Context of Ezekiel 28:19

17Your heart was filled with pride because of all your beauty. Your wisdom was corrupted by your love of splendor. So I threw you to the ground and exposed you to the curious gaze of kings. 18You defiled your sanctuaries with your many sins and your dishonest trade. So I brought fire out from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the sight of all who were watching. All who knew you are appalled at your fate. You have come to a terrible end, and you will exist no more.” 20Then another message came to me from the Lord: 21“Son of man, turn and face the city of Sidon and prophesy against it.

The prince of Tyre was destined to meet a terrible end and disappear (compare Ezekiel 26:21; 27:36).
