“‘You were the sealer
full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
28:13 You were in Eden, the garden of God.
Every precious stone was your covering,
the ruby, topaz, and emerald,
the chrysolite, onyx, and jasper,
the sapphire, turquoise, and beryl;
your settings and mounts were made of gold.
On the day you were created they were prepared.
28:14 I placed you there with an anointed
you were on the holy mountain of God;
you walked about amidst fiery stones.
28:15 You were blameless in your behavior
until sin was discovered in you.
28:16 In the abundance of your trade you were filled with violence,
so I defiled you and banished you
the guardian cherub expelled you
28:17 Your heart was proud because of your beauty;
you corrupted your wisdom on account of your splendor.
I threw you down to the ground;
I placed you before kings, that they might see you.
9:2 Even if they could dig down into the netherworld,
my hand would pull them up from there.
Even if they could climb up to heaven,
I would drag them down from there.
9:3 Even if they were to hide on the top of Mount Carmel,
I would hunt them down and take them from there.
Even if they tried to hide from me
from there
9:4 Even when their enemies drive them into captivity,
from there
I will not let them out of my sight;
they will experience disaster, not prosperity.”
1:4 Even if you were to soar high like an eagle,
even if you
I can bring you down even from there!” says the Lord.
