Every precious stone was your covering:
The sardius, topaz, and diamond,
Beryl, onyx, and jasper,
Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold.
The workmanship of byour timbrels and pipes
Was prepared for you on the day you were created.
I established you;
You were on bthe holy mountain of God;
You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones.
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, aO covering cherub,
From the midst of the fiery stones.
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.
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.
aYou have become a horror,
And shall be no bmore forever.” ’ ”
