Ezekiel 28:17-19
EasyEnglish Bible
17 But because you were so beautiful, you were very proud.
You used your wisdom to do bad things,
because you loved to have beautiful things.
So I threw you down to the ground.
I let other kings see what had happened to you.
18 As a trader, you did many wrong things to cheat people.
Your holy places became unclean.
So I caused fire to completely destroy your city.
Everyone could see that only ashes remained on the ground.
19 All the people of other nations who knew you are very afraid.
They have seen the terrible thing that has happened to you.
You have come to a complete end and you will never return.” ’
Ezekiel 28:17-19
New International Version
17 Your heart became proud(A)
on account of your beauty,
and you corrupted your wisdom
because of your splendor.
So I threw you to the earth;
I made a spectacle of you before kings.(B)
18 By your many sins and dishonest trade
you have desecrated your sanctuaries.
So I made a fire(C) come out from you,
and it consumed you,
and I reduced you to ashes(D) on the ground
in the sight of all who were watching.(E)
19 All the nations who knew you
are appalled(F) at you;
you have come to a horrible end
and will be no more.(G)’”
