Ezekiel 27
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
2 Thou therefore, O son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyre:
“Mwanakomana womunhu, chema pamusoro peTire.
3 And say to Tyre that dwelleth at the entry of the sea, being the mart of the people for many islands: Thus saith the Lord God: O Tyre, thou hast said: I am of perfect beauty,
Uti kuTire, riri pasuo rokugungwa, mushambadziri wavanhu vamarudzi ose pazviwi zvizhinji, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: “‘Unoti, iwe Tire, “Ini ndakakwana parunako.”
