Ezekiel 28

1The word of Jehovah came again to me, saying:
2Son of man, say to the prince of Tyre, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because thy heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, "I am a god, I sit in the seat of a god, in the midst of the seas"; and though thou art man, not God, yet settest thy heart as the heart of a god,—
Ezekiel 28:9, Ezekiel 28:9, 2 Thessalonians 2:4, 2 Thessalonians 2:4, Isaiah 14:13
3behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret which can be hidden from thee;
Daniel 1:20, Daniel 1:20, Daniel 2:22, Daniel 2:22, Daniel 2:27
4by thy wisdom and by thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver in thy treasures;
Proverbs 18:11, Deuteronomy 8:17, Deuteronomy 8:18, Proverbs 23:4, Proverbs 23:5
5by thy great wisdom, by thy traffic, thou hast increased thy riches, and thy heart is lifted up because of thy wealth,—
Psalms 62:10, Psalms 52:7, Psalms 62:10, Psalms 52:7, Ezekiel 28:2
6therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because thou settest thy heart as the heart of a god, therefore,
Ezekiel 28:2, Ezekiel 28:2, Exodus 9:17, Exodus 9:17, Job 40:9
7behold, I will bring upon thee strangers, the terrible of the nations; and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.
Ezekiel 31:12, Ezekiel 31:12, Ezekiel 32:12, Ezekiel 30:11, Ezekiel 32:12
8They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the death of the slain, in the midst of the seas.
Ezekiel 27:34, Ezekiel 27:26, Ezekiel 27:27, Ezekiel 27:34, Ezekiel 27:26
9Wilt thou yet say, "I am a god," before him that slayeth thee? Thou shalt be man, and not God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee.
Ezekiel 28:2, Ezekiel 28:2, Psalms 82:7, Isaiah 31:3, Psalms 82:7
10Thou shalt die the death of the uncircumcised, by the hand of strangers; for I have spoken it, saith the Lord Jehovah.
Ezekiel 31:18, Ezekiel 31:18, Ezekiel 32:19, Ezekiel 32:19, 1 Samuel 17:36
11Moreover, the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
12Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah:—Thou wast a finished signet, Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty;
Ezekiel 19:1, Ezekiel 19:1, Ezekiel 26:17, Ezekiel 26:17, 2 Corinthians 1:22
13In Eden, the garden of God, thou didst dwell; Every precious stone was thy covering, The ruby, the topaz, and the diamond, The chrysolite, the onyx, and the jasper, The sapphire, the carbuncle, and the emerald, and gold. The workmanship of thy jewel-holes was within thee; On the day when thou wast born were they prepared.
Ezekiel 28:15, Ezekiel 28:15, Ezekiel 27:16, Genesis 2:8, Ezekiel 27:16
14Thou wast an outspread, covering cherub; I set thee upon the holy mountain of God; Thou didst walk in the midst of the stones of fire.
Isaiah 14:12, Isaiah 14:15, Isaiah 14:12, Isaiah 14:15, Exodus 30:26
15Thou wast prosperous in thy ways from the day that thou wast born Until iniquity was found in thee.
2 Peter 2:4, 2 Peter 2:4, Genesis 1:26, Genesis 1:27, Ezekiel 28:17
16Through the abundance of thy merchandise thou art full of injustice; And thou hast sinned; Therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God, And I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
1 Timothy 6:9, 1 Timothy 6:10, 1 Timothy 6:9, 1 Timothy 6:10, Habakkuk 2:17
17Thy heart was lifted up because of thy beauty; Thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy splendor; I will cast thee to the ground; I will give thee up to kings to be their gazing-stock.
Ezekiel 28:5, Ezekiel 28:5, Ezekiel 31:10, James 4:6, Ezekiel 28:2
18By the multitude of thine iniquities, by the unrighteousness of thy traffic, Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries. Therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, which shall devour thee, And I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth, In the sight of all them that behold thee.
Malachi 4:3, Malachi 4:3, Revelation 18:8, Revelation 18:8, Amos 1:9
19All they that know thee among the nations shall be astonished at thee; Thou art become a desolation, and shalt exist no more forever.
Ezekiel 26:21, Ezekiel 26:21, Revelation 18:21, Revelation 18:15, Revelation 18:19
20Again the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
21Son of man, set thy face against Sidon, and prophesy against her,
Ezekiel 6:2, Ezekiel 6:2, Genesis 10:15, Genesis 10:15, Ezekiel 25:2
22and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, O Sidon, and I will be glorified in the midst of thee, and they shall know that I am Jehovah, when I execute judgments in her, and am sanctified in her.
Ezekiel 39:13, Ezekiel 39:13, Ezekiel 20:41, Exodus 14:4, Exodus 14:17
23I will send upon her pestilence, and blood into her streets, and the wounded shall fall in the midst of her by the sword which is against her on every side; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.
Ezekiel 38:22, Ezekiel 38:22, Ezekiel 25:11, Ezekiel 26:6, Ezekiel 25:17
24And there shall be no more to the house of Israel a pricking brier, or a grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I am the Lord Jehovah.
Numbers 33:55, Joshua 23:13, Numbers 33:55, Joshua 23:13, 2 Corinthians 12:7
25Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: When I shall gather the house of Israel from the nations among which they are scattered, then shall I be sanctified through them in the sight of the nations, and they shall dwell in the land which I gave to my servant Jacob.
Jeremiah 32:37, Jeremiah 32:37, Ezekiel 20:41, Ezekiel 20:41, Ezekiel 36:28
26They shall dwell therein securely, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards, yea, they shall dwell securely when I have executed judgments on all that despised them round about; and they shall know that I am Jehovah, their God.
Ezekiel 28:24, Ezekiel 28:24, Ezekiel 28:22, Ezekiel 28:22, Ezekiel 34:25
