⁶ therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because thou hast set thy heart as the heart of God,

² Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyre, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because thy heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a god, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art man, and not God, though thou didst set thy heart as the heart of God;-

¹⁷ As yet exaltest thou thyself against my people, that thou wilt not let them go?

⁴ `He is' wise in heart, and mighty in strength: Who hath hardened himself against him, and prospered?-

⁹ Or hast thou an arm like God? And canst thou thunder with a voice like him?

¹⁰ Deck thyself now with excellency and dignity; And array thyself with honor and majesty.

¹¹ Pour forth the overflowings of thine anger; And look upon every one that is proud, and abase him.

¹² Look on every one that is proud, `and' bring him low; And tread down the wicked where they stand.

²² Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

⁴ he that opposeth and exalteth himself against all that is called God or that is worshipped; so that he sitteth in the temple of God, setting himself forth as God.

¹¹ For the sun ariseth with the scorching wind, and withereth the grass: and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his goings.
