2 Human one, say to the prince of Tyre, The Lord God proclaims: In your arrogance, you say, "I am God, and as God I rule the seas!" Though you claim to have the mind of a god, you are mortal, not divine.
3 You are certainly wiser than Daniel; no secrets are hidden from you.
4 By your wisdom and discernment, you made yourself rich, and you filled your storehouses with silver and gold.
5 Through your shrewd trading you multiplied your riches. But then you became proud of your riches.
6 So now the Lord God proclaims: Because you claim to have the mind of a god,
7 I’ll bring foreigners, the most ruthless nations, against you. They will let loose their swords against your fine wisdom, and they will degrade your splendor.
8 They will hurl you to destruction, and you will die, murdered, on the high seas.
