Moreover the word of the LORD came to me: In Hebrew this prophecy against the king of Tyre begins in the same way as the previous one (see the comments on Ezek 28.1). The Hebrew waw conjunction translated Moreover is omitted by most translations (so Contemporary English Version). Good News Translation renders it “again.”
