Ezekiel 28:15-17

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ Your conduct was without blame
    from the day you were created.
    But soon you began to sin.
¹⁶ You traded with many nations.
    You harmed people everywhere.
    And you sinned.
So I sent you away from my mountain in shame.
    Guardian angel, I drove you away
    from among the gleaming jewels.
¹⁷ You thought you were so handsome
    that it made your heart proud.
You thought you were so glorious
    that it spoiled your wisdom.
So I threw you down to the earth.
    I made an example out of you in front of kings.
