< Ezekiel 27 >

1 Yahweh said this to me:
Datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
2 “You human, sing a funeral song about Tyre.
"Hai engkau anak manusia, ucapkanlah suatu ratapan mengenai Tirus,
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.
dan katakanlah kepada Tirus, yang terletak di pintu masuk lautan, dan yang berdagang dengan bangsa-bangsa di banyak daerah pesisir: Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Hai Tirus, engkau berkata: aku kapal yang maha indah.
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.
Wilayahmu di tengah lautan; ahli bangunmu membuat keindahanmu sempurna.
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.
Seluruh badanmu mereka buat dari kayu sanobar Senir, mereka mengambil aras Libanon membuat bagimu tiang layar.
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.
Pohon tarbantin dari Basan dipakai untuk dayungmu; geladakmu mereka buat dari tulang gading ditatahkan di cemara dari pantai Kitim.
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].
Layarmu diperbuat dari lenan halus yang berwarna-warni dari tanah Mesir; itulah tandamu. Dan tendamu diperbuat dari kain ungu tua dan kain ungu muda dari pantai Elisa.
8 Men from Sidon and Arvad [cities] pulled the oars; the men who steered the boat were skilled men from Tyre.
Orang Sidon dan Arwad menjadi pendayungmu; tukang-tukangmu, hai Tirus, berada padamu, mereka menjadi pelaut-pelautmu.
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.
Tua-tua Gebal dengan ahli-ahlinya berada padamu hendak memperbaiki kerusakan-kerusakanmu. Segala kapal laut beserta anak kapalnya berlabuh padamu hendak menukarkan barang dagangannya.
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.
Orang Persia, Lud dan Put, yang menjadi prajuritmu ada dalam ketenteraanmu. Perisai dan ketopong digantungkan padamu; mereka menambah semarakmu.
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.
Orang Arwad dan tentaranya memanjat di atas tembok-tembokmu sekeliling dan orang Gamad di atas menara-menaramu; mereka menggantungkan perisai-perisainya pada tembok-tembokmu sekeliling, mereka membuat keindahanmu sempurna.
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.
Tarsis berdagang dengan engkau dalam segala macam harta yang banyak; mereka menukarkan perak, besi, timah putih dan timah hitam ganti barang-barangmu.
13 [Merchants from] Greece, Tubal, and Meshech brought slaves and things made from bronze to trade for things that you had.
Yawan, Tubal dan Mesekh berdagang dengan engkau; mereka menukarkan budak-budak, barang-barang tembaga ganti barang-barang daganganmu.
14 [Men from] Beth-Togarmah [in Armenia] brought work horses, war horses, and mules to trade for things that you had.
Dari Bet-Togarma mereka menukarkan kuda kereta, kuda tunggang dan bagal ganti barang-barangmu.
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.
Orang Rodos berdagang dengan engkau, banyak daerah pesisir menjadi daerah pasaranmu; mereka membawa kepadamu tulang gading dan kayu arang sebagai upeti.
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.
Edom berdagang dengan engkau karena banyaknya hasil-hasilmu; mereka menukarkan permata batu darah, kain ungu muda, pakaian berwarna-warna, kain lenan halus, karang dan batu delima ganti barang-barangmu.
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.
Yuda dan tanah Israel berdagang dengan engkau; mereka menukarkan gandum dari Minit, mur, madu, minyak dan balsam ganti barang-barang daganganmu.
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.
Damsyik berdagang dengan engkau karena banyaknya hasil-hasilmu, karena segala macam barangmu yang banyak. Anggur dari Helbon, bulu domba dari Sakhar,
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.
dan anggur ditukarkan mereka ganti barang-barangmu; besi yang sudah dikerjakan dari Uzal, kayu teja dan tebu ada di antara barang-barang daganganmu.
20 [Merchants came from] Dedan [in southern Edom] bringing saddle blankets to trade for things that you had.
Dedan berdagang dengan engkau dalam kulit pelana untuk menunggang kuda.
21 Men from Arabia and all the rulers of the Kedar [region] sent merchants to trade lambs and rams and male goats for things that you had.
Arab dan semua pemuka Kedar berdagang dengan engkau dalam anak domba, domba jantan dan kambing jantan; dalam hal-hal itulah mereka berdagang dengan engkau.
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.
Pedagang Syeba dan Raema berdagang dengan engkau; mereka menukarkan yang terbaik dari segala rempah-rempah dan segala batu permata yang mahal-mahal dan emas ganti barang-barangmu.
23 [Men came from] Haran, Canneh, Eden, Sheba, Asshur and Kilmad [in Mesopotamia] with their goods.
Haran, Kane, Eden, Asyur dan Kilmad berdagang dengan engkau.
24 They brought pretty things to trade: Blue cloth, embroidered cloth, and rugs of [many] colors that were [rolled up and] tied with ropes.
Mereka berdagang di pasar-pasarmu dalam jubah-jubah yang maha indah, kain ungu tua, pakaian yang berwarna-warni, permadani yang beraneka warna dan tali berpilin yang teguh.
25 Cargo ships from Tarshish carried [all] those things that you traded; and the warehouses on your island were full of all those things.’”
Kapal-kapal Tarsis membawa barang-barang dagangan ini bagimu. Penuh dengan muatan berat engkau di tengah lautan.
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.
Ke lautan luas pendayungmu membawa engkau. Tetapi badai timur melandamu di tengah lautan.
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.
Hartamu, barangmu, daganganmu, anak kapalmu dan pelaut-pelautmu, tukang-tukangmu dan pedagang-pedagangmu dengan semua prajurit-prajuritmu yang ada padamu, ya, bersama seluruh penumpang-penumpangmu, terbenam dalam lautan pada hari tenggelammu.
28 [The people in cities along] the coast trembled when they heard your ship pilots cry out.
Mendengar teriakan pelautmu gemetarlah tanah daratan.
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.
Mereka turun dari kapalnya, yang mengayun dayung semua. Anak kapal, pelaut semuanya ke daratan lari mereka.
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.
Ratapan kuat, teriakan pahit diperdengarkan terhadapmu; taruh abu di atas kepala, berguling-guling dalam debu.
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.
Mereka menggundul diri, demi engkau, dan melilitkan kain kabung; mereka menangis, jiwa merana, karena engkau; suatu ratapan yang pahit.
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.”
Dalam meratap karena engkau mereka mengucapkan, menangiskan ratapan: Siapa seperti Tirus, yang sudah dimusnahkan di tengah lautan?
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.
Sesudah barangmu datang dari laut engkau mengenyangkan banyak bangsa-bangsa, dengan banyaknya hartamu, daganganmu engkau memperkaya raja-raja dunia.
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.
Sekarang engkau dirusak dan dilenyapkan dari permukaan laut dan tenggelam di dasar lautan; daganganmu dan seluruh penumpangmu tenggelam dengan engkau.
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].
Orang pesisir kaget semua melihatmu; raja-rajanya menggigil, mukanya berkerut.
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.’”
Pedagang bangsa-bangsa bersuit-suit terhadapmu, akhir hidupmu mendahsyatkan, dan lenyap selamanya engkau."
