Ezekiel 3:20-22
New King James Version
20 “Again, when a (A)righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die; because you did not give him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood I will require at your hand. 21 Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man that the righteous should not sin, and he does not sin, he shall surely live because he took warning; also you will have delivered your soul.”
22 (B)Then the hand of the Lord was upon me there, and He said to me, “Arise, go out (C)into the plain, and there I shall talk with you.”

Lexham English Bible
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.”

New International Version
20 “Again, when a righteous person turns(A) from their righteousness and does evil, and I put a stumbling block(B) before them, they will die. Since you did not warn them, they will die for their sin. The righteous things that person did will not be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.(C) 21 But if you do warn the righteous person not to sin and they do not sin, they will surely live because they took warning, and you will have saved yourself.(D)”
22 The hand of the Lord(E) was on me there, and he said to me, “Get up and go(F) out to the plain,(G) and there I will speak to you.”
