Chapter 28

1 The word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 again unto413 me, saying,559

2 Son1121 of man,120 say559 unto the prince5057 of Tyrus,6865 Thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Because3282 thine heart3820 is lifted up,1361 and thou hast said,559 I589 am a God,410 I sit3427 in the seat4186 of God,430 in the midst3820 of the seas;3220 yet thou859 art a man,120 and not3808 God,410 though thou set5414 thine heart3820 as the heart3820 of God: 430

3 Behold,2009 thou859 art wiser2450 than Daniel;4480 1840 there is no3808 secret5640 that they can hide6004 from thee:

4 With thy wisdom2451 and with thine understanding8394 thou hast gotten6213 thee riches,2428 and hast gotten6213 gold2091 and silver3701 into thy treasures: 214

5 By thy great7230 wisdom2451 and by thy traffic7404 hast thou increased7235 thy riches,2428 and thine heart3824 is lifted up1361 because of thy riches: 2428

6 Therefore3651 thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Because3282 thou hast set5414 853 thine heart3820 as the heart3820 of God;430

7 Behold,2009 therefore3651 I will bring935 strangers2114 upon5921 thee, the terrible6184 of the nations:1471 and they shall draw7324 their swords2719 against5921 the beauty3308 of thy wisdom,2451 and they shall defile2490 thy brightness.3314

8 They shall bring thee down3381 to the pit,7845 and thou shalt die4191 the deaths4463 of them that are slain2491 in the midst3820 of the seas.3220

9 Wilt thou yet say559 559 before6440 him that slayeth2026 thee, I589 am God?430 but thou859 shalt be a man,120 and no3808 God,410 in the hand3027 of him that slayeth2490 thee.

10 Thou shalt die4191 the deaths4194 of the uncircumcised6189 by the hand3027 of strangers:2114 for3588 I589 have spoken1696 it, saith5002 the Lord136 GOD.3069

11 Moreover the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 unto413 me, saying,559

12 Son1121 of man,120 take up5375 a lamentation7015 upon5921 the king4428 of Tyrus,6865 and say559 unto him, Thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Thou859 sealest up2856 the sum,8508 full4392 of wisdom,2451 and perfect3632 in beauty.3308

13 Thou hast been1961 in Eden5731 the garden1588 of God;430 every3605 precious3368 stone68 was thy covering,4540 the sardius,124 topaz,6357 and the diamond,3095 the beryl,8658 the onyx,7718 and the jasper,3471 the sapphire,5601 the emerald,5306 and the carbuncle,1304 and gold:2091 the workmanship4399 of thy tabrets8596 and of thy pipes5345 was prepared3559 in thee in the day3117 that thou wast created.1254

14 Thou859 art the anointed4473 cherub3742 that covereth;5526 and I have set5414 thee so: thou wast1961 upon the holy6944 mountain2022 of God;430 thou hast walked up and down1980 in the midst8432 of the stones68 of fire.784

15 Thou859 wast perfect8549 in thy ways1870 from the day4480 3117 that thou wast created,1254 till5704 iniquity5766 was found4672 in thee.

16 By the multitude7230 of thy merchandise7404 they have filled4390 the midst8432 of thee with violence,2555 and thou hast sinned:2398 therefore I will cast thee as profane2490 out of the mountain4480 2022 of God:430 and I will destroy6 thee, O covering5526 cherub,3742 from the midst4480 8432 of the stones68 of fire.784

17 Thine heart3820 was lifted up1361 because of thy beauty,3308 thou hast corrupted7843 thy wisdom2451 by reason of5921 thy brightness:3314 I will cast7993 thee to5921 the ground,776 I will lay5414 thee before6440 kings,4428 that they may behold7200 thee.

18 Thou hast defiled2490 thy sanctuaries4720 by the multitude4480 7230 of thine iniquities,5771 by the iniquity5766 of thy traffic;7404 therefore will I bring forth3318 a fire784 from the midst4480 8432 of thee, it1931 shall devour398 thee, and I will bring5414 thee to ashes665 upon5921 the earth776 in the sight5869 of all3605 them that behold7200 thee.

