Ezekiel 28:11-19 (Holman Christian Standard)
A Lament for Tyre's King
11 The word of the Lord came to me: 12 "Son of man, lamenta for the king of Tyre and say to him: This is what the Lord God says: You were the sealb of perfection,c full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.d 13 You were in Eden,e the garden of God. Every kind of precious stone covered you: carnelian, topaz, and diamond,f beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire,g turquoiseh and emerald.i Your mountings and settings were crafted in gold;j they were prepared on the day you were created. 14 You were an anointed guardian cherub,k forl I had appointed you. You were on the holy mountain of God; you walked among the fiery stones. 15 From the day you were created you were blameless in your ways until wickedness was found in you. 16 Through the abundance of your trade,m you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I expelled you in disgrace from the mountain of God, and banished you, guardian cherub,n from among the fiery stones. 17 Your heart became proud because of your beauty; For the sake of your splendoro you corrupted your wisdom. So I threw you down to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings. 18 You profaned your sanctuaries by the magnitude of your iniquities in your dishonest trade. So I sent out fire from within you, and it consumed you.p I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the sight of everyone watching you. 19 All those who know you among the nations are appalled at you.q You have become an object of horror and will never exist again."rHolman Christian Standard Bible ® Copyright © 2003, 2002, 2000, 1999 by Holman Bible Publishers.
