14 You were the (A)anointed cherub who [a]covers,
And I placed you there.
You were on the holy (B)mountain of God;
You walked in the midst of the (C)stones of fire.
15 You were (D)blameless in your ways
From the day you were created
Until (E)unrighteousness was found in you.
16 By the (F)abundance of your trade
[b]You were internally (G)filled with violence,
And you sinned;
Therefore I have cast you as profane
From the mountain of God.
And I have destroyed you, you [c]covering cherub,
From the midst of the stones of fire.
17 Your heart was haughty because of your (H)beauty;
You (I)corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor.
I threw you to the ground;
I put you before (J)kings,
That they may see you.
18 By the multitude of your wrongdoings,
In the unrighteousness of your trade
You profaned your sanctuaries.
Therefore I have brought (K)fire from the midst of you;
It has consumed you,
And I have turned you to (L)ashes on the earth
In the eyes of all who see you.
19 All who know you among the peoples
Are appalled at you;
You have become [d](M)terrified
And you will cease to be (N)forever.”’”

14 You were anointed(A) as a guardian cherub,(B)
    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,(C)
    and you sinned.
So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God,
    and I expelled you, guardian cherub,(D)
    from among the fiery stones.
17 Your heart became proud(E)
    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.(F)
18 By your many sins and dishonest trade
    you have desecrated your sanctuaries.
So I made a fire(G) come out from you,
    and it consumed you,
and I reduced you to ashes(H) on the ground
    in the sight of all who were watching.(I)
19 All the nations who knew you
    are appalled(J) at you;
you have come to a horrible end
    and will be no more.(K)’”
