13 You were in Eden,
    the garden of God.
Every precious stone adorned you:
    ruby, topaz, emerald,
    chrysolite, onyx, jasper,
    sapphire,[a] turquoise, and beryl.
Gold work of tambourines
    and of pipes was in you.
    They were prepared in the day that you were created.
14 You were the anointed cherub who covers.
    Then I set you up on the holy mountain of God.
    You have walked up and down in the middle of the stones of fire.
15 You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created,
    until unrighteousness was found in you.