19 All3605 they that know3045 thee among the people5971 shall be astonished8074 at5921 thee: thou shalt be1961 a terror,1091 and never369 shalt thou be any more.5704 5769

20 Again the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 unto413 me, saying,559

21 Son1121 of man,120 set7760 thy face6440 against413 Zidon,6721 and prophesy5012 against5921 it,

22 And say,559 Thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Behold,2009 I am against5921 thee, O Zidon;6721 and I will be glorified3513 in the midst8432 of thee: and they shall know3045 that3588 I589 am the LORD,3068 when I shall have executed6213 judgments8201 in her, and shall be sanctified6942 in her.

23 For I will send7971 into her pestilence,1698 and blood1818 into her streets;2351 and the wounded2491 shall be judged5307 in the midst8432 of her by the sword2719 upon5921 her on every side;4480 5439 and they shall know3045 that3588 I589 am the LORD.3068

24 And there shall be1961 no3808 more5750 a pricking3992 brier5544 unto the house1004 of Israel,3478 nor any grieving3510 thorn6975 of all4480 3605 that are round about5439 them, that despised7590 them; and they shall know3045 that3588 I589 am the Lord136 GOD.3069

25 Thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 When I shall have gathered6908 853 the house1004 of Israel3478 from4480 the people5971 among whom834 they are scattered,6327 and shall be sanctified6942 in them in the sight5869 of the heathen,1471 then shall they dwell3427 in5921 their land127 that834 I have given5414 to my servant5650 Jacob.3290

26 And they shall dwell3427 safely983 therein,5921 and shall build1129 houses,1004 and plant5193 vineyards;3754 yea, they shall dwell3427 with confidence,983 when I have executed6213 judgments8201 upon all3605 those that despise7590 them round about4480 5439 them; and they shall know3045 that3588 I589 am the LORD3068 their God.430

Chapter 28

1 THE word of the LORD came to me, saying,

2 Son of man, say to the king of Tyre, 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 heart of the seas; and yet you are a man, and not God, though you think of your heart as though it were the heart of God;

3 Perhaps you are wiser than Daniel, or you have seen hidden things by your wisdom;

4 With your understanding you have become powerful, and have gotten silver and gold into your treasures;

5 By your great wisdom and by your trade you have increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches;

6 Therefore thus says the LORD God: Because you think of your heart as though it were the heart of God;

7 Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon you, the mightiest of the nations, and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they shall defile your glory.

8 They shall bring you down to ruin, and you shall die the death of those who are slain in the midst of the seas.

9 Perhaps you will still say before those who slay you, I am God. Yet you are but a man, and no God, in the hands of those who slay you.

10 You shall die by the hand of uncircumcised strangers; for I have spoken it, says the LORD God.

11 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

12 Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the LORD God: You were the seal of wisdom and the crown of beauty.

13 You have been in Eden, the garden of God; you were decked with every precious stone, the sardius, the topaz, and the emerald, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire and pearls; and you have filled your treasuries with gold and your chests with precious stones; you had all of these things from the day you were created.

14 You were with the anointed cherub that shelters; and I have set you on the holy mountain of God; and you were safe in the midst of the stones of fire.

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 you have filled your land with iniquity and you have sinned; therefore I will cast you from the mountain of God; and I will destroy you, O sheltering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

17 Since your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, now your wisdom and your beauty are corrupted; I will cast you to the ground before kings, that you may be a spectacle before them.

18 By the multitude of your frauds, by the iniquity of your traffic, you have defiled your sanctuary; therefore I will bring forth a fire from the midst of you, and it shall devour you, and I will reduce you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all those who see you.

19 All those who know you among the people shall be astonished at you; you shall be brought to destruction, and you never shall be any more.

20 The word of the LORD 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 the people shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her and shall be sanctified in her.

23 For I will send her pestilence and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall fall in the midst of her by the sword that is upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

24 And there shall be no more a pricking brier to the house of Israel, nor a thorn to cause them pain from all that are round about them, and that curse them; and they shall know that I am the LORD God.

25 Thus says the LORD God: When I have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified by them in the sight of the nations, then shall they dwell in the land which I have given to my servant Jacob.

26 And they shall dwell in it safely, and shall build houses and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence after I have executed judgments on all those who hurt them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.

