You were blameless in your ways from the day you
were created till wickedness was found in you.
Through your widespread trade you were filled with
violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in
disgrace from the mount of God,
and I expelled you, O guardian cherub,
from among the fiery stones.
Your heart became proud on account
of your beauty, and you corrupted your
wisdom because of your splendor.
So I threw you to the earth; I made
a spectacle of you before kings.
— Ezekiel 28:15-17
