For so has the Lord said to me, Go, let a watchman be placed; let him give word of what he sees:
And the watchman gave news of it to the king. And the king said, If he is coming by himself, then he has news. And the man was travelling quickly, and came near.
The watchmen who go about the town came by me; to them I said, Have you seen him who is my heart's desire?
I have put watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they will not keep quiet day or night: you who are the Lord's recorders, take no rest,
Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the children of Israel: so give ear to the word of my mouth, and give them word from me of their danger.
