15 Your life was right and good
    from the day you were created,
    until evil was found in you.
16 Because you traded with countries far away,
    you learned to be cruel, and you sinned.
So I threw you down in disgrace from the mountain of God.
    And the living creature who guarded you
    forced you out from among the gems that shined like fire.

    because of your greatness.

    Your example taught a lesson to other kings.

    because of your splendor.
So I threw you to the earth;
    I made a spectacle of you before kings.(D)
