Ezekiel 28:12-14

Good News Translation

¹² “Mortal man,” he said, “grieve for the fate that is waiting for the king of Tyre. Tell him what I, the Sovereign Lord, am saying: You were once an example of perfection. How wise and handsome you were! ¹³ You lived in Eden, the garden of God, and wore gems of every kind: rubies and diamonds; topaz, beryl, carnelian, and jasper; sapphires, emeralds, and garnets. You had ornaments of gold. They were made for you^[a] on the day you were created. ¹⁴ I put a terrifying angel there to guard you.^[b] You lived on my holy mountain and walked among sparkling gems.
