Ezekiel 28:2-4

Good News Translation

² “Mortal man,” he said, “tell the ruler of Tyre what I, the Sovereign Lord, am saying to him: Puffed up with pride, you claim to be a god. You say that like a god you sit on a throne, surrounded by the seas. You may pretend to be a god, but, no, you are mortal, not divine. ³ You think you are wiser than Danel,^[a] that no secret can be kept from you. ⁴ Your wisdom and skill made you rich with treasures of gold and silver.