1 The word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 again unto413 me, saying,559

1 THE word of the LORD came to me, saying,

2 Son1121 of man,120 say559 unto the prince5057 of Tyrus,6865 Thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Because3282 thine heart3820 is lifted up,1361 and thou hast said,559 I589 am a God,410 I sit3427 in the seat4186 of God,430 in the midst3820 of the seas;3220 yet thou859 art a man,120 and not3808 God,410 though thou set5414 thine heart3820 as the heart3820 of God: 430

2 Son of man, say to the king of Tyre, 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 heart of the seas; and yet you are a man, and not God, though you think of your heart as though it were the heart of God;

3 Behold,2009 thou859 art wiser2450 than Daniel;4480 1840 there is no3808 secret5640 that they can hide6004 from thee:

3 Perhaps you are wiser than Daniel, or you have seen hidden things by your wisdom;

4 With thy wisdom2451 and with thine understanding8394 thou hast gotten6213 thee riches,2428 and hast gotten6213 gold2091 and silver3701 into thy treasures: 214

4 With your understanding you have become powerful, and have gotten silver and gold into your treasures;

5 By thy great7230 wisdom2451 and by thy traffic7404 hast thou increased7235 thy riches,2428 and thine heart3824 is lifted up1361 because of thy riches: 2428

5 By your great wisdom and by your trade you have increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches;

6 Therefore3651 thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Because3282 thou hast set5414 853 thine heart3820 as the heart3820 of God;430

6 Therefore thus says the LORD God: Because you think of your heart as though it were the heart of God;

7 Behold,2009 therefore3651 I will bring935 strangers2114 upon5921 thee, the terrible6184 of the nations:1471 and they shall draw7324 their swords2719 against5921 the beauty3308 of thy wisdom,2451 and they shall defile2490 thy brightness.3314

7 Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon you, the mightiest of the nations, and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they shall defile your glory.

8 They shall bring thee down3381 to the pit,7845 and thou shalt die4191 the deaths4463 of them that are slain2491 in the midst3820 of the seas.3220

8 They shall bring you down to ruin, and you shall die the death of those who are slain in the midst of the seas.

9 Wilt thou yet say559 559 before6440 him that slayeth2026 thee, I589 am God?430 but thou859 shalt be a man,120 and no3808 God,410 in the hand3027 of him that slayeth2490 thee.

9 Perhaps you will still say before those who slay you, I am God. Yet you are but a man, and no God, in the hands of those who slay you.

10 Thou shalt die4191 the deaths4194 of the uncircumcised6189 by the hand3027 of strangers:2114 for3588 I589 have spoken1696 it, saith5002 the Lord136 GOD.3069

10 You shall die by the hand of uncircumcised strangers; for I have spoken it, says the LORD God.

11 Moreover the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 unto413 me, saying,559

11 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

12 Son1121 of man,120 take up5375 a lamentation7015 upon5921 the king4428 of Tyrus,6865 and say559 unto him, Thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Thou859 sealest up2856 the sum,8508 full4392 of wisdom,2451 and perfect3632 in beauty.3308

12 Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the LORD God: You were the seal of wisdom and the crown of beauty.

13 Thou hast been1961 in Eden5731 the garden1588 of God;430 every3605 precious3368 stone68 was thy covering,4540 the sardius,124 topaz,6357 and the diamond,3095 the beryl,8658 the onyx,7718 and the jasper,3471 the sapphire,5601 the emerald,5306 and the carbuncle,1304 and gold:2091 the workmanship4399 of thy tabrets8596 and of thy pipes5345 was prepared3559 in thee in the day3117 that thou wast created.1254

13 You have been in Eden, the garden of God; you were decked with every precious stone, the sardius, the topaz, and the emerald, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire and pearls; and you have filled your treasuries with gold and your chests with precious stones; you had all of these things from the day you were created.

14 Thou859 art the anointed4473 cherub3742 that covereth;5526 and I have set5414 thee so: thou wast1961 upon the holy6944 mountain2022 of God;430 thou hast walked up and down1980 in the midst8432 of the stones68 of fire.784

14 You were with the anointed cherub that shelters; and I have set you on the holy mountain of God; and you were safe in the midst of the stones of fire.

