16 By the abundance of your commerce, your insides were filled with violence,
    and you have sinned.
Therefore I have cast you as profane out of God’s mountain.
    I have destroyed you, covering cherub,
    from the middle of the stones of fire.
17 Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty.
    You have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor.
I have cast you to the ground.
    I have laid you before kings,
    that they may see you.

    in the unrighteousness of your commerce,
    you have profaned your sanctuaries.
Therefore I have brought out a fire from the middle of you.
    It has devoured you.
I have turned you to ashes on the earth
    in the sight of all those who see you.
