< Ezekiel 27 >

1 The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,
2 “You, son of man, take up a lamentation over Tyre;
Kia anga atu akuanei tau tangi, e te tama a te tangata, ki a Taira;
3 and tell Tyre, ‘You who dwell at the entry of the sea, who are the merchant of the peoples to many islands, the Lord GOD says: “You, Tyre, have said, ‘I am perfect in beauty.’
Mea atu hoki ki a Taira, E koe e noho nei i te tapokoranga mai o te moana, ko koe nei te kaihokohoko o nga iwi ki nga motu maha, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; E Taira, kua mea na koe, Ko ahau te mea ataahua rawa.
4 Your borders are in the heart of the seas. Your builders have perfected your beauty.
Kei waenga moana ou rohe, oti rawa koe te whakaataahua e ou kaihanga.
5 They have made all your planks of cypress trees from Senir. They have taken a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.
No nga kauri o Heniri nga papa katoa i hanga ai ou kaipuke; i tikina ano he hita i Repanona hei hanga rewa mau.
6 They have made your oars of the oaks of Bashan. They have made your benches of ivory inlaid in cypress wood from the islands of Kittim.
No nga oki o Pahana nga hoe i hanga mau, ou taumanu he mea hanga ki te rei, he mea kua oti te whakanoho ki te ake o nga motu o Kitimi.
7 Your sail was of fine linen with embroidered work from Egypt, that it might be to you for a banner. Blue and purple from the islands of Elishah was your awning.
He rinena pai, he mea whakairo no Ihipa te mea i wherahia e koe hei komaru mou, hei kara mau; ko te hipoki mou, he puru, he papura no nga motu o Eriha.
8 The inhabitants of Sidon and Arvad were your rowers. Your wise men, Tyre, were in you. They were your pilots.
Ko au kaihoe ko nga tangata o Hairona, o Arawara; ko au kaiurungi ko nga tangata whakaaro nui i roto i a koe, e Taira.
9 The old men of Gebal and its wise men were your repairers of ship seams in you. All the ships of the sea with their mariners were in you to deal in your merchandise.
I roto nga kaumatua o Kepara i a koe, me nga tangata whakaaro nui o reira hei kaimono mau: i a koe nga kaipuke katoa o te moana, me o ratou kaiwhakatere, hei hoko i ou taonga.
10 “‘“Persia, Lud, and Put were in your army, your men of war. They hung the shield and helmet in you. They showed your beauty.
I roto i tou ope ko Pahia, ko Ruru, ko Putu, he hoia nau: whakairihia ake ana e ratou te puapua me te potae i roto i a koe; he mea whakahonore koe na ratou.
11 The men of Arvad with your army were on your walls all around, and valiant men were in your towers. They hung their shields on your walls all around. They have perfected your beauty.
I runga i ou taiepa nga tangata o Arawara me tou ope ano a tawhio noa, i roto i ou pourewa nga Kamarimi: whakairihia ana e ratou a ratou whakangungu rakau ki ou taiepa a tawhio noa: oti rawa koe te whakaataahua e ratou.
12 “‘“Tarshish was your merchant by reason of the multitude of all kinds of riches. They traded for your wares with silver, iron, tin, and lead.
He kaihokohoko a Tarahihi ki a koe, he nui hoki no ou taonga katoa: ko ta ratou i tuku ai i au hokohokonga he hiriwa, he rino, he tine, he mata.
13 “‘“Javan, Tubal, and Meshech were your traders. They traded the persons of men and vessels of bronze for your merchandise.
Ko Iawana, ko Tupara, ko Meheke, he kaihokohoko ratou nau; ko ta ratou i tuku ai i ou kainga hoko, he tangata, he oko parahi.
14 “‘“They of the house of Togarmah traded for your wares with horses, war horses, and mules.
Ko nga tangata o te whare o Tokarama, ko ta ratou i tuku ai i au hokohokonga he hoiho, he hoiho no te whawhai, he muera.
15 “‘“The men of Dedan traded with you. Many islands were the market of your hand. They brought you horns of ivory and ebony in exchange.
He kaihokohoko nau nga tangata o Rerana; he maha nga motu i hokohokona ai nga taonga e koe: kawea mai ana e ratou hei whakawhiti ki a koe, he hoana rei, he eponi.
16 “‘“Syria was your merchant by reason of the multitude of your handiworks. They traded for your wares with emeralds, purple, embroidered work, fine linen, coral, and rubies.
He kaihokohoko nau a Hiria, i te nui hoki o nga mahi a ou ringa; ko ta ratou i tuku ai mo au taonga he emerara, he papura, he mea whakairo, he rinena pai, he kaoa, he rupi.
17 “‘“Judah and the land of Israel were your traders. They traded wheat of Minnith, confections, honey, oil, and balm for your merchandise.
Ko Hura, ko te whenua o Iharaira, ko ratou au kaihokohoko: ko ta ratou i tuku ai i ou kainga hoko he witi no Miniti, he panaka, he honi, he hinu, he pama.
18 “‘“Damascus was your merchant for the multitude of your handiworks by reason of the multitude of all kinds of riches, with the wine of Helbon, and white wool.
He kaihokohoko nau a Ramahiku, he nui no nga mahi a ou ringa, he nui no nga taonga katoa; ko ta ratou, he waina no Herepono, he huruhuru hipi ma.
19 “‘“Vedan and Javan traded with yarn for your wares; wrought iron, cassia, and calamus were among your merchandise.
