I was considering the horns, when lo! another horn, a little one, came up among them, and, three of the former horns, were uprooted from before it,—and lo! eyes, like the eyes of a man, in this horn, and, a mouth, speaking great things.
These, are murmurers, complainers, according to their covetings, going on,—and, their mouth, speaketh great swelling words,—holding persons in admiration, for profit’s sake.

Son of man Say to the Prince of Tyre. Thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh— Because lofty, is thy heart and thou hast said A GOD, am I, In the seat of God, have I taken my seat In the heart of the seas; Whereas thou art a man, and not a GOD, But hast set thy heart as the heart of God:
Do not multiply words, so loftily—loftily, Nor let arrogance proceed from your mouth,—For, a GOD of knowledge, is Yahweh, And, for himself, are great doings made firm.

A pointed arrow, is their tongue Deceit, hath it spoken,—With his mouth peace unto his neighbour, doth one speak, But within himself, he layeth his ambush.
For even thy brethren and the house of thy father, Even they! have betrayed thee, Even they, have cried after thee with full voice,—Do not trust in them, though they speak unto thee fair words.
