3
lo! thou art wiser than Daniel, each private is not hid from thee; (lo! art thou wiser than Daniel? is no secret hid from thee?)
4
in thy wisdom and prudence thou madest to thee strength, and thou gattest to thee gold and silver in thy treasuries; (with thy wisdom and prudence thou madest riches for thyself, and thou gottest thyself gold and silver in thy treasures;)
5
in the multitude of thy wisdom, and in thy merchandise thou multipliedest to thee strength, and thine heart was raised [up] in thy strength; (in the multitude of thy wisdom, and in thy merchandise thou multipliedest to thee riches, and thy heart was raised up because of thy riches;)
6
therefore the Lord God saith these things, For thine heart was raised [up] as the heart of God, (and so the Lord God saith these things, For thy heart was raised up like the heart of a god,)
7
therefore lo! I shall bring on thee aliens, the strongest of heathen. And they shall make naked their swords on the fairness of thy wisdom, and they shall defoul thy fairness. (and so lo! I shall bring strangers, or foreigners, against thee, yea, the strongest of the heathen. And they shall make their swords naked against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy beauty.)
8
They shall slay, and draw down thee (into the pit) (They shall kill thee, and draw thee down into the pit); and thou shalt die by the death of uncircumcised men, in the heart of the sea.
9
Whether thou shalt say, and speak, I am God, before them that slay thee; since thou art a man, and not God? In the hand of them that slay thee, (Shalt thou speak, and say, I am a god, before those who shall kill thee; since thou art but a man, and not a god? In the hands of those who shall kill thee,)
10
by death of uncircumcised men, thou shalt die in the hand of aliens; for I the Lord spake, saith the Lord God. (thou shalt die the death of the uncircumcised, yea, by the hands of strangers, or of foreigners; for I the Lord spoke, saith the Lord God.)
11
And the word of the Lord was made to me, and he said,
12
Son of man, raise thou wailing on the king of Tyre; and thou shalt say to him, The Lord God saith these things, Thou, a print of likeness, full of wisdom, perfect in fairness, (Son of man, raise thou up a wailing for the king of Tyre; and thou shalt say to him, The Lord God saith these things, Thou, a seal of perfection, full of wisdom, great in beauty,)
13
were in the delights of paradise of God. Each precious stone was thy covering, sardius, topaz, and jasper, chrysolyte, and onyx, and beryl, sapphire, and carbuncle, and smaragdus; also gold was the work of thy fairness, and thine holes were made ready, in the day in which thou were made. (were in Eden, the Garden of God. Each precious stone was thy covering, yea, sardius, and topaz, and jasper, chrysolyte, and onyx, and beryl, sapphire, and carbuncle, and emerald; and gold was the work of thy beauty, and thy ornaments were prepared, on the day in which thou were made, or were created.)
