8. They will bring you down to the pit,and you will die a violent deathin the heart of the seas.
9. Will you then say, ‘I am a god,’in the presence of those who kill you?You will be but a mortal, not a god,in the hands of those who slay you.
10. You will die the death of the uncircumcisedat the hands of foreigners.I have spoken, declares the Sovereign Lord.” ’
11. The word of the Lord came to me:
12. ‘Son of man, take up a lament concerning the king of Tyre and say to him: “This is what the Sovereign Lord says:‘ “You were the seal of perfection,full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
13. You were in Eden,the garden of God;every precious stone adorned you:carnelian, chrysolite and emerald,topaz, onyx and jasper,lapis lazuli, turquoise and beryl.Your settings and mountings were made of gold;on the day you were created they were prepared.
14. You were anointed as a guardian cherub,for so I ordained you.You were on the holy mount of God;you walked among the fiery stones.
