Ezekiel 28:5-7

1599 Geneva Bible

⁵ By thy great wisdom and by thine occupying hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches.

⁶ Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Because thou didst think in thine heart, that thou wast equal with God,

⁷ Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, even the terrible nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.
