1 The word of the LORD [Yahweh] came again to me, saying,
2 Son of man, say to the prince of Tyrus, Thus says the Lord GOD; Because your heart [is] lifted up, and you have said, I [am] a God, I sit [in] the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet you [are] a man, and not God, though you set your heart as the heart of God:
3 Behold, you [are] wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from you:
4 With your wisdom and with your understanding you have gotten you riches, and have gotten gold and silver into your treasures:
5 By your great wisdom [and] by your traffic have you increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches:
6 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Because you have set your heart as the heart of God;
7 Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon you, the terrible of the nations: and they will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they will defile your brightness.
8 They will bring you down to the pit, and you will die the deaths of [them that are] slain in the midst of the seas.
9 Will you yet say before him that slays you, I [am] God? but you [will be] a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slays you.
10 You will die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken [it], says the Lord GOD.
11 Moreover the word of the LORD [Yahweh] came to me, saying,
12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say to him, Thus says the Lord GOD; You seal up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
13 You have been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone [was] your covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of your tabrets and of your pipes was prepared in you in the day that you were created.
14 You [are] the anointed cherub that covers; and I have set you [so]: you were upon the holy mountain of God; you have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
 - FIRE OF GOD
15 You [were] perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, till iniquity was found in you.
16 By the multitude of your merchandise they have filled the midst of you with violence, and you have sinned: therefore I will cast you as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy you, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
17 Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, you have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your brightness: I will cast you to the ground, I will lay you before kings, that they may behold you.
18 You have defiled your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities, by the iniquity of your traffic; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of you, it will devour you, and I will bring you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold you.
19 All they that know you among the people will be astonished at you: you will be a terror, and never [will] you [be] any more.
20 Again the word of the LORD [Yahweh] came to me, saying,
21 Son of man, set your face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,
22 And say, Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am] against you, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of you: and they will know that I [am] the LORD [Yahweh], when I will have executed judgments in her, and will be sanctified in her.
23 For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded will be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they will know that I [am] the LORD [Yahweh].
24 And there will be no more a pricking brier to the house of Israel, nor [any] grieving thorn of all [that are] round about them, that despised them; and they will know that I [am] the Lord GOD.
25 Thus says the Lord GOD; When I will have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and will be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then will they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob.
26 And they will dwell safely therein, and will build houses, and plant vineyards; yes, they will dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they will know that I [am] the LORD [Yahweh] their God.
