“‘You were the seal of perfection,
    full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.^(B)
13 You were in Eden,^(C)
    the garden of God;^(D)
every precious stone^(E) adorned you:
    carnelian, chrysolite and emerald,
    topaz, onyx and jasper,
    lapis lazuli, turquoise^(F) and beryl.^[a]
Your settings and mountings^[b] were made of gold;
    on the day you were created they were prepared.^(G)
14 You were anointed^(H) as a guardian cherub,^(I)
    for so I ordained you.
You were on the holy mount of God;
    you walked among the fiery stones.
¹⁵ You were blameless in your ways
    from the day you were created
    till wickedness was found in you.
¹⁶ Through your widespread trade
    you were filled with violence,^(J)
    and you sinned.
So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God,
    and I expelled you, guardian cherub,^(K)
    from among the fiery stones.
¹⁷ Your heart became proud^(L)
    on account of your beauty,
and you corrupted your wisdom
    because of your splendor.
So I threw you to the earth;
    I made a spectacle of you before kings.^(M)
18 By your many sins and dishonest trade
    you have desecrated your sanctuaries.
So I made a fire^(N) come out from you,
    and it consumed you,
and I reduced you to ashes^(O) on the ground
    in the sight of all who were watching.^(P)
19 All the nations who knew you
    are appalled^(Q) at you;
you have come to a horrible end
    and will be no more.^(R)’”
