Ezekiel 28:13-14
New King James Version
13 You were in (A)Eden, the garden of God;
Every precious stone was your covering:
The sardius, topaz, and diamond,
Beryl, onyx, and jasper,
Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold.
The workmanship of (B)your timbrels and pipes
Was prepared for you on the day you were created.
14 “You were the anointed (C)cherub who covers;
I established you;
You were on (D)the holy mountain of God;
You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones.
