Isaiah 14:12-14
New King James Version
The Fall of Lucifer
12 “How(A) you are fallen from heaven,
O [a]Lucifer, son of the morning!
How you are cut down to the ground,
You who weakened the nations!
13 For you have said in your heart:
(B)‘I will ascend into heaven,
(C)I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;
I will also sit on the (D)mount of the congregation
(E)On the farthest sides of the north;
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
(F)I will be like the Most High.’

New King James Version
14 “You were the anointed (A)cherub who covers;
I established you;
You were on (B)the holy mountain of God;
You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones.
15 You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created,
Till (C)iniquity was found in you.
16 “By the abundance of your trading
You became filled with violence within,
And you sinned;
Therefore I cast you as a profane thing
Out of the mountain of God;
And I destroyed you, (D)O covering cherub,
From the midst of the fiery stones.
17 “Your (E)heart was [a]lifted up because of your beauty;
You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor;
I cast you to the ground,
I laid you before kings,
That they might gaze at you.
18 “You defiled your sanctuaries
By the multitude of your iniquities,
By the iniquity of your trading;
Therefore I brought fire from your midst;
It devoured you,
And I turned you to ashes upon the earth
In the sight of all who saw you.
