Ezekiel 28:7-13 God's Word Translation (GW)

7. That is why I am going to bring foreigners against you,the most ruthless foreigners among the nations.They will draw their swords against your fine wisdomand dishonor your greatness.

8. They will throw you into a pit,and you will die a violent death in the sea.

9. You will no longer say that you are a godwhen you face those who kill you.You will be a human, not a god, in the hands of those who kill you.

10. You will die at the hands of foreigners like a godless person.I have spoken,’” declares the Lord.

11. The Lord spoke his word to me. He said,

12. “Son of man, sing a funeral song for the ruler of Tyre. Tell him, ‘This is what the Almighty Lord says:You were the perfect example,full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

13. You were in Eden, God’s garden.You were covered with every kind of precious stone:red quartz, topaz, crystal,beryl, onyx, gray quartz, sapphire,turquoise, and emerald.Your settings and your socketswere made of gold when you were created.
