The Lord and King says,

“You think you are wise.
    In fact, you claim to be as wise as a god.
So I am going to bring outsiders 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.
They will bring you down to the grave.
    You will die a horrible death
    in the middle of the sea.
