\v 1 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
|
|
\v 2 "Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Your heart is arrogant! You have said, "I am a god! I will sit in the seat of the gods in the heart of the seas!" Even though you are a man and not a god, you make your heart like the heart of a god;
|
|
\v 3 you think that you are wiser than Daniel, and that no secret amazes you!
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 4 You have made yourself wealthy with wisdom and skill, and obtained gold and silver in your treasuries!
|
|
\v 5 By great wisdom and by your trading, you have multiplied your wealth, so your heart is arrogant because of your wealth.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 6 Therefore, the Lord Yahweh says this: Because you have made your heart like the heart of a god,
|
|
\v 7 I will therefore bring foreigners against you, terrifying men from other nations. They will bring their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they will profane your splendor.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 8 They will send you down to the pit, and you will die the death of those who die in the heart of the seas.
|
|
\v 9 Will you truly say, "I am a god" to the face of one who kills you? You are a man and not God, and you will be in the hand of the one who pierces you.
|
|
\v 10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of foreigners, for I have declared it—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'"

\v 11 The word of Yahweh came again to me, saying,
|
|
\v 12 "Son of man, lift up a lament for the king of Tyre and say to him, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
|
|
\v 13 You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone covered you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made from gold. It was on the day you were created that they were prepared.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 14 I placed you on the holy mountain of God as the cherub I anointed to guard mankind. You were in the midst of the fiery stones where you walked about.
|
|
\v 15 You had integrity in your ways from the day you were created until injustice was found within you.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 16 Through your great trade you were filled with violence, and so you sinned. So I threw you out of the mountain of God, as a one who was defiled, and I destroyed you, guardian cherub, and drove you from among the fiery stones.
|
|
\v 17 Your heart was arrogant with your beauty; you ruined your wisdom because of your splendor. I have sent you down to the earth. I have placed you before kings so they may see you.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 18 Because of your many sins and your dishonest trade, you have defiled your holy places. So I have made fire come out from you; it will consume you. I will turn you into ashes on the earth in the sight of all who look at you.
|
|
\v 19 All the ones who knew you among the peoples will shudder at you; they will be horrified, and you will be no more forever.'"

\v 20 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
|
|
\v 21 "Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her.
|
|
\v 22 Say, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against you, Sidon! For I will be glorified in your midst so your people will know that I am Yahweh when I execute justice within you. I will be shown to be holy in you.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 23 I will send out a plague in you and blood in your streets, and the slain will fall in your midst. When the sword comes against you from all around, then you will know that I am Yahweh.
|
|
\v 24 Then there will no longer be pricking briars and painful thorns for the house of Israel from all those around her who despise her people, so they will know that I am the Lord Yahweh!'
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\p
|
|
\v 25 The Lord Yahweh says this, 'When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they were scattered, and when I am set apart among them, so the nations may see, then they will make their homes in the land I will give to my servant Jacob.
|
|
\v 26 Then they will live securely within her and build houses, plant vineyards, and live securely when I execute justice on all the ones who now despise them from all around; so they will know that I am Yahweh their God!'"
