Ezekiel 28:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁴ I appointed you to be like a guardian angel.
    I anointed you for that purpose.
You were on my holy mountain.
    You walked among the gleaming jewels.
¹⁵ Your conduct was without blame
    from the day you were created.
    But soon you began to sin.
¹⁶ You traded with many nations.
    You harmed people everywhere.
    And you sinned.
So I sent you away from my mountain in shame.
    Guardian angel, I drove you away
    from among the gleaming jewels.
