RF EZE 28:1 The Lesson of Tyre's Fate.
Again the message of the EVER-LIVING came to me to say:—
RF EZE 28:2 "Son of Adam! proclaim to the Prince of Tzur and say; Thus says the Mighty Lord, because of the pride of your heart, and your saying, 'I am a god! I sit with the gods in the heart of the seas!' Yet you are a man, and not a god!—although you have set your heart in the circle of the gods!
RF EZE 28:3 However, you are wiser than the judge of the gods! They cannot hide any secrets from you!
RF EZE 28:4 You have made yourself powerful by your sciences, and your knowledge, and enriched yourself in treasures of gold and silver! You have traded with your many sciences,
RF EZE 28:5 you have increased your power,—and your heart has risen with your power!
RF EZE 28:6 Therefore," thus says the Mighty Lord, "because you have set your heart like the heart of God,
RF EZE 28:7 I will bring cruel, tyrannical nations against you, who will draw their swords against your fine sciences, and spoil your splendour!
RF EZE 28:8 and you shall sink to death with a deadly wound in the heart of the sea!
RF EZE 28:9 Will you assert before your murderers, I am a god? Yet you will be a man, and not a god, to the hand wounding you! You shall die in contempt:—
RF EZE 28:10 you shall die by the hand of a foreigner;—for I, the EVER-LIVING, have decreed it!"
RF EZE 28:11 A Second Lament over Tyre.
Then the command of the EVER-LIVING came to me to say:—
RF EZE 28:12 "Son of Adam! raise a lament over the king of Tzur, and say to him, Thus says the Mighty Lord,
A Lamentation for Tyre.
"You perfect seal! full of science and spotless in beauty!
RF EZE 28:13 You once were in Eden the garden of God!
Every stone that is precious was fastened upon you,
Ruby, topaz, and diamond; the beryl and onyx;
Sapphire, emerald, and opal; in chasings of gold,
They were made, and set on you the day you were born!
RF EZE 28:14 And you were the Kerub, the holy protector,
And sat on the hill that was sacred to GOD:
You walked in the midst of the bright flashing jewels;
RF EZE 28:15 You were right in your path from the day of your birth! Until in yourself the corruption was formed;
RF EZE 28:16 Till your trades filled your breast with extortion and wrong!
So I flung you out from the mountain of Godhood,
And sent your guardian Spirit from among the bright gems!
RF EZE 28:17 From your beauty your heart rose; your science corrupted;
Notwithstanding your splendour I flung you to earth;
And before kings, I cast you, to show what you are!
RF EZE 28:18 "Your great passion for trade deeply wounded your virtues,
So I bring fire from you, consuming yourself!
And on earth lay your ashes, in sight of onlookers;
RF EZE 28:19 All nations who knew you will shudder above you!
You have been a terror; but shall be never more!"
RF EZE 28:20 The Doom of Zidon.
Then the command of the EVER-LIVING came to me to say:—
RF EZE 28:21 "Son of Adam! Set your face against Zidon, and proclaim to her,
RF EZE 28:22 and say, Thus says the Mighty Lord! Zidon! I am against you, and I will be honoured amongst you. Then they will know that I am the EVER-LIVING, when I execute justice on her; and I shall be respected in her.
RF EZE 28:23 For I will send a plague to her, and bloodshed in her streets, and the slain shall fall in her from the sword that assails her around;—then they will learn that I am the EVER-LIVING.
RF EZE 28:24 And there shall not be again an irritation from them, or painful briar to the House of Israel, from any around, but they will learn that I am the Mighty Lord!"
RF EZE 28:25 The Lesson from the fate of Israel's enemies.
The Mighty Lord declares thus:—"When I collect the House of Israel from the Peoples among whom I have scattered them, and have been reverenced by them in the sight of the heathen, and they are restored to the soil I gave to My servant Jacob,
RF EZE 28:26 upon which they shall dwell in safety, and build houses and plant vineyards, and rest secure,—when I have executed Justice on all around who despised them,—they will acknowledge that I am their EVER-LIVING God!"
