3 Look, you are wiser than Daniel;[a]
no secret is hidden from you.[b]

you have amassed gold and silver in your treasuries.
5 By your great skill[c] in trade you have increased your wealth,
and your heart is proud because of your wealth.
Footnotes
- Ezekiel 28:3 sn Or perhaps “Danel” (so TEV), referring to a ruler known from Canaanite legend. See the note on “Daniel” in 14:14. A reference to Danel (preserved in legend at Ugarit, near the northern end of the Phoenician coast) makes more sense here when addressing Tyre than in 14:14.
- Ezekiel 28:3 sn The tone here is sarcastic, reflecting the ruler’s view of himself.
- Ezekiel 28:5 tn Or “wisdom.”
