12 “Son of man, raise a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the Lord God:

“You were the signet of perfection,[a]
    full of wisdom
    and perfect in beauty.
13 You were in Eden, the garden of God;
    every precious stone was your covering,
carnelian, topaz, and jasper,
    chrysolite, beryl, and onyx,
sapphire,[b] carbuncle, and emerald;
    and wrought in gold were your settings
    and your engravings.[c]
On the day that you were created
    they were prepared.
14 With an anointed guardian cherub I placed you;[d]
    you were on the holy mountain of God;
    in the midst of the stones of fire you walked.
