6 therefore thus says the Lord God:

Because you make your heart

like the heart of a god,

7 therefore, behold, I will bring foreigners upon you,

the most ruthless of the nations;

and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom

and defile your splendor.

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.

6 “Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

Because you think you are as wise as a god,

7 I will now bring against you a foreign army,

the terror of the nations.

They will draw their swords against your marvelous wisdom

and defile your splendor!

6 ‘Therefore thus says the Lord God:

“Because you have set your heart as the heart of a god,

7 Behold, therefore, I will bring strangers against you,

The most terrible of the nations;

And they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom,

And defile your splendor.

6 “ ‘So this is what the Lord God says:

You think you are wise

like a god,

7 but I will bring foreign people against you,

the cruelest nation.

They will pull out their swords

and destroy all that your wisdom has built,

and they will dishonor your greatness.

6 therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because thou hast set thy heart as the heart of God, 7 therefore, behold, 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.

6 Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Because thou hast set thy heart as the heart of God, 7 therefore behold, 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 tarnish thy brightness.

6 “ ‘This is what the Almighty Lord says: 

You think you are wise like God. 

7 That is why I am going to bring foreigners against you, 

the most ruthless foreigners among the nations. 

They will draw their swords against your fine wisdom 

and dishonor your greatness. 

6 Therefore this is what the Lord God says:

Because you regard your heart as that of a god,

7 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.

6 Therefore thus says the Lord God:

Because you compare your mind

with the mind of a god,

7 therefore, I will bring strangers against you,

the most terrible of the nations;

they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom

and defile your splendor.

6 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh:

“Because of your regarding your mind

like the mind of a god,

7 therefore look! I am bringing strangers over you,

the most ruthless of the peoples,

and they will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom,

and they will defile your splendor.

6 The Lord and King says,

“You think you are wise.

In fact, you claim to be as wise as a god.

7 So I am going to bring strangers against you.

They will not show you any pity at all.

They will use their swords against your beauty and wisdom.

They will strike down your shining glory.

6 Therefore thus says the Lord God,

‘Because you have made your heart

Like the heart of God,

7 Therefore, behold, I will bring strangers upon you,

The most ruthless of the nations.

And they will draw their swords

Against the beauty of your wisdom

And defile your splendor.
