← Ezekiel 28:7	Ezekiel 28:8 (KJV)	Ezekiel 28:9 →
Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.	They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of [them that are] slain in the midst of the seas.	Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I [am] God? but thou [shalt be] a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee.
