¹³ You were in ^(A)Eden, the garden of God;
^(B)Every precious stone was your covering:
The ^(C)ruby, the topaz and the diamond;
The beryl, the onyx and the jasper;
The lapis lazuli, the turquoise and the emerald;
And the gold, the workmanship of your ^[a](D)settings and ^[b]sockets,
Was in you.
On the day that you were created
They were prepared.
¹⁴ You were the ^(E)anointed cherub who ^[c]covers,
And I placed you there.
You were on the holy ^(F)mountain of God;
You walked in the midst of the ^(G)stones of fire.
¹⁵ You were ^(H)blameless in your ways
From the day you were created
Until ^(I)unrighteousness was found in you.
¹⁶ By the ^(J)abundance of your trade
^[d]You were internally ^(K)filled with violence,
And you sinned;
Therefore I have cast you as profane
From the mountain of God.
And I have destroyed you, you ^[e]covering cherub,
From the midst of the stones of fire.
¹⁷ Your heart was haughty because of your ^(L)beauty;
You ^(M)corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor.
I threw you to the ground;
I put you before ^(N)kings,
That they may see you.

¹² How you have ^(A)fallen from heaven,
You ^[a](B)star of the morning, son of the dawn!
You have been cut down to the earth,
You who defeated the nations!
¹³ But you said in your heart,
‘I will ^(C)ascend to heaven;
I will ^(D)raise my throne above the stars of God,
And I will sit on the mount of assembly
In the recesses of the north.
¹⁴ I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;
^(E)I will make myself like the Most High.’
¹⁵ Nevertheless you ^(F)will be brought down to Sheol,
To the recesses of the pit.
¹⁶ Those who see you will stare at you,
They will ^[b]closely examine you, saying,
‘Is this the man who made the earth tremble,
Who shook kingdoms,
¹⁷ Who made the world like a ^(G)wilderness
And overthrew its cities,
Who ^(H)did not ^[c]allow his prisoners to go home?’
