Ezekiel:28:1-19
web@Ezekiel:28:1 @ The word of Yahweh came again to me, saying,
web@Ezekiel:28:2 @ Son of man, tell the prince of Tyre, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said, I am a god, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet you are man, and not God, though you set your heart as the heart of God--
web@Ezekiel:28:3 @ behold, you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that is hidden from you;
web@Ezekiel:28:4 @ by your wisdom and by your understanding you have gotten yourself riches, and have gotten gold and silver into your treasures;
web@Ezekiel:28:5 @ by your great wisdom [and] by your traffic you have increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches--
web@Ezekiel:28:6 @ therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Because you have set your heart as the heart of God,
web@Ezekiel:28:7 @ therefore, behold, I will bring strangers on you, the terrible of the nations; and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they shall defile your brightness.
web@Ezekiel:28:8 @ They shall bring you down to the pit; and you shall die the death of those who are slain, in the heart of the seas.
web@Ezekiel:28:9 @ Will you yet say before him who kills you, I am God? but you are man, and not God, in the hand of him who wounds you.
web@Ezekiel:28:10 @ You shall die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, says the Lord Yahweh.
web@Ezekiel:28:11 @ Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
web@Ezekiel:28:12 @ Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and tell him, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: You seal up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
web@Ezekiel:28:13 @ You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire {or, lapis lazuli}, turquoise, and beryl. Gold work of tambourines and of pipes was in you. In the day that you were created they were prepared.
web@Ezekiel:28:14 @ You were the anointed cherub who covers: and I set you, [so that] you were on the holy mountain of God; you have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
web@Ezekiel:28:15 @ You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, until unrighteousness was found in you.
web@Ezekiel:28:16 @ By the abundance of your traffic they filled the midst of you with violence, and you have sinned: therefore I have cast you as profane out of the mountain of God; and I have destroyed you, covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
web@Ezekiel:28:17 @ Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; you have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your brightness: I have cast you to the ground; I have laid you before kings, that they may see you.
web@Ezekiel:28:18 @ By the multitude of your iniquities, in the unrighteousness of your traffic, you have profaned your sanctuaries; therefore have I brought forth a fire from the midst of you; it has devoured you, and I have turned you to ashes on the earth in the sight of all those who see you.
web@Ezekiel:28:19 @ All those who know you among the peoples shall be astonished at you: you have become a terror, and you shall nevermore have any being.
