Ezekiel 27

1 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying:

Naʻe toe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,

2 And thou, son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyre,

“Ko eni, ʻe foha ʻoe tangata, ke ke fai ʻae tangilāulau koeʻuhi ko Taia;

3 and say unto Tyre: O thou that art situate at the entries of the sea, and traffickest with the peoples in many isles, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Thou, Tyre, hast said, I am perfect in beauty.

Pea ke pehē ki Taia, ʻa koe ʻoku tuʻu taupotu ki tahi, ko e fai fakatau ki he kakai mei he ngaahi motu lahi, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “ʻE Taia, ʻa koe kuo ke pehē ʻe koe, Ko au ʻoku ou toulekeleka haohaoa.

4 Thy borders are in the heart of the seas, thy builders have perfected thy beauty.

‌ʻOku aʻu atu ho ngataʻanga ki he loto tahi, pea kuo fakasanisaniʻi koe ke haohaoa ʻe hoʻo kau tufunga.

5 They made all thy double boards of cypress-trees of Senir; they took cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee.

Kuo nau faʻu ho ngaahi vaka mei he ngaahi ʻakau ko e fea mei Sina: kuo nau taʻanga mei he ngaahi sita ʻo Lepanoni ke ngaohi ʻae ngaahi fanā kiate koe.

6 Of the oaks of Bashan did they make thine oars; they made thy benches of ivory, inlaid in box-wood, out of the isles of Chittim.

7 Byssus with broidered work from Egypt was thy sail, to serve thee for a banner; blue and purple from the isles of Elishah was thine awning.

Naʻa ke fuka ʻaki ʻae tupenu lelei naʻe tuitui fakasanisani mei ʻIsipite; ko e tupenu paʻuhiʻuhi mo e kulaʻahoʻaho mei he ʻotu motu ʻo ʻIlisa ko ia naʻa ke kofuʻaki koe.

8 The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy rowers; thy wise men, O Tyre, who were in thee, were thy pilots.

9 The elders of Gebal and the wise men thereof were in thee repairing thy leaks; all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in thee, to barter with thee.

Ko e kakai mātuʻa ʻo Kepale mo hono kau poto ko e tufunga foʻu vaka ʻakinautolu: pea naʻe ʻiate koe ʻae vaka mei he tahi kotoa pē mo honau kakai, ko hoʻo kau fai fakatau ʻakinautolu.

11 The children of Arvad with thine army were upon thy walls round about, and the Gammadim were on thy towers: they hanged their shields upon thy walls round about; they made thy beauty perfect.

Naʻe kau taha mo hoʻo kau tau ʻi hoʻo ngaahi ʻā ʻae kakai ʻo ʻAvate; pea naʻe ʻi ho ngaahi fale leʻo māʻolunga ʻae kau Kamatini, naʻa nau tautau takatakai pe ʻenau ngaahi pā ʻi he ngaahi ʻā; kuo nau fakahaohaoa ʻekinautolu ho toulekeleka.

Naʻe fakatau ʻae hoosi mo e kau heka hoosi, pea mo e miuli, ʻekinautolu mei he fale ʻo Tokalama.

15 The children of Dedan were thy traffickers; many isles were the mart of thy hand: they rendered in payment horns of ivory, and ebony.

19 Vedan and Javan of Uzal traded in thy markets: wrought iron, cassia, and calamus were in thy traffic.

Ko hoʻo kau fakatau ʻa Halani, mo Kane, mo ʻIteni, mo e kakai fakatau mei Sipa, mo ʻAsilia, pea mo Kilimati.

24 these traded with thee in sumptuous clothes, in wrappings of blue and broidered work, and in chests full of variegated stuffs, bound with cords and made of cedar-wood, amongst thy merchandise.

Ko hoʻo kau fakatau ʻakinautolu ni ʻi he ngaahi koloa kehekehe, ʻi he tupenu ki hoʻo meʻa fakatau.

25 The ships of Tarshish were thy caravans for thy traffic; and thou wast replenished, and highly honoured, in the heart of the seas.

Naʻe taʻanga ʻaki koe ʻe he ngaahi folau mei Tasisi ʻi ho potu fakatau: pea naʻe fakakoloaʻi koe, pea naʻe ngaohi koe ke ke nāunauʻia ʻaupito ʻi he ngaahi potu tahi ko ia.

