Ezekiel 28

The Message Bible MSG

1 God's Message came to me,

2 "Son of man, tell the prince of Tyre, 'This is what God, the Master, says: "'Your heart is proud, going around saying, "I'm a god. I sit on God's divine throne, ruling the sea" - You, a mere mortal, not even close to being a god, A mere mortal trying to be a god.

3 Look, you think you're smarter than Daniel. No enigmas can stump you.

4 Your sharp intelligence made you world-wealthy. You piled up gold and silver in your banks.

5 You used your head well, worked good deals, made a lot of money. But the money has gone to your head, swelled your head - what a big head!

6 "'Therefore, God, the Master, says: "'Because you're acting like a god, pretending to be a god,

7 I'm giving fair warning: I'm bringing strangers down on you, the most vicious of all nations. They'll pull their swords and make hash of your reputation for knowing it all. They'll puncture the balloon of your god-pretensions.

8 They'll bring you down from your self-made pedestal and bury you in the deep blue sea.

9 Will you protest to your assassins, "You can't do that! I'm a god"? To them you're a mere mortal. They're killing a man, not a god.

10 You'll die like a stray dog, killed by strangers -

11 Because I said so. Decree of God, the Master.'"

12 "Son of man, raise a funeral song over the king of Tyre. Tell him, A Message from God, the Master: "You had everything going for you.

13 You were in Eden, God's garden. You were dressed in splendor, your robe studded with jewels: Carnelian, peridot, and moonstone, beryl, onyx, and jasper, Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald, all in settings of engraved gold. A robe was prepared for you the same day you were created.

14 You were the anointed cherub. I placed you on the mountain of God. You strolled in magnificence among the stones of fire.

15 From the day of your creation you were sheer perfection... and then imperfection - evil! - was detected in you.

16 In much buying and selling you turned violent, you sinned! I threw you, disgraced, off the mountain of God. I threw you out - you, the anointed angel-cherub. No more strolling among the gems of fire for you!

17 Your beauty went to your head. You corrupted wisdom by using it to get worldly fame. I threw you to the ground, sent you sprawling before an audience of kings and let them gloat over your demise.

18 By sin after sin after sin, by your corrupt ways of doing business, you defiled your holy places of worship. So I set a fire around and within you. It burned you up. I reduced you to ashes. All anyone sees now when they look for you is ashes, a pitiful mound of ashes.

19 All who once knew you now throw up their hands: 'This can't have happened! This has happened!'"

20 God's Message came to me:

21 "Son of man, confront Sidon. Preach against it.

22 Say, 'Message from God, the Master: "'Look! I'm against you, Sidon. I intend to be known for who I truly am among you.' They'll know that I am God when I set things right and reveal my holy presence.

23 I'll order an epidemic of disease there, along with murder and mayhem in the streets. People will drop dead right and left, as war presses in from every side. Then they'll realize that I mean business, that I am God.

24 "No longer will Israel have to put up with their thistle-and-thorn neighbors Who have treated them so contemptuously. And they also will realize that I am God."

25 God, the Master, says, "When I gather Israel from the peoples among whom they've been scattered and put my holiness on display among them with all the nations looking on, then they'll live in their own land that I gave to my servant Jacob.

26 They'll live there in safety. They'll build houses. They'll plant vineyards, living in safety. Meanwhile, I'll bring judgment on all the neighbors who have treated them with such contempt. And they'll realize that I am God."

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens

2 fili hominis dic principi Tyri haec dicit Dominus Deus eo quod elevatum est cor tuum et dixisti Deus ego sum et in cathedra Dei sedi in corde maris cum sis homo et non Deus et dedisti cor tuum quasi cor Dei

3 ecce sapientior es tu Danihele omne secretum non est absconditum a te

4 in sapientia et prudentia tua fecisti tibi fortitudinem et adquisisti aurum et argentum in thesauris tuis

5 in multitudine sapientiae tuae et in negotiatione tua multiplicasti tibi fortitudinem et elevatum est cor tuum in robore tuo

6 propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus eo quod elevatum est cor tuum quasi cor Dei

7 idcirco ecce ego adducam super te alienos robustissimos gentium et nudabunt gladios suos super pulchritudinem sapientiae tuae et polluent decorem tuum

8 interficient et detrahent te et morieris interitu occisorum in corde maris

9 numquid dicens loqueris Deus ego sum coram interficientibus te cum sis homo et non Deus in manu occidentium te

10 morte incircumcisorum morieris in manu alienorum quia ego locutus sum ait Dominus Deus

11 et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens fili hominis leva planctum super regem Tyri

12 et dices ei haec dicit Dominus Deus tu signaculum similitudinis plenus sapientia et perfectus decore

13 in deliciis paradisi Dei fuisti omnis lapis pretiosus operimentum tuum sardius topazius et iaspis chrysolitus et onyx et berillus sapphyrus et carbunculus et zmaragdus aurum opus decoris tui et foramina tua in die qua conditus es praeparata sunt

14 tu cherub extentus et protegens et posui te in monte sancto Dei in medio lapidum ignitorum ambulasti

15 perfectus in viis tuis a die conditionis tuae donec inventa est iniquitas in te

16 in multitudine negotiationis tuae repleta sunt interiora tua iniquitate et peccasti et eieci te de monte Dei et perdidi te o cherub protegens de medio lapidum ignitorum

17 elevatum est cor tuum in decore tuo perdidisti sapientiam tuam in decore tuo in terram proieci te ante faciem regum dedi te ut cernerent te

18 in multitudine iniquitatum tuarum et iniquitate negotiationis tuae polluisti sanctificationem tuam producam ergo ignem de medio tui qui comedat te et dabo te in cinerem super terram in conspectu omnium videntium te

19 omnes qui viderint te in gentibus obstupescent super te nihili factus es et non eris in perpetuum

20 et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens

21 fili hominis pone faciem tuam contra Sidonem et prophetabis de ea

22 et dices haec dicit Dominus Deus ecce ego ad te Sidon et glorificabor in medio tui et scient quia ego Dominus cum fecero in ea iudicia et sanctificatus fuero in ea

23 et inmittam ei pestilentiam et sanguinem in plateis eius et corruent interfecti in medio eius gladio per circuitum et scient quia ego Dominus

24 et non erit ultra domui Israhel offendiculum amaritudinis et spina dolorem inferens undique per circuitum eorum qui adversantur eis et scient quia ego Dominus Deus

25 haec dicit Dominus Deus quando congregavero domum Israhel de populis in quibus dispersi sunt sanctificabor in eis coram gentibus et habitabunt in terra sua quam dedi servo meo Iacob

26 et habitabunt in ea securi et aedificabunt domos plantabuntque vineas et habitabunt confidenter cum fecero iudicia in omnibus qui adversantur eis per circuitum et scient quia ego Dominus Deus eorum
