Ezekiel 28:11-13
Legacy Standard Bible
Lament over the King of Tyre
11 Again the word of Yahweh came to me saying, 12 “Son of man, (A)take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre and say to him, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh,
“You [a]had the seal of perfection,
Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
13 You were in (B)Eden, the garden of God;
(C)Every precious stone was your covering:
The (D)ruby, the topaz, and the diamond;
The beryl, the onyx, and the jasper;
The [b]lapis lazuli, the turquoise, and the emerald;
And the gold, the workmanship of your [c](E)settings and [d]sockets,
Was in you.
On the day that you were created
They were prepared.
