Ezekiel 28:3-12 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

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

4. by thy wisdom and by thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:

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

6. therefore thus saith the Lord GOD Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;

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.

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.

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.

10. Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD

11. Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

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.
