‏ Ezekiel 28:7

7. therefore--apodosis.

strangers ... terrible of the nations--the Chaldean foreigners noted for their ferocity (Eze 30:11; 31:12).

against the beauty of thy wisdom--that is, against thy beautiful possessions acquired by thy wisdom on which thou pridest thyself (Eze 28:3-5).

defile thy brightness--obscure the brightness of thy kingdom.
