Ezekiel 28
Revised Version 1895
1The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 againH1961 unto meH413, sayingH559, 2SonH1121 of manH120, sayH559 unto the princeH5057 of TyreH6865, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH430: BecauseH3282 thine heartH3820 is lifted upH5414, and thou hast saidH559, I am a godH430, I sitH3427 in the seatH4186 of GodH430, in the midstH3820 of the seasH3220; yet thou art manH120, and notH3808 GodH430, though thou didst setH5414 thine heartH3820 as the heartH3820 of GodH430: 3beholdH2009, thou art wiserH2450 thanH3808 DanielH1840; there is noH3808 secretH5640 that they canH3808 hide from thee: 4by thy wisdomH2451 and by thine understandingH8394 thou hast gotten thee richesH2428, and hast gotten goldH2091 and silverH3701 intoH3701 thy treasuresH214: 5by thy greatH7230 wisdomH2451 and by thy traffic hast thou increasedH7230 thy richesH2428, and thine heartH3824 is lifted up becauseH7230 of thy richesH2428: 6therefore thusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH430: BecauseH3282 thou hast setH5414 thine heartH3820 as the heartH3820 of GodH430; 7therefore beholdH2005, I will bringH935 strangersH2114 uponH5921 thee, the terrible of the nationsH1471: and they shall draw their swordsH2719 againstH5921 the beautyH3308 of thy wisdomH2451, and they shall defileH2490 thy brightness. 8They shall bringH3381 thee downH3381 to the pitH7845; and thou shalt dieH4191 the deaths of them that are slainH2491, in the heartH3820 of the seasH3220. 9Wilt thou yet sayH559 beforeH6440 him that slayeth thee, I am GodH430? but thou art manH120, and notH3808 GodH430, in the handH3027 of him that woundeth thee. 10Thou shalt dieH4191 the deaths of the uncircumcisedH6189 by the handH3027 of strangersH2114: for I have spokenH1696 it, saith the LordH136 GODH136. 11MoreoverH1961 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 unto meH413, sayingH559, 12SonH1121 of manH120, takeH5375 upH5375 a lamentationH7015 for the kingH4428 of TyreH6865, and sayH559 unto him, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136: Thou sealest upH5375 the sum, fullH4392 of wisdomH2451, and perfectH3632 in beautyH3308. 13Thou wast in EdenH5731 the gardenH1588 of GodH430; everyH3605 preciousH3368 stoneH68 was thy coveringH4540, the sardius, the topazH6357, and the diamondH3095, the berylH8658, the onyxH7718, and the jasperH3471, the sapphireH5601, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and goldH2091: the workmanshipH4399 of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was in thee; in the dayH3117 that thou wast createdH1254 they were preparedH3559. 14Thou wast the anointedH4473 cherubH3742 that covereth: and I setH5414 thee, soH1980 that thou wast uponH1961 the holyH6944 mountainH2022 of GodH430; thou hast walkedH1980 upH5414 and downH1980 in the midstH8432 of the stonesH68 of fireH784. 15Thou wast perfectH8549 in thy waysH1870 from the dayH3117 that thou wast createdH1254, tillH5704 unrighteousnessH5766 was foundH4672 in thee. 16By the multitudeH7230 of they traffic they filledH4390 the midstH8432 of thee with violenceH2555, and thou hast sinnedH2398: therefore, have I cast thee as profaneH2490 outH6 of the mountainH2022 of GodH430; and I have destroyedH6 thee, O covering cherubH3742, from the midstH8432 of the stonesH68 of fireH784. 17Thine heartH3820 was lifted upH7200 becauseH5921 of thy beautyH3308, thou hast corruptedH7843 thy wisdomH2451 by reasonH5921 of thy brightness: I have castH7993 thee to the groundH776, I have laidH5414 thee beforeH6440 kingsH4428, that they may beholdH7200 thee. 18By the multitudeH7230 of thine iniquitiesH5771, in the unrighteousnessH5766 of thy traffic, thou hast profanedH2490 thy sanctuariesH4720; therefore have I broughtH3318 forthH3318 a fireH784 from the midstH8432 of thee, it hath devouredH398 thee, and I have turnedH5414 thee to ashesH665 uponH5921 the earthH776 in the sightH5869 of allH3605 them that beholdH7200 thee. 19AllH3605 they that knowH3045 thee among the peoplesH5971 shall be astonishedH8074 at thee: thou art becomeH1961 a terrorH1091, and thou shalt neverH369 be anyH3605 moreH369. 20And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 unto meH413, sayingH559, 21SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 towardH413 Zidon, and prophesyH5012 againstH5921 it, 22and sayH559, ThusH3541 saith the LordH3068 GODH3068: BeholdH2005, I am againstH5921 thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorifiedH3513 in the midstH8432 of thee: and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I shall have executed judgmentsH8201 in herH5921, and shall be sanctifiedH6942 in herH5921. 23For I will sendH7971 intoH8432 herH7971 pestilenceH1698 and bloodH1818 in herH7971 streetsH2351; and the woundedH2491 shall fallH5307 in the midstH8432 of herH7971, with the swordH2719 uponH5921 herH7971 on everyH5439 sideH5439; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068. 24And there shall be noH3808 moreH5750 a pricking brierH5544 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, norH3808 a grieving thornH6975 of anyH3605 that are roundH5439 aboutH1961 them, that didH3808 despite unto them; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LordH136 GODH136. 25ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136: When I shall have gatheredH6908 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 from the peoplesH5971 among whomH834 they are scatteredH6327, and shall be sanctifiedH6942 in them in the sightH5869 of the nationsH1471, then shall they dwellH3427 in their ownH5869 landH127 whichH834 I gaveH5414 my servantH5650 JacobH3290. 26And they shall dwellH3427 securelyH983 therein; yeaH3588, they shall buildH1129 housesH1004, and plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and shall dwellH3427 securelyH983; when I have executed judgmentsH8201 uponH5921 allH3605 thoseH3605 that doH6213 them despiteH5921 roundH5439 aboutH5439 them; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
