Description
Prophecy against the Prince of Tyre
Ezekiel
28
1
The word of the LORD came to me:
2
"Son of man, say to the prince of Tyre, 'This is what the sovereign LORD says: "'Your heart is proud and you said, "I am a god; I sit in the seat of gods, in the heart of the seas" - yet you are a man and not a god, though you think you are godlike.
3
Look, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is hidden from you.
4
By your wisdom and understanding you have gained wealth for yourself; you have amassed gold and silver in your treasuries.
5
By your great skill in trade you have increased your wealth, and your heart is proud because of your wealth.
6
"'Therefore this is what the sovereign LORD says: Because you think you are godlike,
7
I am about to bring foreigners against you, the most terrifying of nations. They will draw their swords against the grandeur made by your wisdom, and they will defile your splendor.
8
They will bring you down to the pit, and you will die violently in the heart of the seas.
9
Will you still say, "I am a god," before the one who kills you - though you are a man and not a god - when you are in the power of those who wound you?
10
You will die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of foreigners; for I have spoken, declares the sovereign LORD.'"
