Ezekiel 27
1 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
2 “Now you, son of man, take up a lament for Tyre.
“Kaakano, ggwe omwana w’omuntu tandika okukungubagira Ttuulo.
3 Tell Tyre, who dwells at the gateway to the sea, merchant of the peoples on many coasts, that this is what the Lord GOD says: You have said, O Tyre, ‘I am perfect in beauty.’
Oyogere eri Ttuulo, ekiri awayingirirwa mu nnyanja, omusuubuzi ow’amawanga ag’oku ttale ery’ennyanja, nti bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Ggwe Ttuulo oyogera nti, “Natuukirira mu bulungi.”
4 Your borders are in the heart of the seas; your builders perfected your beauty.
Amatwale go gakoma mu nnyanja wakati, era n’abaakuzimba baakola omulimu ogw’ettendo.
5 They constructed all your planking with cypress from Senir. They took a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.
Baakola embaawo zo zonna mu miberosi gya Seniri, ne baddira emivule egy’e Lebanooni ne bakolamu omulongooti.
6 Of oaks from Bashan they made your oars; of wood from the coasts of Cyprus they made your deck, inlaid with ivory.
Ne bakola enkasi zo okuva mu myera egya Basani, n’emmanga zo, bazikola mu nzo, ez’oku bizinga ebya Kittimu, nga bazaaliiridde n’amasanga.
7 Of embroidered fine linen from Egypt they made your sail, which served as your banner. Of blue and purple from the coasts of Elishah they made your awning.
Ettanga lyo lyali lya linena aliko omudalizo eryava mu Misiri, era lyakozesebwanga ebendera; n’engoye zo zaali za bbululu n’ez’effulungu ezaaba ku ttale erya Erisa ekyali ku mabbali g’ennyanja.
8 The men of Sidon and Arvad were your oarsmen. Your men of skill, O Tyre, were there as your captains.
Abasajja b’e Sidoni ne Aluwadi be baakubanga enkasi, n’abasajja bo abamanyirivu, ggwe Ttuulo, be baali abalunnyanja.
9 The elders of Gebal were aboard as shipwrights, repairing your leaks. All the ships of the sea and their sailors came alongside to barter for your merchandise.
Abasajja abazira ab’e Gebali n’abagezigezi baaberanga mu ggwe, era ng’omulimu gwabwe kunyweza emiguwa gy’ebyombo; ebyombo byonna eby’oku nnyanja n’abagoba baabyo bajjanga okusuubula naawe; nga bagula ebyamaguzi byo.
10 Men of Persia, Lydia, and Put served as warriors in your army. They hung their shields and helmets on your walls; they gave you splendor.
“‘Abantu ab’e Buperusi, ne Luudi ne Puuti, baali mu ggye lyo, era be baawanikanga engabo n’enkuufiira ku bisenge byo ne bakuwa ekitiibwa.
11 Men of Arvad and Helech manned your walls all around, and the men of Gammad were in your towers. They hung their shields around your walls; they perfected your beauty.
Abasajja ba Aluwadi n’eggye lyabwe be baakuumanga bbugwe wo enjuuyi zonna; abasajja b’e Gagammada baabanga mu mirongooti gyo nga bawanise engabo zaabwe okwetooloola bbugwe wo, era be baakulabisanga obulungi.
12 Tarshish was your merchant because of your great wealth of goods; they exchanged silver, iron, tin, and lead for your wares.
“‘Talusiisi yakolanga naawe obusuubuzi obw’obugagga obw’engeri zonna bwe walina, baawanyisanga effeeza, n’ebyuma, n’amabaati n’amasasi bafune ebyamaguzi byo.
13 Javan, Tubal, and Meshech were your merchants. They exchanged slaves and bronze utensils for your merchandise.
“‘Buyonaani, Tubali, ne Meseki be baakusuubulangako, nga muwanyisaganya abaddu n’ebintu eby’ebikomo bafune ebintu byammwe.
14 The men of Beth-togarmah exchanged horses, war horses, and mules for your wares.
“‘Ab’omu Togaluma baawanyisaganya embalaasi ez’emirimu egya bulijjo, n’embalaasi ez’entalo, n’ennyumbu bafune ebyamaguzi byo.
15 The men of Dedan were your clients; many coastlands were your market; they paid you with ivory tusks and ebony.
“‘Abasajja ab’e Dedani baasuubulanga naawe, era n’abatuuze ab’oku lubalama lw’ennyanja baali katale ko, nga bakusasula n’amasanga n’emitoogo.
16 Aram was your customer because of your many products; they exchanged turquoise, purple, embroidered work, fine linen, coral, and rubies for your wares.
“‘Edomu baakolanga naawe eby’obusuubuzi olw’obungi bw’ebintu byo; era baawanyisanga naawe amayinja aga nnawandagala, n’engoye ez’effulungu, n’emirimu egy’eddalizo, ne linena omulungi ne kolali n’amayinja amatwakaavu bafune ebyamaguzi byo.
17 Judah and the land of Israel traded with you; they exchanged wheat from Minnith, cakes and honey, oil and balm for your merchandise.
“‘Yuda ne Isirayiri baakolanga naawe eby’obusuubuzi nga bawaanyisa naawe eŋŋaano eyavanga e Minnisi n’ebyakaloosa, n’omubisi gw’enjuki, n’amafuta n’envumbo, bafune ebyamaguzi byo.
