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

“You were the signet of perfection,[a]
    (D)full of wisdom and (E)perfect in beauty.
13 You were in (F)Eden, the garden of God;
    (G)every precious stone was your covering,
(H)sardius, topaz, and diamond,
    beryl, onyx, and jasper,
sapphire,[b] (I)emerald, and carbuncle;
    and crafted in gold were your settings
    and your engravings.[c]
(J)On the day that you were created
    they were prepared.
14 You were an anointed (K)guardian cherub.
    I placed you;[d] you were on (L)the holy mountain of God;
    in the midst of the stones of fire you walked.