26 Thy rowers have brought thee into great waters; the east wind hath broken thee in the heart of the seas.

“Kuo ʻave koe ʻe hoʻo kau tauʻaʻalo ki he ngaahi vai lahi: kuo maumauʻi koe ʻi loto tahi ʻe he matangi hahake.

27 Thy substance, and thy markets, thy merchandise, thy mariners, and thy pilots, they that repair thy leaks, and they that barter with thee, and all thy men of war that are in thee, along with all thine assemblage which is in the midst of thee, shall fall into the heart of the seas in the day of thy fall.

Pea ko hoʻo koloa, mo ho fakatauʻanga, mo hoʻo meʻa fakatau, ko hoʻo kau toutai mo hoʻo kau fakahao vaka, mo e kakai foʻu vaka, mo e kau fakatau ʻiate koe, mo hoʻo kau tau kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate koe, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ho lotolotonga, te nau ngalo ki loto tahi ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fakaʻauha ai koe.

28 The open places shall shake at the sound of the cry of thy pilots.

‌ʻE ngalulu ʻae ngaahi peau ʻi he pā mai ʻae tangi ʻa hoʻo kau fakahao vaka.

29 And all that handle the oar, the mariners, all the pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships; they shall stand upon the land,

Pea ʻe hifo mei honau vaka ʻakinautolu ʻoku tauʻaʻalo, mo e kau toutai, mo e kau fakahao vaka kotoa pē ʻi he tahi, pea te nau tutuʻu ai;

30 and shall cause their voice to be heard over thee, and shall cry bitterly; and they shall cast up dust upon their heads; they shall wallow themselves in ashes.

Pea te nau hiki honau leʻo ke ongo atu kiate koe, pea te nau tangi mamahi, pea te nau lī hake ʻae efu ki honau ʻulu, pea te nau olooloʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he efuefu:

31 And they shall make themselves utterly bald for thee, and gird themselves with sackcloth; and they shall weep for thee in bitterness of soul with bitter mourning.

Pea te nau fakatelefua ʻaupito ʻakinautolu koeʻuhi ko koe, mo nau ʻai ʻae tauangaʻa, pea te nau tangi koeʻuhi ko koe ʻi he mamahi ʻo honau loto, pea fai mo e tangilāulau fakamamahi.

32 And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and lament over thee, [saying, ] Who is like Tyre, like her that is destroyed in the midst of the sea?

Pea ʻi heʻenau mamahi, te nau fai ʻae tangilāulau koeʻuhi ko koe, ʻonau tangi mamahi koeʻuhi ko koe ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e kolo fē ʻoku hangē ko Taia, kuo maumauʻi ʻi he loto tahi?

33 When thy wares went forth over the seas, thou filledst many peoples; thou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the abundance of thy substance and of thy merchandise.

Naʻa ke fakamahu ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻi he ngaahi meʻa naʻe fetuku meiate koe ki he ngaahi potu tahi; naʻa ke fakakoloa ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, ʻi he lahi ʻo hoʻo koloa mo hoʻo meʻa fakatau.

34 In the time [when] thou art broken by the seas, in the depths of the waters, thy merchandise and all thine assemblage in the midst of thee have fallen.

‌ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe maumauʻi koe ʻe he ngaahi peau ʻi he loloto ʻoe ngaahi vai, ʻe hinga ai mo koe ʻa hoʻo koloa mo hoʻo kakai kotoa pē.’

35 All the inhabitants of the isles are amazed at thee, and their kings are horribly afraid, [their] countenance is troubled.

“ʻE ofo ʻiate koe ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi ʻotu motu, pea ʻe manavahē lahi honau kau pule, te nau mata kehe ʻi heʻenau puputuʻu.

36 The merchants among the peoples hiss at thee; thou art become a terror, and thou shalt never be any more.

‌ʻE fakaʻiseʻisa ʻae kau fakatau koloaʻia ʻi he kakai kiate koe: te ke hoko koe ko e meʻa fakaʻulia; pea ʻe ʻikai te ke toe ʻi ai ʻo taʻengata.”
