speakH1696 my wordsH1697 unto them, whether they will hearH8085, or whether they will forbearH2308: for they are most rebelliousH4805. {most…: Heb. rebellion}
The watchmenH8104 that go aboutH5437 the cityH5892 foundH4672 me: to whom I said, SawH7200 ye him whom my soulH5315 lovethH157?
But thou, sonH1121 of manH120, hearH8085 what I sayH1696 unto thee; Be notH1961 thou rebelliousH4805 like that rebelliousH4805 houseH1004: openH6475 thy mouthH6310, and eatH398 that I giveH5414 thee.
The watchmenH8104 that went aboutH5437 the cityH5892 foundH4672 me, they smoteH5221 me, they woundedH6481 me; the keepersH8104 of the wallsH2346 took awayH5375 my veilH7289 from me.
And MicaiahH4321 saidH559, As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, what the LORDH3068 saithH559 unto me, that will I speakH1696.
I have setH6485 watchmenH8104 upon thy wallsH2346, O JerusalemH3389, which shall neverH8548 hold their peaceH2814 dayH3117 nor nightH3915: ye that make mentionH2142 of the LORDH3068, keep not silenceH1824, {make…: or, are the LORD's remembrancers}
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto him, How many timesH6471 shall I adjureH7650 thee that thou tellH1696 me nothing but that which is trueH571 in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068?
And he saidH559, I sawH7200 all IsraelH3478 scatteredH6327 upon the hillsH2022, as sheepH6629 that have not a shepherdH7462: and the LORDH3068 saidH559, These have no masterH113: let them returnH7725 every manH376 to his houseH1004 in peaceH7965.
And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto JehoshaphatH3092, Did I not tellH559 thee that he would prophesyH5012 no goodH2896 concerning me, but evilH7451?
And he saidH559, HearH8085 thou therefore the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068: I sawH7200 the LORDH3068 sittingH3427 on his throneH3678, and all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 standingH5975 by him on his right handH3225 and on his leftH8040.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Who shall persuadeH6601 AhabH256, that he may go upH5927 and fallH5307 at RamothgileadH7433+H1568? And one saidH559 on this mannerH3541, and another saidH559 on that mannerH3541. {persuade: or, deceive}
And there came forthH3318 a spiritH7307, and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, I will persuadeH6601 him.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, Wherewith? And he saidH559, I will go forthH3318, and I will be a lyingH8267 spiritH7307 in the mouthH6310 of all his prophetsH5030. And he saidH559, Thou shalt persuadeH6601 him, and prevailH3201 also: go forthH3318, and doH6213 so.
Now therefore, behold, the LORDH3068 hath putH5414 a lyingH8267 spiritH7307 in the mouthH6310 of all these thy prophetsH5030, and the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 evilH7451 concerning thee.
But ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of ChenaanahH3668 went nearH5066, and smoteH5221 MicaiahH4321 on the cheekH3895, and saidH559, Which wayH335 wentH5674 the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 from me to speakH1696 unto thee?
And MicaiahH4321 saidH559, Behold, thou shalt seeH7200 in that dayH3117, when thou shalt goH935 into an innerH2315 chamberH2315 to hideH2247 thyself. {into…: or, from chamber to chamber: Heb. a chamber in a chamber}
And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, TakeH3947 MicaiahH4321, and carry him backH7725 unto AmonH526 the governorH8269 of the cityH5892, and to JoashH3101 the king'sH4428 sonH1121;
And sayH559, Thus saithH559 the kingH4428, PutH7760 this fellow in the prisonH1004+H3608, and feedH398 him with breadH3899 of afflictionH3906 and with waterH4325 of afflictionH3906, until I comeH935 in peaceH7965.
And MicaiahH4321 saidH559, If thou returnH7725 at allH7725 in peaceH7965, the LORDH3068 hath not spokenH1696 by me. And he saidH559, HearkenH8085, O peopleH5971, every one of you.
I have setH5414 thee for a towerH969 and a fortressH4013 among my peopleH5971, that thou mayest knowH3045 and tryH974 their wayH1870.
And what causeH7379 soever shall comeH935 to you of your brethrenH251 that dwellH3427 in their citiesH5892, between bloodH1818 and bloodH1818, between lawH8451 and commandmentH4687, statutesH2706 and judgmentsH4941, ye shall even warnH2094 them that they trespassH816 not against the LORDH3068, and so wrathH7110 come upon you, and upon your brethrenH251: thisH3541 doH6213, and ye shall not trespassH816.
