The Book of the Prophet Ezekiel 28: 1-10

28:1 Agus tháinig briathar an Tiarna chugam, ag rá:
28:2 “Mac an duine, say to the leader of Tyre: Mar seo a deir an Tiarna Dia: Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, ‘I am God, and I sit in the chair of God, in the heart of the sea,’ though you are a man, and not God, and because you have presented your heart as if it were the heart of God:
28:3 Féach, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is concealed from you.
28:4 By your wisdom and prudence, you have made yourself strong, and you have acquired gold and silver for your storehouses.
28:5 By the multitude of your wisdom, and by your business dealings, you have multiplied strength for yourself. And your heart has been exalted by your strength.
28:6 Dá bhrí sin, mar seo a deir an Tiarna Dia: Because your heart has been exalted as if it were the heart of God,
28:7 ar an gcuis, Féach, I will lead over you foreigners, the most robust among the Gentiles. And they will bare their swords over the beauty of your wisdom, and they will defile your beauty.
28:8 They will destroy you and pull you down. And you will die the death of those slain in the heart of the sea.
28:9 Mar sin ansin, will you speak, in the presence of those who are destroying you, before the hand of those who are killing you, ag rá, ‘I am God,’ though you are a man, and not God?
28:10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hand of foreigners. For I have spoken, a deir an Tiarna Dia.”
