1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, 2 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God: 3 Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee: 4 With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures: 5 By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches: 6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God; 7 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. 8 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. 9 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. 10 Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it , saith the Lord GOD.
11 ¶ Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. 13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. 14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. 15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. 16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. 17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. 18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. 19 All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.
20 ¶ Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 21 Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it, 22 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her. 23 For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
24 ¶ And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor any grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD. 25 Thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob. 26 And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.

Tir shohi haqida bashorat
1 Egamiz menga Oʻz soʻzini ayon qildi: 2 “Ey inson, Tir shohiga ayt: «Egamiz Rabbiy shunday demoqda: sen magʻrurlanib ketding. ‘Men xudoman, dengiz bagʻridagi xudolar taxtida oʻtiribman’, deb aytding. Sen oʻzingni xudoday dono deb bilasan, axir, sen xudo emas, insonsan–ku! 3 Nahotki Doniyordan ham dono boʻlsang?! Nahot barcha sirlarni bilsang?! 4 Sen donoliging va aqling bilan oʻzingga davlat orttirding, xazinalaringni oltinu kumushga toʻldirding. 5 Savdo–sotiqdagi iqtidoring bilan koʻp davlat yigʻding. Ammo boyliging tufayli magʻrurlanib ketding.
6 Egamiz Rabbiy shunday demoqda: sen oʻzingni xudoday dono deb bilganing uchun, 7 Men ustingga begona xalqni tortib kelaman. Ular oʻtaketgan yovuz xalqdir. Ular goʻzalliging va donoligingga qarshi chiqib, qilich yalangʻochlaydilar. Hashamatingni oyoq osti qiladilar. 8 Oʻzingni esa tubsiz chuqurlikka uloqtiradilar. Ha, sen dengiz bagʻrida azoblanib jon berasan. 9 Shunda, jallodlaring oldida ‘men xudoman’, deb aytarmikansan?! Axir, qotillaring qoʻlida sen xudo emas, oddiy bir inson boʻlasan! 10 Sen musofirlar qoʻlida sunnatsizlar kabi oʻlasan. Bularni Men aytdim. Egamiz Rabbiyning kalomi shudir.»”
Tir shohi haqida marsiya
11 Egamiz menga yana shunday dedi: 12 “Ey inson, Tir shohi haqida marsiya ayt: «Egamiz Rabbiy shunday demoqda:
Ey Tir shohi, sen barkamollikning aʼlo namunasi boʻlding.
Nihoyatda dono, goʻzallikda barkamol eding.
13 Sen Xudoning bogʻi Adanda yashar eding.
Qizil yoqut, xrizolit, olmos,
Topaz, aqiq, yashma,
Zangori yoqut, firuza va zumrad kabi
Qimmatbaho toshlar bilan bezanar eding.
Taqinchoqlaring oltindan yasalgan edi.
Sen yaralgan kuning bular tayyorlangandi.
14 Men seni soqchi karub qilib tanladim,
Oʻsha martabaga seni tayinladim.
Sen Xudoning togʻida yashar eding,
Olovday tovlangan toshlar orasida yurar eding.
15 Bino boʻlganingdan to qabihlik qilguningga qadar,
Sen toʻgʻri yoʻldan yurding.
16 Katta tijorating tufayli,
Yovuzlikka toʻlib, gunoh qilding.
Men seni sharmandalarcha Xudoning togʻidan haydadim.
Ey soqchi karub, Men seni chiqarib yubordim,
Olovday tovlangan toshlar orasidan haydadim.
17 Sen goʻzalliging tufayli magʻrurlanib ketgan eding.
Savlating tufayli aql–farosatdan voz kechgan eding.
Shuning uchun Men seni yerga uloqtirdim,
Shohlar oldida sharmandangni chiqardim.
18 Sen cheksiz gunohlaring bilan,
Savdo–sotiqdagi nohaqliklaring bilan,
Oʻz sajdagohlaringni bulgʻading.
Shuning uchun Men ichingdan olov chiqardim,
Seni kuydirib tashladim.
Odamlarning koʻzi oldida kulingni koʻkka sovurdim.
19 Seni bilgan xalqlar ahvolingni koʻrib, dong qotdilar.
Sening boshingga dahshatli oʻlim keldi,
Sen abadiy yoʻq boʻlasan.»”
Sidon shahri haqida bashorat
20 Egamiz menga Oʻz soʻzini ayon qildi: 21 “Ey inson, Sidon shahriga yuzlan, unga qarshi bashorat qilib ayt: 22 «Egamiz Rabbiy shunday demoqda: ey Sidon, Men senga qarshiman! Seni jazolab, sen orqali muqaddasligimni ayon qilaman, shu tariqa orangda Oʻzimni ulugʻlayman. Oʻshanda Egang Men ekanligimni bilib olasan. 23 Men seni dahshatli oʻlatga giriftor qilaman. Koʻchalaringda qon daryo boʻlib oqadi. Dushmanlaring senga har tomondan hamla qiladi, odamlarning jasadlari shahar ichida yotadi. Oʻshanda Egang Men ekanligimni bilib olasan.»”
Kelajakda Isroil oladigan barakalar
24-25 Egamiz Rabbiy shunday demoqda: “Isroil xalqidan hazar qilib, zulm oʻtkazgan bironta qoʻshni xalq bundan buyon Isroil xalqi uchun tikan va yantoqday boʻlmaydi. Isroil xalqi Egasi Rabbiy Men ekanligimni bilib oladi. Men tarqatib yuborgan xalqim Isroilni uzoq yurtlardan Oʻzim yigʻib olaman. Ular orqali barcha xalqlarga muqaddasligimni ayon qilaman. Men qulim Yoqubga mulk qilib bergan yerda ularni oʻrnashtiraman. 26 Ular osoyishta hayot kechiradilar. Uylar qurib, uzumzorlar barpo qiladilar. Ulardan hazar qilgan qoʻshni xalqlarni jazolaganim uchun xalqim bexatar, tinch yashaydi. Oʻshanda Egasi Xudo Men ekanligimni bilib oladi.”
