Isaiah 23
1 A message about Tyre. Howl, people on the ships of Tarshish! Tyre has been destroyed—nothing is left of the houses and the harbor. They heard the news from the people of Cyprus.
Ọ̀rọ̀-ìmọ̀ tí ó kan Tire. Hu, ìwọ ọkọ̀ ojú omi Tarṣiṣi! Nítorí a ti pa Tire run láìsí ilé tàbí èbúté. Láti ilẹ̀ Saipurọsi ni ọ̀rọ̀ ti wá sọ́dọ̀ wọn.
2 Stay shocked into silence, people of the coastlands, merchants of Sidon, and sailors.
Dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn erékùṣù àti ẹ̀yin oníṣòwò ti Sidoni, ẹ̀yin tí àwọn a wẹ Òkun ti sọ dọlọ́rọ̀.
3 Egyptian grain came across the wide oceans. The Nile's harvest was what made Tyre money; she was the merchant to the nations.
Láti orí àwọn omi ńlá ni irúgbìn ìyẹ̀fun ti ilẹ̀ Ṣihori ti wá; ìkórè ti odò Naili ni owóòná Tire, òun sì ti di ibùjókòó ọjà fún àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè.
4 Feel the shame, Sidon! For the fortress of the sea says, “I have no children, having never been in labor or given birth. I have not brought up young men or brought up young women.”
Kí ojú kí ó tì ọ́, ìwọ Sidoni àti ìwọ àní ìwọ ilé ààbò ti Òkun, nítorí Òkun ti sọ̀rọ̀. “Èmi kò tí ì wà ní ipò ìrọbí tàbí ìbímọ rí Èmi kò tí ì wo àwọn ọmọkùnrin tàbí kí n tọ́ àwọn ọmọbìnrin dàgbà rí.”
5 When the news about Tyre reaches Egypt they will be in agony.
Nígbà tí ọ̀rọ̀ bá dé Ejibiti, wọn yóò wà ní ìpayínkeke nípa ìròyìn láti Tire.
6 Sail across to Tarshish! Howl, people of the coastlands!
Kọjá wá sí Tarṣiṣi; pohùnréré, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn erékùṣù.
7 Is this really your triumphant city, whose beginnings are from the distant past, who has sent out people to colonize faraway places?
Ǹjẹ́ èyí náà ni ìlú àríyá yín, ògbólógbòó ìlú náà, èyí tí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ ti sìn ín lọ láti lọ tẹ̀dó sí ilẹ̀ tí ó jìnnà réré.
8 Who planned this attack on Tyre? Tyre, who created kingdoms, whose merchants were princes, whose traders were honored around the world!
Ta ló gbèrò èyí sí Tire, ìlú aládé, àwọn oníṣòwò ẹni tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ-aládé tí àwọn oníṣòwò wọ́n jẹ́ ìlúmọ̀míká ní orílẹ̀ ayé?
9 The Lord Almighty planned it, to humble its pride in all its glory, and to bring down all who receive worldly honor.
Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti ṣètò rẹ̀, láti tẹrí ìgbéraga àti ògo rẹ ba àti láti rẹ gbogbo àwọn ọlọ́lá ilé ayé sílẹ̀.
10 Work your land, people of Tarshish, as they do beside the Nile, for you don't have a harbor anymore.
Tu ilẹ̀ rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti ipadò odò Ejibiti, ìwọ ọmọbìnrin Tarṣiṣi, nítorí ìwọ kò ní èbúté mọ́.
11 The Lord held his hand out over the sea and shook kingdoms. He has condemned Phoenicia, giving the order to destroy their fortresses.
Olúwa ti na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ jáde sí orí Òkun ó sì mú kí àwọn ilẹ̀ ọba wárìrì. Ó ti pa àṣẹ kan tí ó kan Kenaani pé kí a pa ilé ààbò rẹ̀ run.
12 He said, “Don't celebrate any more, mistreated virgin daughter of Sidon. Go and sail over to Cyprus—however, even there you won't find rest.”
Ó wí pé, “Kò sí àríyá fún ọ mọ́, ìwọ wúńdíá ti Sidoni, tí a ti tẹ̀ mọ́lẹ̀ báyìí! “Gbéra, rékọjá lọ sí Saipurọsi, níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú o kì yóò ní ìsinmi.”
13 Look at the country of the Babylonians, this people that are not as they used to be! The Assyrians have turned it into a place for desert animals. They set up their siege towers, they demolished the fortresses, and ruined the country.
Bojú wo ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Babeli, àwọn ènìyàn tí kò jámọ́ nǹkan kan báyìí. Àwọn Asiria ti sọ ọ́ di ibùgbé àwọn ohun ẹranko aginjù; wọn ti gbé ilé ìṣọ́ ìtẹ̀gùn wọn sókè, wọ́n ti tú odi rẹ̀ sí ìhòhò wọ́n sì ti sọ ọ́ di ààtàn.
14 Howl, people on the ships of Tarshish because your fortress is destroyed!
Hu, ìwọ ọkọ̀ ojú omi Tarṣiṣi; wọ́n ti pa odi rẹ̀ run!
15 At that time Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, a king's lifetime, as it were. But at the end of these seventy years, Tyre will be like the song about a prostitute,
Ní àkókò náà a ó gbàgbé Tire fún àádọ́rin ọdún, ọjọ́ ayé ọba kan. Ṣùgbọ́n ní òpin àádọ́rin ọdún wọ̀nyí, yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ sí Tire gẹ́gẹ́ bí orin àgbèrè:
16 “Take a lyre and walk around the city, forgotten prostitute! Play and sing so people will remember you!”
“Mú dùùrù kan, rìn kọjá láàrín ìlú, ìwọ àgbèrè tí a ti gbàgbé; lu dùùrù dáradára, kọ ọ̀pọ̀ orin, kí a lè ba à rántí rẹ.”
17 After seventy years, the Lord will restore Tyre. But then she will go back to hiring herself out as a prostitute, selling herself to all the kingdoms of the world.
Ní òpin àádọ́rin ọdún náà, Olúwa yóò bá Tire jà. Òun yóò sì padà sí àyálò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí panṣágà, yóò sì máa ṣe òwò rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ilẹ̀ ọba tí ó wà ní ilẹ̀ ayé.
18 However, her profits and what she earns will consecrated to the Lord. They won't be kept or saved up, for her business earnings will go to those who worship the Lord, to provide them with plenty of food and good clothes.
Síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ èrè rẹ̀ àti owó iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ni a ó yà sọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa; a kò ní kó wọn pamọ́ tàbí kí a há wọn mọ́wọ́. Ère rẹ̀ ni a ó fi fún àwọn tí ó ń gbé níwájú Olúwa, fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ oúnjẹ àti aṣọ.
