The word[H1697] of the LORD[H3068] came again unto me, saying[H559],
2Son[H1121] of man[H120], say[H559] unto the prince[H5057] of Tyrus[H6865], Thus saith[H559] the Lord[H136]GOD[H3069]; Because thine heart[H3820] is lifted up[H1361], and thou hast said[H559], I am a God[H430], I sit[H3427] in the seat[H4186] of God[H430], in the midst[H3820] of the seas[H3220]; yet thou art a man[H120], and not God[H430], though thou set[H5414] thine heart[H3820] as the heart[H3820] of God[H430]:
3
Behold, thou art wiser[H2450] than Daniel[H1840]; there is no secret[H5640] that they can hide[H6004] from thee:
4
With thy wisdom[H2451] and with thine understanding[H8394] thou hast gotten[H6213] thee riches[H2428], and hast gotten[H6213]gold[H2091] and silver[H3701] into thy treasures[H214]:
5
By thy great[H7230]wisdom[H2451] and by thy traffick[H7404] hast thou increased[H7235] thy riches[H2428], and thine heart[H3824] is lifted up[H1361] because of thy riches[H2428]:
6
Therefore thus saith[H559] the Lord[H136]GOD[H3069]; Because thou hast set[H5414] thine heart[H3820] as the heart[H3824] of God[H430];
7
Behold, therefore I will bring[H935]strangers[H2114] upon thee, the terrible[H6184] of the nations[H1471]: and they shall draw[H7324] their swords[H2719] against the beauty[H3308] of thy wisdom[H2451], and they shall defile[H2490] thy brightness[H3314].
8
They shall bring thee down[H3381] to the pit[H7845], and thou shalt die[H4191] the deaths[H4463] of them that are slain[H2491] in the midst[H3820] of the seas[H3220].
9
Wilt thou yet[H559]say[H559]before[H6440] him that slayeth[H2026] thee, I am God?[H430] but thou shalt be a man[H120], and no God[H410], in the hand[H3027] of him that slayeth[H2490] thee.
10
Thou shalt die[H4191] the deaths[H4194] of the uncircumcised[H6189] by the hand[H3027] of strangers[H2114]: for I have spoken[H1696] it, saith[H5002] the Lord[H136]GOD[H3069].
11
Moreover the word[H1697] of the LORD[H3068] came unto me, saying[H559],
12Son[H1121] of man[H120], take up[H5375] a lamentation[H7015] upon the king[H4428] of Tyrus[H6865], and say[H559] unto him, Thus saith[H559] the Lord[H136]GOD[H3069]; Thou sealest up[H2856] the sum[H8508], full[H4392] of wisdom[H2451], and perfect[H3632] in beauty[H3308].
13
Thou hast been in Eden[H5731] the garden[H1588] of God[H430]; every precious[H3368]stone[H68] was thy covering[H4540], the sardius[H124], topaz[H6357], and the diamond[H3095], the beryl[H8658], the onyx[H7718], and the jasper[H3471], the sapphire[H5601], the emerald[H5306], and the carbuncle[H1304], and gold[H2091]: the workmanship[H4399] of thy tabrets[H8596] and of thy pipes[H5345] was prepared[H3559] in thee in the day[H3117] that thou wast created[H1254].
14
Thou art the anointed[H4473]cherub[H3742] that covereth[H5526]; and I have set[H5414] thee so: thou wast upon the holy[H6944]mountain[H2022] of God[H430]; thou hast walked up and down[H1980] in the midst[H8432] of the stones[H68] of fire[H784].
15
Thou wast perfect[H8549] in thy ways[H1870] from the day[H3117] that thou wast created[H1254], till iniquity[H5766] was found[H4672] in thee.
16
By the multitude[H7230] of thy merchandise[H7404] they have filled[H4390] the midst[H8432] of thee with violence[H2555], and thou hast sinned[H2398]: therefore I will cast thee as profane[H2490] out of the mountain[H2022] of God[H430]: and I will destroy[H6] thee, O covering[H5526]cherub[H3742], from the midst[H8432] of the stones[H68] of fire[H784].
17
Thine heart[H3820] was lifted up[H1361] because of[H5921] thy beauty[H3308], thou hast corrupted[H7843] thy wisdom[H2451] by reason of[H5921] thy brightness[H3314]: I will cast[H7993] thee to the ground[H776], I will lay[H5414] thee before[H6440]kings[H4428], that they may behold[H7200] thee.
18
Thou hast defiled[H2490] thy sanctuaries[H4720] by the multitude[H7230] of thine iniquities[H5771], by the iniquity[H5766] of thy traffick[H7404]; therefore will I bring[H5414]forth[H3318] a fire[H784] from the midst[H8432] of thee, it shall devour[H398] thee, and I will bring[H5414] thee to ashes[H665] upon the earth[H776] in the sight[H5869] of all them that behold[H7200] thee.
19
All they that know[H3045] thee among the people[H5971] shall be astonished[H8074] at thee: thou shalt be a terror[H1091], and never[H369] shalt thou be any more[H5704].
20
Again the word[H1697] of the LORD[H3068] came unto me, saying[H559],
21Son[H1121] of man[H120], set[H7760] thy face[H6440] against Zidon[H6721], and prophesy[H5012] against it,
22
And say[H559], Thus saith[H559] the Lord[H136]GOD[H3069]; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon[H6721]; and I will be glorified[H3513] in the midst[H8432] of thee: and they shall know[H3045] that I am the LORD[H3068], when I shall have executed[H6213]judgments[H8201] in her, and shall be sanctified[H6942] in her.
23
For I will send[H7971] into her pestilence[H1698], and blood[H1818] into her streets[H2351]; and the wounded[H2491] shall be judged[H5307] in the midst[H8432] of her by the sword[H2719] upon her on every side[H5439]; and they shall know[H3045] that I am the LORD[H3068].
24
And there shall be no more a pricking[H3992]brier[H5544] unto the house[H1004] of Israel[H3478], nor any grieving[H3510]thorn[H6975] of all that are round about[H5439] them, that despised[H7590] them; and they shall know[H3045] that I am the Lord[H136]GOD[H3069].
25
Thus saith[H559] the Lord[H136]GOD[H3069]; When I shall have gathered[H6908] the house[H1004] of Israel[H3478] from the people[H5971] among whom they are scattered[H6327], and shall be sanctified[H6942] in them in the sight[H5869] of the heathen[H1471], then shall they dwell[H3427] in their land[H127] that I have given[H5414] to my servant[H5650]Jacob[H3290].
26
And they shall dwell[H3427]safely[H983] therein, and shall build[H1129]houses[H1004], and plant[H5193]vineyards[H3754]; yea, they shall dwell[H3427] with confidence[H983], when I have executed[H6213]judgments[H8201] upon all those that despise[H7590] them round about[H5439] them; and they shall know[H3045] that I am the LORD[H3068] their God[H430].
