Are you trying to describe them to somebody in Morocco so that they can buy them for you? I would suggest just telling them in French or in Standard Arabic. They might have special words for it in the dialect but something so standard like precious stones....I kind of doubt it.

And really, if they know French it's pretty much the same for the most part but guys tend to be a bit more clueless there about these things. LOL

Are you referring to the allegorical verses wherein the Prophet Ezekiel likens the King of Tyre to the fallen archangel, Lucifer? If so, Lucifer had nine stones: "Every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz, and emerald, chrysolite, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and beryl." (Ezekiel: 28:13 NIV).
------

You were the model of perfection,
full of wisdom and perfect
beauty.
You were in Eden,
the garden of God,
every previous stone adorned you:
ruby, topaz, and emerald,
chrysolite, onyx, and jasper
sapphire, turquoise, and beryl.
Your settings and mountings were
made of gold;
on the day you were created they
were prepared.
You were anointed as a guardian
cherub.
For so I ordained you.
You were on the holy mount of God'
you walked among the fiery stones.
You were blameless in your ways
from the day you were created
till wickedness was found in you.
Through your widespread tread
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
By your many sins and dishonest
trade
you have desecrated your sanctuaries.
So I made a fire come out from you.
And it consumed you,
and I reduced you to ashes on the ground
in the sight of all who were watching.
All the nations who knew you
are appalled at you;
you have come to a horrible end
and will be no more.


Ezekiel 28: 12-19 (NIV)

Charles asks…

Book about dragons and people with semi precious stone names?

Ok, it sounds crazy but I read this fantasy book back when I was 17 so about 6 years ago. It was about a prince, his wife and their son living in a kingdom and there are dragons present. All I remember is a lot of references to semi precious stones - onyx, topaz etc. They may have been people's names or something.

Also, the prince is rebuilding a castle made out or rose pink colored stone for his wife.

Its a really sweet book. I really really want to find it and read it again as it brings back lots of lovely memories of sitting on the couch reading for days!!

Please help if you can!

admin answers:

Well I have no idea on what book you're talking about but, I just wanted to say that if you liked that book, then you will certainly like Eragon, Eldest, and Brisinger, by Chrishapher Paloni. (I think that's how you spell his name) Also, after your done, there is a movie about Eragon.
