28The word of the LORD came to me:H1697H3068H5592"Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre: This is what the Lord God says: Your heart is proud, and you have said: I am a god; I sit in the seat of gods in the heart of the sea. Yet you are a man and not a god, though you have regarded your heart as that of a god.H1121H120H559H5057H6865H559H136H3069H3820H1361H559H410H3427H4186H430H3820H3220H120H410H5414H3820H3820H4303Yes, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is hidden from you!H2450H1840H5640H60044By your wisdom and understanding you have acquired wealth for yourself. You have acquired gold and silver for your treasuries.H2451H8394H6213H2428H6213H2091H3701H2145By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, but your heart has become proud because of your wealth."H7230H2451H7404H7235H2428H3824H1361H24286Therefore this is what the Lord God says: Because you regard your heart as that of a god,H559H136H3069H5414H3820H3824H4307I am about to bring strangers against you, ruthless men from the nations. They will draw their swords against your magnificent wisdom and will defile your splendor.H935H2114H6184H1471H7324H2719H3308H2451H2490H33148They will bring you down to the Pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the sea.H3381H7845H4191H4463H2491H3820H32209Will you still say: I am a god, in the presence of those who kill you? Yet you will be [shown to be] a man, not a god, in the hands of those who kill you.H559H559H6440H2026H430H120H410H3027H249010You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hands of strangers. For I have spoken. [This is] the declaration of the Lord God.H4191H4194H6189H3027H2114H1696H5002H136H3069
A Lament for Tyre’s King
11The word of the LORD came to me:H1697H3068H55912"Son of man, lament for the king of Tyre and say to him: This is what the Lord God says: You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.H1121H120H5375H7015H4428H6865H559H559H136H3069H2856H8508H4392H2451H3632H330813You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every kind of precious stone covered you: carnelian, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, turquoise and emerald. Your mountings and settings were crafted in gold; they were prepared on the day you were created.H5731H1588H430H3368H68H4540H124H6357H3095H8658H7718H3471H5601H5306H1304H2091H4399H8596H5345H3559H3117H125414You were an anointed guardian cherub, for I had appointed you. You were on the holy mountain of God; you walked among the fiery stones.H4473H3742H5526H5414H6944H2022H430H1980H8432H68H78415From the day you were created you were blameless in your ways until wickedness was found in you.H8549H1870H3117H1254H5766H467216Through the abundance of your trade, you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I expelled you in disgrace from the mountain of God, and banished you, guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones.H7230H7404H4390H8432H2555H2398H2490H2022H430H6H5526H3742H8432H68H78417Your heart became proud because of your beauty; For the sake of your splendor you corrupted your wisdom. So I threw you down to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings.H3820H1361H3308H7843H2451H5921H3314H7993H776H5414H6440H4428H720018You profaned your sanctuaries by the magnitude of your iniquities in your dishonest trade. So I sent out fire from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the sight of everyone watching you.H2490H4720H7230H5771H5766H7404H3318H784H8432H398H5414H665H776H5869H720019All those who know you among the nations are appalled at you. You have become an object of horror and will never exist again."H3045H5971H8074H1091H369H5704H5769
A Prophecy against Sidon
20The word of the LORD came to me:H1697H3068H55921"Son of man, turn your face toward Sidon and prophesy against it.H1121H120H7760H6440H6721H501222You are to say: This is what the Lord God says: Look! I am against you, Sidon, and I will display My glory within you. They will know that I am the LORD when I execute judgments against her and demonstrate My holiness through her.H559H559H136H3069H6721H3513H8432H3045H3068H6213H8201H694223I will send a plague against her and bloodshed in her streets; the slain will fall within her, while the sword is against her on every side. Then they will know that I am the LORD.H7971H1698H1818H2351H2491H5307H8432H2719H5439H3045H306824"The house of Israel will no longer be hurt by prickling briers or painful thorns from all their neighbors who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord God.H3992H5544H1004H3478H3510H6975H5439H7590H3045H136H306925"This is what the Lord God says: When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples where they are scattered and demonstrate My holiness through them in the sight of the nations, then they will live in their own land, which I gave to My servant Jacob.H559H136H3069H6908H1004H3478H5971H6327H6942H5869H1471H3427H127H5414H5650H329026They will live there securely, build houses, and plant vineyards. They will live securely when I execute judgments against all their neighbors who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the LORD their God."H3427H983H1129H1004H5193H3754H3427H983H6213H8201H7590H5439H3045H3068H430
Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
