Ezekiel 27
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
2 “And you, son of man, lift up a lamentation concerning Tyre, and you have said to Tyre:
“Kaakano, ggwe omwana w’omuntu tandika okukungubagira Ttuulo.
3 O dweller on the entrances of the sea, Merchant of the peoples to many islands, Thus said Lord YHWH: O Tyre, you have said, I [am] the perfection of 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.”

25 Ships of Tarshish are journeying [with] your merchandise for you, And you are filled and honored greatly, In the heart of the seas.
“‘Ebyombo eby’e Talusiisi bye byatambuzanga ebyamaguzi byo. Era wajjula n’oba n’ebintu bingi wakati mu nnyanja.
26 Those rowing you have brought you into great waters, The east wind has broken you in the heart of the seas.
Abakubi b’enkasi bakutwala awali amayengo amangi. Naye omuyaga ogw’Ebuvanjuba gulikumenyeramenyera wakati mu nnyanja.
27 Your wealth and your wares, Your merchandise, your mariners, And your pilots, strengtheners of your breach, And the traders of your merchandise, And all your men of war, who [are] in you, And in all your assembly that [is] in your midst, Fall into the heart of the seas in the day of your fall,
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 At the voice of the cry of your pilots the outskirts shake.
Eddoboozi ly’okukaaba kw’abalunnyanja bo, kulikankanya ebyalo ebiri ku lubalama lw’ennyanja.
29 And all handling an oar come down from their ships, Mariners [and] all the pilots of the sea stand on the land,
Abakubi b’enkasi bonna balyabulira ebyombo byabwe; n’abagoba n’abalunnyanja bonna baliyimirira ku lubalama lw’ennyanja.
30 And have sounded with their voice for you, And cry bitterly, and cause dust to go up on their heads, They roll themselves in ashes;
Baliyimusa amaloboozi gaabwe ne bakukaabira nnyo; era baliteeka enfuufu ku mitwe gyabwe ne beevulunga mu vvu.
31 And they have made themselves bald for you, And they have girded on sackcloth, And they have wept for you, In bitterness of soul—a bitter mourning.
Balikumwera emitwe gyabwe, era Balyambala ebibukutu. Balikukaabira n’emmeeme ezennyamidde nga bakukungubaga n’emitima egijjudde ennyiike.
32 And their sons have lifted up a lamentation for you, And they have lamented over you, Who [is] as Tyre? As the cut-off one in the midst of the sea?
Balikukungubagira nga bwe bakuba ebiwoobe nga boogera nti, Ani eyali asirisibbwa nga Ttuulo eyeetooloddwa ennyanja?
33 With the outgoing of your wares from the seas, You have filled many peoples, With the abundance of your riches, and your merchandise, You have enriched [the] kings of earth.

34 At the time of [your] being broken by the seas in the depths of the waters, Your merchandise and all your assembly have fallen in your midst.
Kaakano ennyanja ekumazeewo, mu buziba bw’amazzi; ebyamaguzi byo n’ab’omu kyombo kyo bonna babbidde naawe.
35 All inhabitants of the islands have been astonished at you, And their kings have been severely afraid, They have been troubled in countenance.
Abantu bonna ab’oku lubalama lw’ennyanja bafunye ensisi, era ne bakabaka baabwe bajjudde entiisa tebafaananika mu maaso olw’entiisa.
36 Merchants among the peoples have shrieked for you, You have been terrors, and you are not—for all time!”
Abasuubuzi ab’omu mawanga bakufuuyira empa; otuuse ku nkomerero embi, so tolibeerawo nate ennaku zonna.’”
