Ezekiel 28–30 Ezekiel 28–30 (Listen) Prophecy Against the Prince of Tyre 28 The word of the LORD came to me: 2 “Son of man, say to the prince of Tyre, Thus says the Lord GOD: “Because your heart is proud,<br /> and you have said, ‘I am a god,<br /> I sit in the seat of the gods,<br /> in the heart of the seas,’<br /> yet you are but a man, and no god,<br /> though you make your heart like the heart of a god—<br />3 you are indeed wiser than Daniel;<br /> no secret is hidden from you;<br />4 by your wisdom and your understanding<br /> you have made wealth for yourself,<br /> and have gathered gold and silver<br /> into your treasuries;<br />5 by your great wisdom in your trade<br /> you have increased your wealth,<br /> and your heart has become proud in your wealth—<br />6 therefore thus says the Lord GOD:<br /> Because you make your heart<br /> like the heart of a god,<br />7 therefore, behold, I will bring foreigners upon you,<br /> the most ruthless of the nations;<br />
