Every precious stone was your covering: The ruby, the topaz and the diamond; The beryl, the onyx and the jasper; The lapis lazuli, the turquoise and the emerald;
And the gold, the workmanship of your settings and sockets, Was in you. On the day that you were created

I will preside on the mountain of the gods
far away in the north. I will climb to the highest heavens
and be like the Most High.’ Instead, you will be brought down to the place of the dead,
down to its lowest depths.
