Ezekiel 28

1 The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:1

2 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyre, Thus saith the Lord GOD Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a god, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art man, and not God, though thou didst set thine heart as the heart of God:RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:2

3 behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:3

4 by thy wisdom and by thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:4

5 by thy great wisdom and by thy traffic hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:5

6 therefore thus saith the Lord GOD Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:6

7 therefore behold, I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:7

8 They shall bring thee down to the pit; and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain, in the heart of the seas.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:8

9 Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou art man, and not God, in the hand of him that woundeth thee.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:9

10 Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GODRV1885 — Ezekiel 28:10

11 Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:11

12 Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:12

13 Thou wast in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, the topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was in thee; in the day that thou wast created they were prepared.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:13

14 Thou wast the anointed cherub that covereth: and I set thee, so that thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:14

15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till unrighteousness was found in thee.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:15

16 By the multitude of they traffic they filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore, have I cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God; and I have destroyed thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:16

17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I have cast thee to the ground, I have laid thee before kings, that they may behold thee.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:17

18 By the multitude of thine iniquities, in the unrighteousness of thy traffic, thou hast profaned thy sanctuaries; therefore have I brought forth a fire from the midst of thee, it hath devoured thee, and I have turned thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:18

19 All they that know thee among the peoples shall be astonished at thee: thou art become a terror, and thou shalt never be any more.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:19

20 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:20

21 Son of man, set thy face toward Zidon, and prophesy against it,RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:21

22 and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:22

23 For I will send into her pestilence and blood in her streets; and the wounded shall fall in the midst of her, with the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the Lord.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:23

24 And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor a grieving thorn of any that are round about them, that did despite unto them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GODRV1885 — Ezekiel 28:24

25 Thus saith the Lord GOD When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the nations, then shall they dwell in their own land which I gave my servant Jacob.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:25

26 And they shall dwell securely therein; yea, they shall build houses, and plant vineyards, and shall dwell securely; when I have executed judgments upon all those that do them despite round about them; and they shall know that I am the Lord their God.RV1885 — Ezekiel 28:26
