Ezekiel 28:16-19
Tree of Life Version
16 By the abundance of your trade
they filled you within with violence.
So you have sinned.
So I threw you out as a profane thing
from the mountain of God.
I made you vanish, guardian cheruv,
from among the stones of fire.
17 Your heart was exalted because of your beauty.
You corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor.
I threw you down to the earth.[a]
Before kings I set you up as a spectacle.
18 “‘By the multitude of your iniquities,
in the injustice of your trade,
you profaned your sanctuaries.
So I brought fire out from within you,
and it has consumed you.
I have turned you to ashes on the earth
in the eyes of all who saw you.
19 All who know you among the people
will be appalled at you.
You have become a horror
and will be nothing forever.’”
