12 (A)“Son of man, (B)raise a lamentation over (C)the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the Lord God:

“You were the signet of perfection,[a]
    (D)full of wisdom and (E)perfect in beauty.
13 You were in (F)Eden, the garden of God;
    (G)every precious stone was your covering,
(H)sardius, topaz, and diamond,
    beryl, onyx, and jasper,
sapphire,[b] (I)emerald, and carbuncle;
    and crafted in gold were your settings
    and your engravings.[c]
(J)On the day that you were created
    they were prepared.
14 You were an anointed (K)guardian cherub.
    I placed you;[d] you were on (L)the holy mountain of God;
    in the midst of the stones of fire you walked.
15 You were blameless in your ways
    (M)from the day you were created,
    till unrighteousness was found in you.
16 In the abundance of (N)your trade
    you were filled with violence in your midst, and you sinned;
so I cast you as a profane thing from (O)the mountain of God,
    and I destroyed you,[e] (P)O guardian cherub,
    from the midst of the stones of fire.
17 (Q)Your heart was proud because of (R)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.

Sheol beneath is stirred up
    to meet you when you come;
it rouses the shades to greet you,
    all who were leaders of the earth;
it raises from their thrones
    all who were kings of the nations.
10 (A)All of them will answer
    and say to you:
‘You too have become as weak as we!
    You have become like us!’
11 Your pomp is brought down to Sheol,
    the sound of your harps;
maggots are laid as a bed beneath you,
    and worms are your covers.

12 “How (B)you are fallen from heaven,
    O Day Star, (C)son of Dawn!
How you are cut down to the ground,
    you who laid the nations low!
13 You said in your heart,
    (D)‘I will ascend to heaven;
above the stars of God
    (E)I will set my throne on high;
I will sit on the mount of assembly
    in the far reaches of the north;[a]
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;
    I will make myself like the Most High.’
15 (F)But you are brought down to Sheol,
    to the far reaches of the pit.
