1. The word of the Lord came to me:

2. Son of man, say to the prince of Tyre: Thus says the Lord God:Because you are haughty of heart,you say, “I am a god!I sit on a god’s thronein the heart of the sea!”But you are a man, not a god;yet you pretendyou are a god at heart!

3. Oh yes, you are wiser than Daniel,nothing secret is too obscure for you!

4. By your wisdom and intelligenceyou made yourself rich,filling your treasuries with gold and silver.

5. Through your great wisdom in tradingyou heaped up riches for yourself—your heart is haughty because of your riches.
