The Prophet Ezekiel

Unlocked Literal Bible :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 28 -

1
Then the word of Yahweh came to me and said,
2
“Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, ’Lord Yahweh says this: Your heart is arrogant! You have said, “I am a god! I will sit in the seat of the gods in the heart of the seas!” Even though you are a man and not a god, you make your heart like the heart of a god;
3
you think that you are wiser than Daniel, and that no secret amazes you!
4
You have made yourself wealthy with wisdom and skill, and obtained gold and silver in your treasuries!
5
By great wisdom and by your trading, you have multiplied your wealth, so your heart is arrogant because of your wealth.
6
Therefore, Lord Yahweh says this: Because you have made your heart like the heart of a god,
7
I will therefore bring foreigners against you, terrifying men from other nations. They will bring their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they will profane your splendor.
8
They will send you down to the pit, and you will die the death of those who die in the heart of the seas.
9
Will you truly say, “I am a god” to the face of one who kills you? You are a man and not God, and you will be in the hand of the one who pierces you.
10
You will die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of foreigners, for I have declared it-this is Lord Yahweh’s declaration.’”

A Lament for the King of Tyre

11
The word of Yahweh came again to me and said,
12
“Son of man, lift up a lament for the king of Tyre and say to him, ’Lord Yahweh says this: You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
13
You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone covered you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made from gold. It was on the day you were created that they were prepared.
14
I placed you on the holy mountain of God as the cherub I anointed to guard mankind. You were in the midst of the fiery stones where you walked about.
15
You had integrity in your ways from the day you were created until injustice was found within you.
16
In the large volume of your trading you were filled with violence, so you sinned. I have thrown you as defiled from the mountain of God and destroyed you, cherub guard, from among the fiery stones.
17
Your heart was arrogant with your beauty; you ruined your wisdom because of your splendor. I have sent you down to the earth. I have placed you before kings so they may see you.
18
Because of your many sins and your dishonest trade, you have defiled your holy places. So I have made fire come out from you; it will consume you. I will turn you into ashes on the earth in the sight of all who look at you.
19
All the ones who knew you among the peoples will shudder at you; they will be horrified, and you will never exist again.’”

A Prophecy against Sidon

20
Then the word of Yahweh came to me and said,
21
“Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her.
22
Say, ’Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against you, Sidon! For I will be glorified in your midst so your people will know that I am Yahweh when I execute justice within you. I will be shown to be holy in you.
23
I will send out a plague in you and blood in your streets, and the slain will fall in your midst. When the sword comes against you from all around, then you will know that I am Yahweh.
24
Then there will no longer be pricking briars and painful thorns for the house of Israel from all those around her who despise her people, so they will know that I am Lord Yahweh!’

The Restoration of Israel

(Jeremiah 30:1–17)
25
Lord Yahweh says this, ’When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they were scattered, and when I am set apart among them, so the nations may see. Then they will make their homes in the land I will give to my servant Jacob.
26
Then they will live securely within her and build houses, plant vineyards, and live securely when I execute justice on all the ones who now despise them from all around; so they will know that I am Yahweh their God!’”
1
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2
Son of man, tell the prince of Tyre, ‘The Lord GOD says:Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said, ‘I am a god, I sit in the seat of God, in the middle of the seas;’ yet you are man, and no god, though you set your heart as the heart of a 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 yourself riches, and have gotten gold and silver into your treasuries.
5
By your great wisdom and by your trading you have increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches—”
6
“‘therefore the Lord GOD says:Because you have set your heart as the heart of God,
7
therefore, behold, I will bring strangers on you, the terrible of the nations. They will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom. They will defile your brightness.
8
They will bring you down to the pit. You will die the death of those who are slain in the heart of the seas.
9
Will you yet say before him who kills you, ‘I am God’? But you are man, and not God, in the hand of him who wounds you.
10
You will die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers; for I have spoken it,” says the Lord GOD.’”

A Lament for the King of Tyre

11
Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
12
Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and tell him, ‘The Lord GOD says:You were the seal of full measure, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
13
You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire,(a) turquoise, and beryl. Gold work of tambourines and of pipes was in you. They were prepared in the day that you were created.
14
You were the anointed cherub who covers. Then I set you up on the holy mountain of God. You have walked up and down in the middle of the stones of fire.
15
You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, until unrighteousness was found in you.
16
By the abundance of your commerce, your insides were filled with violence, and you have sinned. Therefore I have cast you as profane out of God’s mountain. I have destroyed you, covering cherub, from the middle of the stones of fire.
17
Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty. You have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor. I have cast you to the ground. I have laid you before kings, that they may see you.
18
By the multitude of your iniquities, in the unrighteousness of your commerce, you have profaned your sanctuaries. Therefore I have brought out a fire from the middle of you. It has devoured you. I have turned you to ashes on the earth in the sight of all those who see you.
19
All those who know you among the peoples will be astonished at you. You have become a terror, and you will exist no more.”’”

A Prophecy against Sidon

20
The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
21
Son of man, set your face toward Sidon, and prophesy against it,
22
and say, ‘The Lord GOD says:Behold, I am against you, Sidon. I will be glorified among you. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I have executed judgments in her, and am sanctified in her.
23
For I will send pestilence into her, and blood into her streets. The wounded will fall within her, with the sword on her on every side. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
24
“‘“There will no longer be a pricking brier to the house of Israel, nor a hurting thorn of any that are around them that scorned them. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.”

The Restoration of Israel

(Jeremiah 30:1–17)
25
“‘The Lord GOD says: “When I have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and am shown as holy among them in the sight of the nations, then they will dwell in their own land which I gave to my servant Jacob.
26
They will dwell in it securely. Yes, they will build houses, plant vineyards, and will dwell securely when I have executed judgments on all those around them who have treated them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the LORD their God.”’”