18 Because of your many products and your great wealth of goods, Damascus traded with you wine from Helbon, wool from Zahar,
“‘Olw’obugagga bwo obungi, n’ebintu byo ebingi, Ddamasiko baasuubulanga naawe wayini ow’e Keruboni, n’ebyoya by’endiga ebyeru eby’e Zakari.
19 and casks of wine from Izal for your wares. Wrought iron, cassia, and sweet cane were exchanged for your merchandise.
Aba Ddaani ne Yovani (Buyonaani) abaavanga e Wuzari baawanyisanga naawe ekyuma ekiyisiddwa mu muliro n’embawo eza kasiya ne kalamo, ne bagula ebyamaguzi byo.
20 Dedan was your merchant in saddlecloths for riding.
“‘Dedani yakusuubulangako bulangiti ezakozesebwanga ne mu kwebagala embalaasi.
21 Arabia and all the princes of Kedar were your customers, trading in lambs, rams, and goats.
“‘Buwalabu n’abalangira bonna ab’e Kedali baakusuubulangako era ne bakugulako abaana b’endiga, n’endiga ennume n’embuzi.
22 The merchants of Sheba and Raamah traded with you; for your wares they exchanged gold, the finest of all spices, and precious stones.
“‘Abasuubuzi ab’e Seeba ne Laama baakolagananga naawe, nga bakusuubulako ebyakaloosa ebisinga byonna obulungi, n’amayinja gonna ag’omuwendo omungi ne zaabu, bafune ebyamaguzi byammwe.
23 Haran, Canneh, and Eden traded with you, and so did the merchants of Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad.
“‘Kalani, ne Kaane ne Adeni n’abasuubuzi ab’e Seeba, Asuli, ne Kirumaadi baasuubulanga naawe.
24 In your marketplace they traded with you fine garments of blue, embroidered work, and multicolored rugs with cords tightly twisted and knotted.
Mu katale ko baasubulirangamu engoye ennungi, engoye eza bbululu, n’engoye ez’eddalizo, n’ebiwempe ebineekaneeka ebiriko emiguwa emiruke egyalukibwa obulungi.
25 The ships of Tarshish carried your merchandise. And you were filled with heavy cargo in the heart of the sea.
“‘Ebyombo eby’e Talusiisi bye byatambuzanga ebyamaguzi byo. Era wajjula n’oba n’ebintu bingi wakati mu nnyanja.
26 Your oarsmen have brought you onto the high seas, but the east wind will shatter you in the heart of the sea.
Abakubi b’enkasi bakutwala awali amayengo amangi. Naye omuyaga ogw’Ebuvanjuba gulikumenyeramenyera wakati mu nnyanja.
27 Your wealth, wares, and merchandise, your sailors, captains, and shipwrights, your merchants and all the warriors within you, with all the other people on board, will sink into the heart of the sea on the day of your downfall.
Obugagga bwo n’ebyamaguzi byo n’ebikozesebwa byo, n’abalunnyanja bo, n’abagoba bo, n’abasuubuzi bo n’abaserikale bo bonna na buli muntu ali ku kyombo balibbira wakati mu nnyanja ku lunaku kw’oligwiira ku kabenje.
28 The countryside will shake when your sailors cry out.
Eddoboozi ly’okukaaba kw’abalunnyanja bo, kulikankanya ebyalo ebiri ku lubalama lw’ennyanja.
29 All who handle the oars will abandon their ships. The sailors and all the captains of the sea will stand on the shore.
Abakubi b’enkasi bonna balyabulira ebyombo byabwe; n’abagoba n’abalunnyanja bonna baliyimirira ku lubalama lw’ennyanja.
30 They will raise their voices for you and cry out bitterly. They will throw dust on their heads and roll in ashes.
Baliyimusa amaloboozi gaabwe ne bakukaabira nnyo; era baliteeka enfuufu ku mitwe gyabwe ne beevulunga mu vvu.
31 They will shave their heads for you and wrap themselves in sackcloth. They will weep over you with anguish of soul and bitter mourning.
Balikumwera emitwe gyabwe, era Balyambala ebibukutu. Balikukaabira n’emmeeme ezennyamidde nga bakukungubaga n’emitima egijjudde ennyiike.
32 As they wail and mourn over you, they will take up a lament for you: ‘Who was ever like Tyre, silenced in the middle of the sea?
Balikukungubagira nga bwe bakuba ebiwoobe nga boogera nti, Ani eyali asirisibbwa nga Ttuulo eyeetooloddwa ennyanja?
33 When your wares went out to sea, you satisfied many nations. You enriched the kings of the earth with your abundant wealth and merchandise.
Bwe waweerezanga ebyamaguzi byo ku nnyanja, amawanga mangi gamalibwanga; era ne bakabaka b’ensi baagaggawazibwa eby’obugagga bwo ebingi n’ebyamaguzi byo.
34 Now you are shattered by the seas in the depths of the waters; your merchandise and the people among you have gone down with you.
Kaakano ennyanja ekumazeewo, mu buziba bw’amazzi; ebyamaguzi byo n’ab’omu kyombo kyo bonna babbidde naawe.
35 All the people of the coastlands are appalled over you. Their kings shudder with fear; their faces are contorted.
Abantu bonna ab’oku lubalama lw’ennyanja bafunye ensisi, era ne bakabaka baabwe bajjudde entiisa tebafaananika mu maaso olw’entiisa.
36 Those who trade among the nations hiss at you; you have come to a horrible end and will be no more.’”
Abasuubuzi ab’omu mawanga bakufuuyira empa; otuuse ku nkomerero embi, so tolibeerawo nate ennaku zonna.’”
