Ezekiel 28:2-9

2“Son of man, say to the prince of Tyre, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Because your heart is lifted up, And you say, ‘I am a god, I sit in the seat of gods, In the midst of the seas,’ Yet you are a man, and not a god, Though you set your heart as the heart of a god

3(Behold, you are wiser than Daniel! There is no secret that can be hidden from you!

4With your wisdom and your understanding You have gained riches for yourself, And gathered gold and silver into your treasuries;

5By your great wisdom in trade you have increased your riches, And your heart is lifted up because of your riches),”

6‘Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Because you have set your heart as the heart of a god,

7Behold, therefore, I will bring strangers against you, The most terrible of the nations; And they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, And defile your splendor.

8They shall throw you down into the Pit, And you shall die the death of the slain In the midst of the seas.

9“Will you still say before him who slays you, ‘I am a god’? But you shall be a man, and not a god, In the hand of him who slays you.
