Ezekiel 28 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
2 Son of man say to the Prince of Tyre: Thus saith our Lord God: For that thy heart is elevated, and thou hast said: I am God, and I have sitten in the chair of God in the heart of the sea: whereas thou art a man, and not God: and hast given thy heart as the heart of God.
3 Lo thou art wiser than Daniel: every secret is not hid from thee.
4 In thy wisdom and thy prudence thou hast made thee strength: and hast gotten gold, and silver in thy treasures.
5 In the multitude of thy wisdom, & in thy merchandise thou hast multiplied strength to thee: and thy heart is elevated in thy strength.
6 Therefore thus saith our Lord God: For that thy heart is elevated as the heart of God:
7 therefore behold I will bring upon thee strangers, the strongest of the Gentiles: and they shall draw their swords upon the beauty of thy wisdom, and shall pollute thy comeliness.
8 They shall kill, and pluck thee down: and thou shalt die in the death of the slain in the heart of the sea.
9 Why, shalt thou speak saying: I am God, before them that kill thee: whereas thou art a man, and not God, in the hand of them that slay thee?
17 And thy heart was elevated in thy beauty: thou hast lost thy wisdom in thy beauty, I have cast thee to the earth: before the face of kings I have given thee, that they might behold thee.