I tuku taonga a Rana, a Iawana, he miro huruhuru, i roto i au hokohokonga: i au taonga hokohoko ko te rino kua oti te mahi, ko te kahia, ko te kakaho kakara.
20 “‘“Dedan was your merchant in precious saddle blankets for riding.
Ko Rerana tau kaihokohoko i nga kakahu utu nui mo nga hariata.
21 “‘“Arabia and all the princes of Kedar were your favorite dealers in lambs, rams, and goats. In these, they were your merchants.
Ko Arapia, ko nga rangatira katoa o Kerara, i hokohokona o ratou taonga e koe, nga reme, nga hipi toa, nga koati: ko nga mea ena i hokohoko ai ratou ki a koe.
22 “‘“The traders of Sheba and Raamah were your traders. They traded for your wares with the best of all spices, all precious stones, and gold.
Ko nga kaihokohoko o Hepa, o Raama, he kaihokohoko ano ratou nau: ko ta ratou i tuku ai i au hokohokonga ko nga mea pai rawa o nga kinaki reka katoa, ko nga kohatu utu nui katoa, ko te koura.
23 “‘“Haran, Canneh, Eden, the traders of Sheba, Asshur and Chilmad, were your traders.
Ko Harana, ko Kane, ko Erene, ko nga kaihokohoko o Hepa, ko Ahuru, ko Kirimara, he kaihokohoko nau.
24 These were your traders in choice wares, in wrappings of blue and embroidered work, and in cedar chests of rich clothing bound with cords, among your merchandise.
Ko ratou hei hoko i nga mea pai rawa ki a koe, i nga kakahu puru, i te mea whakairo, i nga pouaka kakahu pai, he mea paihere ki te aho, he hita, i roto i ou taonga hoko.
25 “‘“The ships of Tarshish were your caravans for your merchandise. You were replenished and made very glorious in the heart of the seas.
Ko nga kaipuke o Tarahihi nga waka harihari i ou taonga: a ka whakakiia koe, ka meinga kia nui rawa tou kororia i waenga moana.
26 Your rowers have brought you into great waters. The east wind has broken you in the heart of the seas.
I kawea koe e ou kaihoe ki nga wai maha; i pakarua koe e te hau marangai ki waenga moana.
27 Your riches, your wares, your merchandise, your mariners, your pilots, your repairers of ship seams, the dealers in your merchandise, and all your men of war who are in you, with all your company which is among you, will fall into the heart of the seas in the day of your ruin.
Ko ou taonga, ko au hokohokonga, ko au whakawhitiwhitinga, ko au kaiwhakatere kaipuke, ko au kaiurungi, ko au kaimono, me nga kaiwhakawhitiwhiti i ou taonga, me au hoia katoa i roto i a koe, i roto ano i tou hui katoa i waenganui i a koe, ka tak a ratou ki waenga moana i te ra e hinga ai koe.
28 At the sound of the cry of your pilots, the pasture lands will shake.
Ka ngateri a waho o te pa i te ngangau, i te hamama o au kaiurungi.
29 All who handle the oars, the mariners and all the pilots of the sea, will come down from their ships. They will stand on the land,
Na, ko nga kaihapai hoe katoa, ko nga kaiwhakatere, ko nga kaiurungi katoa o te moana, ka mahuta mai i runga i o ratou kaipuke, ka tu ki te tuawhenua,
30 and will cause their voice to be heard over you, and will cry bitterly. They will cast up dust on their heads. They will wallow in the ashes.
A ka meinga e ratou to ratou reo mou kia rangona, tiwerawera ana ta ratou tangi, ka opehia ano e ratou he puehu ki o ratou mahunga, ka takaoriori ki te pungarehu.
31 They will make themselves bald for you, and clothe themselves with sackcloth. They will weep for you in bitterness of soul, with bitter mourning.
Moremore rawa ratou i te whakaaro ki a koe, he kakahu taratara te whitiki, mamae rawa te ngakau, tiwerawera te tangi e tangi ai ratou ki a koe.
32 In their wailing they will take up a lamentation for you, and lament over you, saying, ‘Who is there like Tyre, like her who is brought to silence in the middle of the sea?’
I a ratou ano e tangi ana, ka maranga ta ratou tangi apakura mou, ka uhunga ratou ki a koe, ka mea, Ko tehea pa i rite ki Taira, ki tenei i whakawahangutia nei i waenga moana?
33 When your wares came from the seas, you filled many peoples. You enriched the kings of the earth with the multitude of your riches and of your merchandise.
I te putanga atu o ou taonga i nga moana, he maha nga iwi i makona i tau; i whai taonga nga kingi o te whenua i a koe, i te nui hoki o ou taonga, o ou rawa.
34 In the time that you were broken by the seas, in the depths of the waters, your merchandise and all your company fell within you.
I te wa i pakaru ai koe i nga moana, ki nga wahi hohonu o te moana, i taka ou rawa, me tou hui katoa i waenganui i a koe.
35 All the inhabitants of the islands are astonished at you, and their kings are horribly afraid. They are troubled in their face.
Ko nga tangata katoa o nga motu, ketekete ana ki a koe, nui atu te wehi o o ratou kingi, ko o ratou mata kohukihuki ana.
36 The merchants among the peoples hiss at you. You have come to a terrible end, and you will be no more.”’”
Ka whakahi mai ki a koe nga kaihokohoko i roto i nga iwi; ka ai koe hei whakawehi; a kore tonu ake koe ake ake.
