8. They will bring you down to the pit.You will die the death of those who are slainin the heart of the seas.
9. Will you yet say before him who kills you, ‘I am God’?But you are man, and not God,in the hand of him who wounds you.
10. You will die the death of the uncircumcisedby the hand of strangers;for I have spoken it,” says the Lord GOD.’”
11. Moreover the Lord’s word came to me, saying,
12. “Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and tell him, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD:“You were the seal of full measure,full of wisdom,and perfect in beauty.
13. You were in Eden,the garden of God.Every precious stone adorned you:ruby, topaz, emerald,chrysolite, onyx, jasper,sapphire, turquoise, and beryl.Gold work of tambourinesand of pipes was in you.They were prepared in the day that you were created.
14. You were the anointed cherub who covers.Then I set you up on the holy mountain of God.You have walked up and down in the middle of the stones of fire.
15. You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created,until unrighteousness was found in you.
16. By the abundance of your commerce, your insides were filled with violence,and you have sinned.Therefore I have cast you as profane out of God’s mountain.I have destroyed you, covering cherub,from the middle of the stones of fire.
17. Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty.You have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor.I have cast you to the ground.I have laid you before kings,that they may see you.
18. By the multitude of your iniquities,in the unrighteousness of your commerce,you have profaned your sanctuaries.Therefore I have brought out a fire from the middle of you.It has devoured you.I have turned you to ashes on the earthin the sight of all those who see you.
19. All those who know you among the peoples will be astonished at you.You have become a terror,and you will exist no more.”’”
