Ezekiel 28:12–17

¹²“Son of man, lament^c for the king of Tyre and say to him, ‘This is what the Lord God says:

You were the seal^D of perfection,^E

full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.^d

¹³You were in Eden,^e the garden of God.

Every kind of precious stone covered you:

carnelian, topaz, and diamond,^E

beryl, onyx, and jasper,

lapis lazuli, turquoise^F and emerald.^G

Your mountings and settings were crafted in gold;^f

they were prepared on the day you were created.

¹⁴You were an anointed guardian cherub,^g

for^A I had appointed you.

You were on the holy mountain of God;

you walked among the fiery stones.

¹⁵From the day you were created

you were blameless in your ways

until wickedness was found in you.

¹⁶Through the abundance of your trade,

you were filled with violence, and you sinned.

So I expelled you in disgrace

from the mountain of God,

and banished you, guardian cherub,^B

from among the fiery stones.

¹⁷Your heart became proud because of your beauty;^h

For the sake of your splendor

you corrupted your wisdom.

So I threw you down to the ground;^C

I made you a spectacle before kings.
