MLV(i)
2 Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, The lord Jehovah says thus: 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 man and not God, though you did set your heart as the heart of God.
3 Behold, you are wiser than Daniel. There is no secret that is hidden from you. 4 By your wisdom and by 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 you have increased your riches. And your heart is lifted up because of your riches.
6 Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Because you have set your heart as the heart of God, 7 therefore, behold, 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 death of those who are slain, in the heart of the seas.
9 Will you yet say before him who slays you, I am God? But you are man and not God, in the hand of him who wounds you.
