¹² How you have ^(A)fallen from heaven,
You ^[a](B)star of the morning, son of the dawn!
You have been cut down to the earth,
You who defeated the nations!
¹³ But you said in your heart,
‘I will ^(C)ascend to heaven;
I will ^(D)raise my throne above the stars of God,
And I will sit on the mount of assembly
In the recesses of the north.
¹⁴ I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;
^(E)I will make myself like the Most High.’
¹⁵ Nevertheless you ^(F)will be brought down to Sheol,
To the recesses of the pit.

¹⁴ You were the ^(A)anointed cherub who ^[a]covers,
And I placed you there.
You were on the holy ^(B)mountain of God;
You walked in the midst of the ^(C)stones of fire.
¹⁵ You were ^(D)blameless in your ways
From the day you were created
Until ^(E)unrighteousness was found in you.
¹⁶ By the ^(F)abundance of your trade
^[b]You were internally ^(G)filled with violence,
And you sinned;
Therefore I have cast you as profane
From the mountain of God.
And I have destroyed you, you ^[c]covering cherub,
From the midst of the stones of fire.
