Ezekiel 3:19-21

International Standard Version

¹⁹ If you warn the wicked person, and he doesn’t repent of his wickedness or of his wicked behavior,^[a] he’ll die in his sin, but you will have saved your own life.

²⁰ “When a righteous man abandons his righteousness to practice unrighteousness, I’ll set a stumbling block before him. He’ll die. If you don’t warn him, he’ll die in his sin and the righteous deeds that he had practiced won’t be remembered, but you’ll be held responsible for his death.^{[b] 21} If you warn the righteous person, so that he^[c] doesn’t commit sin, then he’ll live, since he had been warned. And you will have saved your life.”
