8 They will kill you;you will die a terrible deathlike those who are killed at sea.
9 While they are killing you,you will not be able to say anymore, “I am a god.”You will be only a human, not a god,when your murderers kill you.
10 You will die like an unclean person;foreigners will kill you.I have spoken, says the Lord God.’ ”
11 The Lord spoke his word to me, saying:
12 “Human, sing a funeral song for the king of Tyre. Say to him: ‘This is what the Lord God says:You were an example of what was perfect,full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
13 You had a wonderful life,as if you were in Eden, the garden of God.Every valuable gem was on you:ruby, topaz, and emerald,yellow quartz, onyx, and jasper,sapphire, turquoise, and chrysolite.Your jewelry was made of gold.It was prepared on the day you were created.
14 I appointed a living creature to guard you.I put you on the holy mountain of God.You walked among the gems that shined like fire.
