Ezekiel 3:17 in Context — Ezekiel 3
15 J’arrivai à Thel-Abib, vers les exilés qui demeuraient près du fleuve du Kebar, et dans le lieu où ils se trouvaient; là je restai sept jours, stupéfait au milieu d’eux.
16 Au bout de sept jours, la parole de l’Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:
17 Fils de l’homme, je t’établis comme sentinelle sur la maison d’Israël. Tu écouteras la parole qui sortira de ma bouche, et tu les avertiras de ma part.
18 Quand je dirai au méchant: Tu mourras! Si tu ne l’avertis pas, si tu ne parles pas pour détourner le méchant de sa mauvaise voie et pour lui sauver la vie, ce méchant mourra dans son iniquité, et je te redemanderai son sang.
19 Mais si tu avertis le méchant, et qu’il ne se détourne pas de sa méchanceté et de sa mauvaise voie, il mourra dans son iniquité, et toi, tu sauveras ton âme.
