Judgment Against the Prince of Tyre

1

The word of ADONAI came to me:

2

"Human being, tell the prince of Tzor that Adonai ELOHIM says: 'Because you are so proud and have said, "I am a god; I sit on the throne of God, surrounded by the sea"; yet you are a man, not God, even though you think that you think like God.

3

Sure, you are wiser than Dani'el! No secret can be hidden from you!

4

By your wisdom and discernment you have acquired wealth, you have gathered gold and silver into your treasuries.

5

By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, and it is because of your wealth that you have become so proud.

6

"Therefore Adonai ELOHIM says, 'Because you think that you think like God,

7

I will bring foreigners against you, the most barbarous of the nations, to draw their swords against your fine wisdom and defile your splendor.

8

They will lower you into the pit to die a violent death surrounded by the sea.

9

Will you still say, "I am God," to them who are about to kill you? You are a man, you are not God, in the hands of those who defile you.

10

You will die the deaths of the uncircumcised at the hands of foreigners. For I have spoken,' says Adonai ELOHIM."
