Good News Translation
13 You lived in Eden, the garden of God, and wore gems of every kind: rubies and diamonds; topaz, beryl, carnelian, and jasper; sapphires, emeralds, and garnets. You had ornaments of gold. They were made for you[a] on the day you were created. 14 I put a terrifying angel there to guard you.[b] You lived on my holy mountain and walked among sparkling gems. 15 Your conduct was perfect from the day you were created until you began to do evil.

13 You were in Eden,(A)
the garden of God;(B)
every precious stone(C) adorned you:
carnelian, chrysolite and emerald,
topaz, onyx and jasper,
lapis lazuli, turquoise(D) and beryl.[a]
Your settings and mountings[b] were made of gold;
on the day you were created they were prepared.(E)
14 You were anointed(F) as a guardian cherub,(G)
for so I ordained you.
You were on the holy mount of God;
you walked among the fiery stones.
15 You were blameless in your ways
from the day you were created
till wickedness was found in you.
