10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hands of foreigners. I have spoken, declares the Sovereign Lord.' "
10 Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
10 You shall die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of foreigners; for I have spoken, declares the Lord GOD."
10 You'll die like a stray dog, killed by strangers -
10 You shall die the death of the uncircumcised By the hand of aliens; For I have spoken," says the Lord God.' "
10 You will die like an outcast at the hands of foreigners. I, the Sovereign Lord, have spoken!"
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 28:10
Commentary on Ezekiel 28:1-19
(Read Ezekiel 28:1-19)
Ethbaal, or Ithobal, was the prince or king of Tyre; and being lifted up with excessive pride, he claimed Divine honours. Pride is peculiarly the sin of our fallen nature. Nor can any wisdom, except that which the Lord gives, lead to happiness in this world or in that which is to come. The haughty prince of Tyre thought he was able to protect his people by his own power, and considered himself as equal to the inhabitants of heaven. If it were possible to dwell in the garden of Eden, or even to enter heaven, no solid happiness could be enjoyed without a humble, holy, and spiritual mind. Especially all spiritual pride is of the devil. Those who indulge therein must expect to perish.
