Ezekiel 28:12–17

¹²Mortal, raise a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and say to him: Thus says the Lord God:

You were the signet of perfection,^f

full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.^*

¹³You were in Eden, the garden of God;

every precious stone was your covering,

carnelian, chrysolite, and moonstone,

beryl, onyx, and jasper,

sapphire,^g turquoise, and emerald;

and worked in gold were your settings

and your engravings.^h

On the day that you were created

they were prepared.^*

¹⁴You were a cherub;ⁱ

I placed you on the holy mountain of God;

you walked among the stones of fire.^*

¹⁵You were blameless in your ways

from the day that you were created,

until iniquity was found in you.^*

¹⁶In the abundance of your trade

you were filled with violence, and you sinned,

so I cast you as a profane thing from the mountain of God,

and I drove you out, O guardian cherub,

from among the stones of fire.^*

¹⁷Your heart was proud because of your beauty;

you corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor.

I cast you to the ground;

I exposed you before kings,

to feast their eyes on you.^*
