20 And when the righteous turns from his righteousness[a] and does injustice, and I place[b] a stumbling block before him,[c] he will die, for you did not warn him. Because of his sin he will die, and his righteousness[d] that he did will not be remembered, and his blood I shall seek from your hand. 21 And if you warn him, the righteous, not to sin, and the righteous does not sin, surely he will live, for he heeded a warning. And you will have saved your life.”[e]

22 And the hand of Yahweh was on me there, and he said to me, “Rise up, go out to the valley, and there I will speak with you.”