For there shall beH3426 a dayH3117, that the watchmenH5341 upon the mountH2022 EphraimH669 shall cryH7121, AriseH6965 ye, and let us go upH5927 to ZionH6726 unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430.
Thou therefore gird upH247 thy loinsH4975, and ariseH6965, and speakH1696 unto them all that I commandH6680 thee: be not dismayedH2865 at their facesH6440, lest I confoundH2865 thee beforeH6440 them. {confound: or, break to pieces}
The bestH2896 of them is as a brierH2312: the most uprightH3477 is sharper than a thorn hedgeH4534: the dayH3117 of thy watchmenH6822 and thy visitationH6486 comethH935; now shall be their perplexityH3998.
The prophetH5030 that hath a dreamH2472, let him tellH5608 a dreamH2472; and he that hath my wordH1697, let him speakH1696 my wordH1697 faithfullyH571. What is the chaffH8401 to the wheatH1250? saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {that hath a dream: Heb. with whom is, etc}
AndG2532 heG846 gaveG1325 someG3303, apostlesG652; andG1161 some, prophetsG4396; andG1161 some, evangelistsG2099; andG1161 some, pastorsG4166 andG2532 teachersG1320;
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; StandH5975 in the courtH2691 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, and speakH1696 unto all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, which comeH935 to worshipH7812 in the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, all the wordsH1697 that I commandH6680 thee to speakH1696 unto them; diminishH1639 not a wordH1697:
ObeyG3982 them that have the ruleG2233 over youG5216, andG2532 submit yourselvesG5226: forG1063 theyG846 watchG69 forG5228 yourG5216 soulsG5590, asG5613 they that must giveG591 accountG3056, thatG2443 they may doG4160 itG5124 withG3326 joyG5479, andG2532 notG3361 with griefG4727: forG1063 thatG5124 is unprofitableG255 for youG5213. {have…: or, guide}
GoG4198, standG2476 andG2532 speakG2980 inG1722 the templeG2411 to the peopleG2992 allG3956 the wordsG4487 of thisG5026 lifeG2222.
And howG5613 I kept backG5288 nothingG3762 that was profitableG4851 unto you, butG3361 have shewedG312 youG5213, andG2532 have taughtG1321 youG5209 publicklyG1219, andG2532 fromG2596 house to houseG3624,
WhereforeG1352 I takeG3143 youG5213 to recordG3143 thisG1722+G4594 dayG2250, thatG3754 IG1473 am pureG2513 fromG575 the bloodG129 of allG3956 men.
ForG1063 I haveG5288 notG3756+G3361 shunnedG5288 to declareG312 unto youG5213 allG3956 the counselG1012 of GodG2316.
ForG1063 IG1473 have receivedG3880 ofG575 the LordG2962 that whichG3739 alsoG2532 I deliveredG3860 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 the same nightG3571 inG1722 whichG3739 he was betrayedG3860 tookG2983 breadG740:
ForG1063 I deliveredG3860 unto youG5213 first of allG1722+G4413 that whichG3739 IG3880 alsoG2532 receivedG3880, howG3754 that ChristG5547 diedG599 forG5228 ourG2257 sinsG266 accordingG2596 to the scripturesG1124;
WhomG3739 weG2249 preachG2605, warningG3560 everyG3956 manG444, andG2532 teachingG1321 everyG3956 manG444 inG1722 allG3956 wisdomG4678; thatG2443 we may presentG3936 everyG3956 manG444 perfectG5046 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:
WhereuntoG1519+G3739 IG2872 alsoG2532 labourG2872, strivingG75 according toG2596 hisG846 workingG1753, whichG3588 workethG1754 inG1722 meG1698 mightilyG1722+G1411.
FurthermoreG3063 thenG3767 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, andG2532 exhortG3870 you byG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, that asG2531 ye have receivedG3880 ofG3844 usG2257 howG4459 yeG5209 oughtG1163 to walkG4043 andG2532 to pleaseG700 GodG2316, soG2443 ye would aboundG4052 more and moreG3123. {beseech: or, request} {exhort: or, beseech}
