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.

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}
And mine handH3027 shall be upon the prophetsH5030 that seeH2374 vanityH7723, and that divineH7080 liesH3577: they shall not be in the assemblyH5475 of my peopleH5971, neither shall they be writtenH3789 in the writingH3791 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, neither shall they enterH935 into the landH127 of IsraelH3478; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LordH136 GODH3069. {assembly: or, secret, or, counsel}
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.
Behold, all soulsH5315 are mine; as the soulH5315 of the fatherH1, so also the soulH5315 of the sonH1121 is mine: the soulH5315 that sinnethH2398, it shall dieH4191.
Because, even because they have seducedH2937 my peopleH5971, sayingH559, PeaceH7965; and there was no peaceH7965; and one built upH1129 a wallH2434, and, loH2009, others daubedH2902 it with untemperedH8602 morter: {a wall: or, a slight wall}
Our fatherH1 diedH4191 in the wildernessH4057, and he was not inH8432 the companyH5712 of them that gathered themselves togetherH3259 against the LORDH3068 in the companyH5712 of KorahH7141; but diedH4191 in his own sinH2399, and had no sonsH1121.
If he begetH3205 a sonH1121 that is a robberH6530, a shedderH8210 of bloodH1818, and that doethH6213 the likeH251 to any oneH259 of these things, {robber: or, breaker up of an house} {that doeth…: or, that doeth to his brother besides any of these}
And that doethH6213 not any of those duties, but even hath eatenH398 upon the mountainsH2022, and defiledH2930 his neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802,
Hath oppressedH3238 the poorH6041 and needyH34, hath spoiledH1497 by violenceH1500, hath not restoredH7725 the pledgeH2258, and hath lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869 to the idolsH1544, hath committedH6213 abominationH8441,
Hath given forthH5414 upon usuryH5392, and hath takenH3947 increaseH8636: shall he then liveH2425? he shall not liveH2421: he hath doneH6213 all these abominationsH8441; he shall surelyH4191 dieH4191; his bloodH1818 shall be upon him. {blood: Heb. bloods}
For they have healedH7495 the hurtH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 slightlyH7043, sayingH559, PeaceH7965, peaceH7965; when there is no peaceH7965.
WhereforeG1352 I takeG3143 youG5213 to recordG3143 thisG1722+G4594 dayG2250, thatG3754 IG1473 am pureG2513 fromG575 the bloodG129 of allG3956 men.
As for his fatherH1, because he cruellyH6233 oppressedH6231, spoiledH1497 his brotherH251 by violenceH1499, and didH6213 that which is not goodH2896 amongH8432 his peopleH5971, lo, even he shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771.
Were they ashamedH3001 when they had committedH6213 abominationH8441? nay, they were not at allH954 ashamedH954, neither couldH3045 they blushH3637: therefore shall they fallH5307 among them that fallH5307: in the timeH6256 of their visitationH6486 they shall be cast downH3782, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
ForG1063 I haveG5288 notG3756+G3361 shunnedG5288 to declareG312 unto youG5213 allG3956 the counselG1012 of GodG2316.
The soulH5315 that sinnethH2398, it shall dieH4191. The sonH1121 shall not bearH5375 the iniquityH5771 of the fatherH1, neither shall the fatherH1 bearH5375 the iniquityH5771 of the sonH1121: the righteousnessH6666 of the righteousH6662 shall be upon him, and the wickednessH7564 of the wickedH7563 shall be upon him.
Then saidH559 I, AhH162, LordH136 GODH3069! behold, the prophetsH5030 sayH559 unto them, Ye shall not seeH7200 the swordH2719, neither shall ye have famineH7458; but I will giveH5414 you assuredH571 peaceH7965 in this placeH4725. {assured…: Heb. peace of truth}
Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, The prophetsH5030 prophesyH5012 liesH8267 in my nameH8034: I sentH7971 them not, neither have I commandedH6680 them, neither spakeH1696 unto them: they prophesyH5012 unto you a falseH8267 visionH2377 and divinationH7081, and a thing of noughtH457+H434, and the deceitH8649 of their heartH3820.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning the prophetsH5030 that prophesyH5012 in my nameH8034, and I sentH7971 them not, yet they sayH559, SwordH2719 and famineH7458 shall not be in this landH776; By swordH2719 and famineH7458 shall those prophetsH5030 be consumedH8552.
And the peopleH5971 to whom they prophesyH5012 shall be cast outH7993 in the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389 becauseH6440 of the famineH7458 and the swordH2719; and they shall have none to buryH6912 themH1992, them, their wivesH802, nor their sonsH1121, nor their daughtersH1323: for I will pourH8210 their wickednessH7451 upon them.
But of the treeH6086 of the knowledgeH1847 of goodH2896 and evilH7451, thou shalt not eatH398 of it: for in the dayH3117 that thou eatestH398 thereof thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191. {thou shalt surely…: Heb. dying thou shalt die}
Though handH3027 join in handH3027, the wickedH7451 shall not be unpunishedH5352: but the seedH2233 of the righteousH6662 shall be deliveredH4422.
But it shall not be wellH2896 with the wickedH7563, neither shall he prolongH748 his daysH3117, which are as a shadowH6738; because he fearethH3373 not beforeH6440 GodH430.
