Ezekiel 28:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 ¶ Moreover, the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the King of Tyre, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord God, Thou sealest up the sum, and art full of [a]wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God: every precious stone was in thy garment, the ruby, the topaz, and the [b]diamond, the chrysolite, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, [c]emerald, and the carbuncle and gold: the workmanship of thy timbrels, and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
