4 By your wisdom and by your understanding you have gained for yourself wealth, and you have amassed gold and silver in your treasuries.
5 By the abundance of your wisdom in your trading you have increased your wealth and your heart was proud in your wealth.” ’ ”
6 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Because of your regarding your mind like the mind of a god,
7 therefore look! I am bringing strangers over you, the most ruthless of the peoples, and they will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they will defile your splendor.
8 They will thrust you down to the pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the seas.
9 Will you indeed still say “I am a god!” before the face of your killers? And in fact you are a human and not a god in the hand of those who pierce you.
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers, for I myself have spoken!” declares the Lord Yahweh.
