Wszyscy, co cię znają miedzy pogany, zdumieją się nad tobą. Byłeś im strachem, ale już nigdy nie będziesz.
Wszyscy, co cię znali między narodami, zdumiewają się nad tobą; będziesz na wielki postrach, a nie będzie cię aż na wieki.
Zdziwili się wszyscy, należący do przeróżnych ludów. Dopadła cię zguba i przepadłeś na wieki!
Wszyscy z narodów, którzy cię znali – przerazili się twoim widokiem; wziąłeś nagły koniec oraz zniknąłeś na wieki.
Wszyscy, którzy cię znają wśród narodów, zdumieją się nad tobą. Staniesz się postrachem i nie będzie ciebie już na wieki.
Wszyscy, którzy cię znali pośród ludów, zdumiewali się nad tobą; stałeś się odstraszającym przykładem, przepadłeś na wieki.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee,.... At thy fall; that such a mighty city, and powerful prince, should be destroyed at once; that, from such a height of prosperity, they should be brought to so low an estate of adversity; this will be the astonishment of kings, merchants, and others, that knew the riches, power, and flourishing estate of Rome, as before observed:
thou shalt be a terror; to the said persons, who will be afraid to come nigh for fear of the same torments and punishment, Revelation 18:10, or, though thou "hast been a terror"; or "terrors"; exceeding terrible to others in time past, yet now, as the Targum,
"I will give thee (or make thee) as if thou wast not:''
and never shalt thou be any more; as thou hast been, or after thy last destruction; so mystical Tyre or Babylon shall be no more, when once destroyed, Revelation 18:21.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The dirge of the prince of Tyre, answering to the dirge of the state. The passage is ironical; its main purpose is to depict all the glory, real or assumed, of âthe prince of Tyrus,â in order to show how deplorable should be his ruin.
Ezekiel 28:12
To âseal the sumâ is to make up the whole measure of perfection. Compare the Septuagint
Ezekiel 28:13
Thou hast been in Eden - âThouâ wast etc. The prince of Tyrus is ironically described as the first of creation; but at the same time the parallel is to be maintained in his fall from glory. Like Adam in the enjoyment of paradise, he shall be like Adam in his fall.
Every precious stone - All the stones here named are found in the High priestâs breastplate Exodus 28:17-20, but their order is different, and three stones named in Exodus (the third row) are wanting. The prophet may purposely have varied the description because the number twelve (that of the tribes of Israel) had nothing to do with the prince of Tyrus, and he wished to portray, not a high priest, but a king, having in view a figure which was to a Jew, especially to a priest, the very type of magnificence.
Tabrets - (or, drums) and âpipesâ were a common expression for festivity and triumph.
Ezekiel 28:14
Thou art - Better,â Thouâ wert. âthe anointed cherub that coverethâ In the temple the cherubim and all holy things were consecrated and anointed with oil (Exodus 30:26 ff). The prince of Tyre was also anointed as a sovereign priest - covering or protecting the minor states, like the cherubim with outstretched wings covering the mercy-Seat.
Thou wast upon the holy mountain - As the cherub was in the temple on the holy mountain, so the prince of Tyre was presiding over the island-city, rising like a mountain from the deep.
Stones of fire - i. e., bright and shining. Decked with bright jewels, the prince walked among jewels in gorgeous splendor.
Ezekiel 28:15
The âperfectionâ was false, unsuspected until the âiniquityâ which lay beneath was found out.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 28:19. Thou shalt be a terror — Instead of being an object of adoration thou shalt be a subject of horror, and at last be destroyed with thy city, so that nothing but thy name shall remain. It was entirely burnt by Alexander the Great, as it had been before by Nebuchadnezzar.