15 Thou859 wast perfect8549 in thy ways1870 from the day4480 3117 that thou wast created,1254 till5704 iniquity5766 was found4672 in thee.

15 You were perfect in your ways, from the day that you were created till iniquity was found in you.

16 By the multitude7230 of thy merchandise7404 they have filled4390 the midst8432 of thee with violence,2555 and thou hast sinned:2398 therefore I will cast thee as profane2490 out of the mountain4480 2022 of God:430 and I will destroy6 thee, O covering5526 cherub,3742 from the midst4480 8432 of the stones68 of fire.784

16 By the multitude of your merchandise you have filled your land with iniquity and you have sinned; therefore I will cast you from the mountain of God; and I will destroy you, O sheltering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

17 Thine heart3820 was lifted up1361 because of thy beauty,3308 thou hast corrupted7843 thy wisdom2451 by reason of5921 thy brightness:3314 I will cast7993 thee to5921 the ground,776 I will lay5414 thee before6440 kings,4428 that they may behold7200 thee.

17 Since your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, now your wisdom and your beauty are corrupted; I will cast you to the ground before kings, that you may be a spectacle before them.

18 Thou hast defiled2490 thy sanctuaries4720 by the multitude4480 7230 of thine iniquities,5771 by the iniquity5766 of thy traffic;7404 therefore will I bring forth3318 a fire784 from the midst4480 8432 of thee, it1931 shall devour398 thee, and I will bring5414 thee to ashes665 upon5921 the earth776 in the sight5869 of all3605 them that behold7200 thee.

18 By the multitude of your frauds, by the iniquity of your traffic, you have defiled your sanctuary; therefore I will bring forth a fire from the midst of you, and it shall devour you, and I will reduce you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all those who see you.

19 All3605 they that know3045 thee among the people5971 shall be astonished8074 at5921 thee: thou shalt be1961 a terror,1091 and never369 shalt thou be any more.5704 5769

19 All those who know you among the people shall be astonished at you; you shall be brought to destruction, and you never shall be any more.

20 Again the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 unto413 me, saying,559

20 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,

21 Son1121 of man,120 set7760 thy face6440 against413 Zidon,6721 and prophesy5012 against5921 it,

21 Son of man, set your face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,

22 And say,559 Thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Behold,2009 I am against5921 thee, O Zidon;6721 and I will be glorified3513 in the midst8432 of thee: and they shall know3045 that3588 I589 am the LORD,3068 when I shall have executed6213 judgments8201 in her, and shall be sanctified6942 in her.

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 the people shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her and shall be sanctified in her.

23 For I will send7971 into her pestilence,1698 and blood1818 into her streets;2351 and the wounded2491 shall be judged5307 in the midst8432 of her by the sword2719 upon5921 her on every side;4480 5439 and they shall know3045 that3588 I589 am the LORD.3068

23 For I will send her pestilence and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall fall in the midst of her by the sword that is upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

24 And there shall be1961 no3808 more5750 a pricking3992 brier5544 unto the house1004 of Israel,3478 nor any grieving3510 thorn6975 of all4480 3605 that are round about5439 them, that despised7590 them; and they shall know3045 that3588 I589 am the Lord136 GOD.3069

24 And there shall be no more a pricking brier to the house of Israel, nor a thorn to cause them pain from all that are round about them, and that curse them; and they shall know that I am the LORD God.

25 Thus3541 saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 When I shall have gathered6908 853 the house1004 of Israel3478 from4480 the people5971 among whom834 they are scattered,6327 and shall be sanctified6942 in them in the sight5869 of the heathen,1471 then shall they dwell3427 in5921 their land127 that834 I have given5414 to my servant5650 Jacob.3290

25 Thus says the LORD God: When I have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified by them in the sight of the nations, then shall they dwell in the land which I have given to my servant Jacob.

26 And they shall dwell3427 safely983 therein,5921 and shall build1129 houses,1004 and plant5193 vineyards;3754 yea, they shall dwell3427 with confidence,983 when I have executed6213 judgments8201 upon all3605 those that despise7590 them round about4480 5439 them; and they shall know3045 that3588 I589 am the LORD3068 their God.430

26 And they shall dwell in it safely, and shall build houses and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence after I have executed judgments on all those who hurt them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.
