9. That person will kill you. Will you still say, “I am a god”? No, he will have you in his power! You will see that you are a man, not God!

10. Strangers will treat you like a foreigner and kill you, because I gave the command!’” This is what the Lord GOD said.

11. The word of the Lord came to me. He said,

12. “Son of man, sing this sad song about the king of Tyre. Say to him, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says: “‘You were the perfect man— so full of wisdom and perfectly handsome.

13. You were in Eden, the garden of God. You had every precious stone— rubies, topaz, and diamonds, beryls, onyx, and jasper, sapphires, turquoise, and emeralds. And each of these stones was set in gold. You were given this beauty on the day you were created. God made you strong.

14. You were one of the chosen Cherubs who spread your wings over my throne. I put you on the holy mountain of God. You walked among the jewels that sparkled like fire.
