Ezekiel 27
1 Yahweh said this to me:
Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona kama:
2 “You human, sing a funeral song about Tyre.
“Wuod dhano, chwog wer miywagogo Turo.
3 [The city of] is located [on an island] at the edge of the sea, and their merchants (traded/bought and sold goods) with people-groups [who live] along many seacoasts. This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say [that you should tell them]: ‘You [people of] Tyre said that your [city] was very beautiful.
Wachne Turo ma en dala moger e dho nam kendo maloko ohala gi ji duto modak e dho nam ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “‘Yaye Turo, iwacho niya, “Ajaber kendo alongʼo chuth.”
4 You controlled what was bought and sold by people who lived along the sea. Those who built your [city] caused it to become very beautiful.
Kar dakni ne ni e dho nembe madongo; joma nogeri nogeri ma jaber kendo malongʼo chuth.
5 You were like [SIM] a huge ship that was built from the from pine/cypress [trees] on Hermon [Mountain]. Then they took cedar [wood] from Lebanon to make a mast for the ship.
Negiloso bepeni duto gi yiende mabeyo moa Senir; ne gikaw bepe mag sida moa Lebanon mondo gilosnigo tanga mar yie?
6 They carved your oars from oak trees from the Bashan [region]. They made the deck from cypress/pine wood from Cyprus [island], and they covered [the decks] with ivory.
Ngai to ne giseloso gi bepe mag yiend ober moa Bashan, to bepe mag saipras moa e dho nembe mag saipras ema ne gilosogo kuonde bet magi, mane olangi gi lak liech.
7 The sails for the ship were made from fine embroidered linen from Egypt, and those sails were like flags that people could see [far away]. For shade they [hung pieces of] blue and purple cloth [brought] from [people living on] Cyprus [island].
Tangani nolos gi nanga maber mochwe gi usi moa Misri kendo mano ema nobedo bandechi; tandaruwa moumigo nokiko rambulu gi ralik, moa e dho nembe mag Elisha.
8 Men from Sidon and Arvad [cities] pulled the oars; the men who steered the boat were skilled men from Tyre.
Jo-Sidon gi Arvad ema ne kiewoni ngai; yaye Turo, jogi molony ema ne jokwangʼ kaka jogi ma jonam.
9 Experienced craftsmen from Byblos [city on the coast] (did the caulking/filled the spaces between the planks in the sides) of the ship. Sailors from many countries came in their ships to buy and sell goods there.
Jopecho mongʼith moa Gebal noidhi kaka jokiew ngai kendo jochung nanga mari. Yiedhi duto manie nam kaachiel gi joma gitingʼo nobiro iri mondo gilok ohala gi mwandugi.
10 Men from [as far away as] Persia, Lydia, and Libya were [soldiers] in your army. They hung their shields and helmets on [the walls of] your [city], and that caused people to admire your city.
“‘Jo-Pasia, gi jo-Lidia kod jo-Put ne gin jolweny magi makedoni. Negiliero okumbnigi gi ogutegi mag lweny e ohingagi kendo mano nomiyi duongʼ.
11 Men from Arvad and Helech [cities were watchmen] on the walls [of your city]; men from Gammad [town] were in your towers. They [also] hung their shields on your walls; they also caused your [city] to be very beautiful.
Jo-Arvad kod jo-Helek nolworo ohingani koni gi koni karito; Jo-Gamad noidho wi uteu moger maboyo mag rito. Ne gingʼawo okumbnigi molworo ohinga magi; kendo negimiyo berni obedo malongʼo chuth.
12 Because of the many things that you had [to trade], men from Tarshish [in Spain] sent merchants who brought silver, iron, tin, and lead to trade for things that you had.
“‘Jo-Tarshish noloko kodi nikech mwandugi mangʼeny mag ohala; ne giwilo kodi fedha gi nyinyo gi chumbe, kod kite mamoko ma nengogi tek.
13 [Merchants from] Greece, Tubal, and Meshech brought slaves and things made from bronze to trade for things that you had.

14 [Men from] Beth-Togarmah [in Armenia] brought work horses, war horses, and mules to trade for things that you had.

15 Merchants came to you from Rhodes [island]. [People from] nations along the coast traded with you; they brought (ivory/elephant tusks) and [valuable black] ebony [wood] to trade for things that you had.
“‘Jo-Rodo bende noloko kodi, kendo ogendini mathoth modak e dho nembe bende nongʼiewo gik moko kuomi, ka gichuli lak liech kod bepe marotenge motegno kendo mabeyo.
16 Because you had very many things [to trade], people from Syria brought to you valuable turquoise stones, purple [cloth], embroidered [cloth], fine linen [cloth], and [jewelry made from] coral and rubies to trade for your things.
“‘Jo-Aram bende ne oloko kodi nikech gik mane iloso mangʼeny. Gin ne giwilo kodi tarkus, gi lewni maralik, gi lewni mochwe gi lwedo, gi lewni ma nengogi tek kaka korol gi rubi. Ne giwilo kodi gigi ka gin to gikawo gigi mag ohala.
17 Men from Judah and Israel brought wheat from Minnith [city in Ammon], and figs, honey, [olive] oil, and ointment to trade for your things.
“‘Jo-Juda gi jo-Israel bende noloko kodi. Gin ne giwilo kodi ngano moa Minith gi kal, gi mor kich, gi mo kod yedhe madungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar mane giwilo gi mwandugi mag ohala.
18 Because you had very many things [to trade], men from Damascus brought wine from Helbon [town] and white wool from the Zahar [area] to trade for many things that you had.
“‘Jo-Damaski notimo kodi ohala, ka giwilo kodi divai moa Helbon kod yie rombe moa Zahar nikech gik mane iloso mangʼeny, kendo nikech mwandu maduongʼ mag gigeni mag ohala.
19 Greek men from the Uzal [area] brought things made of iron, and cassia [spice], and [fragrant] calamus [seeds] to trade for things that you had.
“‘Jo-Dan gi jo-Yunani moa Uzal bende nongʼiewo mwandugi mag ohala. Ne giwilo kodi nyinyo mothedhi, gi yedhe maloso chiemo mamit kod modhi miwirruokgo.

