Ezekiel 33:4 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 33:4

Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh no
warning
Does not mind the notice given him; is incredulous of the danger he is in, or negligent of providing for his safety; fancies it is an alarm, and nothing else; and imagines there is no real danger, or what is a mere trifle; or, that the enemy is at a great distance, and it is time enough to provide for his defence: if the sword come and take him away;
those that kill with the sword, as the Targum, come suddenly on him, and take away his life, or carry him captive: his blood shall be upon his own head; the guilt of his slaughter, as the Targum; the sin will be his own; it must be brought in wilful murder; no blame can be laid upon any but himself; the watchman will be clear.

Ezekiel 33:4 In-Context

2 Fils de l'homme, parle aux enfants de ton peuple, et dis-leur: Lorsque je fais venir l'épée sur un pays, et que le peuple du pays prend dans son sein un homme et l'établit comme sentinelle, -
3 si cet homme voit venir l'épée sur le pays, sonne de la trompette, et avertit le peuple;
4 et si celui qui entend le son de la trompette ne se laisse pas avertir, et que l'épée vienne le surprendre, son sang sera sur sa tête.
5 Il a entendu le son de la trompette, et il ne s'est pas laissé avertir, son sang sera sur lui; s'il se laisse avertir, il sauvera son âme.
6 Si la sentinelle voit venir l'épée, et ne sonne pas de la trompette; si le peuple n'est pas averti, et que l'épée vienne enlever à quelqu'un la vie, celui-ci périra à cause de son iniquité, mais je redemanderai son sang à la sentinelle.
