Bible Verses About Ministers: Shall be punished

And the watchman, when he seeth the sword coming in, And he hath not blown with a trumpet, And the people hath not been warned, And come in doth a sword, And taketh away of them--a soul, He in his iniquity is taken away, And his blood from the hand of the watchman I require.

And thou, son of man, A watchman I gave thee to the house of Israel, And thou hast heard from My mouth a word, And thou hast warned them from Me.

In My saying to the wicked, O wicked one--thou dost surely die, And thou hast not spoken to warn the wicked from his way, He--the wicked--in his iniquity doth die, And his blood from thy hand I require.

`And, if that evil servant may say in his heart, My Lord doth delay to come,

and may begin to beat the fellow-servants, and to eat and to drink with the drunken,

the lord of that servant will arrive in a day when he doth not expect, and in an hour of which he doth not know,

and will cut him off, and his portion with the hypocrites will appoint; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.