22 Merchants from Sheba and Raamah [in Arabia] brought many kinds of very good spices and jewels and gold to exchange for things that you had.

23 [Men came from] Haran, Canneh, Eden, Sheba, Asshur and Kilmad [in Mesopotamia] with their goods.

24 They brought pretty things to trade: Blue cloth, embroidered cloth, and rugs of [many] colors that were [rolled up and] tied with ropes.
Negibiro e chirni magi duto, ka giwilo kodi nengni mabeyo beyo maralik mogorie kido mabeyo, kaachiel gi mukeka mar dier ot mogorie kido malombo wangʼ kod tonde mokadi motegno.
25 Cargo ships from Tarshish carried [all] those things that you traded; and the warehouses on your island were full of all those things.’”
“‘Yiedhi madongo moa Tarshish ema ne mwandugi mag ohala. Ne ichalo gi yiedhi manie nam motingʼore mapek.
26 “‘The men who row your boats took [the ships full of] cargo out on the stormy seas. But the strong east wind wrecked those cargo boats.
Jokwangʼ ngai magi teri oko nyaka e nembe madongo. To kata kamano yamb ugwe biro ngʼinji matindo tindo e chuny nam.
27 Everything in the boats (was lost/sank to the bottom of the sea)— all the valuable cargo [DOU] and [many of] [HYP] the sailors and ship pilots, the ship workers and merchants and soldiers. On the day that the ships were wrecked, many of those on the ships sank to the bottom of the sea.
Mwanduni gi gik milokogo ohala, gi gik mikano; gi jogi makedoni e pi, gi jokwangʼ magi, gi jogi mahondhoni yiedhi; gi jo-ohala magi, gi jolweny magi duto kod ji duto moidho yieno, biro nimo e chuny nam e odiechiengʼ ma yieno nobarre.
28 [The people in cities along] the coast trembled when they heard your ship pilots cry out.
Mier manie dho nembe noyiengni matek, ka jokwangʼ mag-gi ywak matek.
29 All the men who remained who pulled the oars left the ships; the sailors and pilots [go to the shore and] stand on the beach.
Jogo duto makiewo ngai nowe yiedhigi; Jolweny makedo e pi kod jokwangʼ duto nochungʼ kodhier e dho nam.
30 They cry aloud because of [what has happened to] your [wealth], and they weep bitterly. They throw dirt on their heads and roll around in ashes.
Ginitingʼ dwondgi mi giywag malit nikech in; kendo ginibuk wiyegi gi buru ka gingʼielore e buru.
31 They shave their heads to show that they are very sad because of [what has happened to] you, and they put on rough sackcloth. They weep for you very bitterly and mourn for you.
Gibiro lielo wiyegi nikech in kendo gibiro rwako lep ywak. Gibiro ywagi malit ka chunygi nigi kuyo mapek.
32 While they wail and mourn because of what has happened to you, they sing this sad funeral song: “There was certainly never [RHQ] a city like Tyre that now is silent, covered by the waves of the sea.”
Kinde ma gibiro dengo kendo giywagi to ginichuogni wer ma giywagigo kama: “Bende nitie kama osekethi kaka Turo ma en dala ma nembe olworo?”
33 The goods that your merchants traded were things that pleased the people of many countries. Kings in very distant places became rich from the wealth that they obtained from trading with you.
Ka gigi mag ohala ne ikwangʼo e nembe to ne pinje mangʼeny obedo mamor, imiyo ruodhi mangʼeny mag pinje odoko jomoko gi mwandugi mathoth kod gigi mag ohala.
34 But now your city is like a ship [MET] that is wrecked in the sea, and everything that was in it is broken, at the bottom of the sea. All of your cargo and your sailors have sunk to the bottom of the sea along with the ships.
To koro ibarori e nam mi isikori piny e chuny pige; mwanduni mag ohala duto kaachiel gi jokwangʼ magi osenimo kodi piny.
35 All the people who live along the seacoast are appalled/horrified because of what has happened to you. Their kings are very horrified, [causing] their faces to be twisted [as they watch].
Ji duto modak e dho nembe dhogi omoko kuom gima osetimoreni; ruodhi mag-gi obwok matek kendo gitetni bende luoro omakogi.
36 The merchants of the [other] nations shake their heads [because it is difficult for them to believe what has happened]; your city has disappeared, and it will not exist any more.’”
Jo-ohala madongo manie pinje mamoko liyo ka wuoro; giko mari obedo marach miwuoro, kendo ok nochak oneni kendo.’”
