You have acquired gold and silver for your treasuries.By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, but your heart has become proud because of your wealth.”Therefore this is what the Lord God says: Because you regard your heart as that of a god,I 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.They will bring you down to the Pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the sea.Will you still say,‘ I am a god,’ in the presence of those who kill you? Yet you will be only a man, not a god, in the hands of those who kill you.You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hands of strangers. For I have spoken. This is the declaration of the Lord God.
