Ezekiel 28:2-8

2  a “Son of man, say to b the prince of Tyre, Thus says the Lord  God:

c “Because your heart is proud,
and d you have said, ‘I am a god,
I sit in the seat of the gods,
in the heart of the seas,’
yet e you are but a man, and no god,
f though you make your heart like the heart of a god—
 3  g you are indeed wiser h than i Daniel;
no secret is hidden from you;
 4 by your wisdom and your understanding
j you have made wealth for yourself,
and have gathered gold and silver
into your treasuries;
 5 by your great wisdom in your trade
you have increased your wealth,
and k your heart has become proud in your wealth—
 6 therefore thus says the Lord  God:
l Because you make your heart
like the heart of a god,
 7 therefore, behold, I will bring m foreigners upon you,
the most ruthless of the nations;
and they shall draw their swords against n the beauty of your wisdom
and defile o your splendor.
 8  p They shall thrust you down into the pit,
q and you shall die the death of the slain
in the heart of the seas.
