17 “‘You must not hate your brother in your heart.+ You should by all means reprove your associate,+ that you may not bear sin along with him.

6 “‘Now as regards the watchman, in case he sees the sword coming and he actually does not blow the horn+ and the people itself gets no warning at all and a sword comes and takes away from them soul, for its own error it itself must be taken away,+ but its blood I shall ask back from the hand of the watchman* himself.’+

17 Be obedient to those who are taking the lead among YOU*+ and be submissive,*+ for they are keeping watch over YOUR souls as those who will render an account;+ that they may do this with joy and not with sighing, for this would be damaging to YOU.+
