8 Your enemies will brutally kill you, and the sea will be your only grave.
9 When you face your enemies, will you still claim to be a god? They will attack, and you will suffer like any other human.
10 Foreigners will kill you, and you will die the death of those who don't worship me. I, the Lord, have spoken.
11 The Lord said:
12 Ezekiel, son of man, sing a funeral song for the king of Tyre and tell him I am saying:At one time, you were perfect, intelligent, and good-looking.
13 You lived in the garden of Eden and wore jewellery made of brightly-coloured gems and precious stones. They were all set in gold and were ready for you on the day you were born.
14 I appointed a winged creature to guard your home on my holy mountain, where you walked among gems that dazzled like fire.
