Ezekiel 27
1 Yahweh said this to me:
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik:
2 “You human, sing a funeral song about Tyre.
“Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, yuk soko on in mas misa an nu sin acn Tyre,
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.
siti se ma oan weacn uh, su orek kuka nu sin mutunfacl nukewa ma oan weacn uh. Fahk nu sel kas su LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk inge: “Tyre, kom tuh filangkin oasku lom an.
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.
Acn sum pa meoa uh. Mwet musaikomla uh orekomla oana soko oak na kato.
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.
Elos oru ipinsak lom nukewa ke sak fir Fineol Hermon, Ac soko sak cedar liki acn Lebanon nu ke kwesu lom.
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.
Elos eis sak oak Bashan me in orek oac kac, Ac orala falful ke oak an ke sak pine Cyprus me, Ac nawela ke ivory.
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].
Nes nu ke oak an orekla ke nuknuk linen, Aok, nuknuk akul su tuku Egypt me, Arulana mahnek in liyeyuk yen loesla me. Ac nuknuk sunyen twek orekla ke nuknuk wowo, Tuhn kac uh folfol ac sroninmutuk, ma tuku Cyprus me.
8 Men from Sidon and Arvad [cities] pulled the oars; the men who steered the boat were skilled men from Tyre.
Mwet in kal lom elos mwet Sidon ac Arvad, Ac mwet pisrla in us oak an mwet na lom sifacna.
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.
Mwet kamtu fin oak uh mwet na pah, Su tuku Byblos me. Selu fin oak nukewa su kalkal meoa Elos tuku moul ke acn in kuka lom.
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.
“Mwet mweun lun Persia, Lydia ac Libya elos inmasrlon mwet mweun lom. Elos sripisrya mwe loeyuk lalos ac susu in mweun lalos in lohm sin mwet mweun lom. Elos pa akpwengpengye kom.
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.
Mwet mweun liki siti Arvad pa mwet topang su karingin pot in siti lom, ac mwet Gamad pa karingin tower lom uh. Elos sripisrya mwe loeyuk lalos ke pot lom uh, ac elos inge pa akkatoye kom uh.
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.
“Kom som kukakin ma puspis lom in acn Tarsis, ac kom eis silver, iron, tin ac lead in sang aol ma kom kukakunla.
13 [Merchants from] Greece, Tubal, and Meshech brought slaves and things made from bronze to trade for things that you had.

Kom kukakunla ma lom in moli horse in orekma, horse in mweun, ac mule liki acn Beth Togarmah.
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.
Mwet Dedan elos oayapa tuku moul yurum, ac mwet in acn puspis su oan sisken meoa uh oayapa use ivory ac ebony in aolla mwe kasrup lom.
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.
Mwet Syria elos molela pac mwe kuka lom ac ma puspis ma kom orala. Na elos sot nu sum wek emerald ac ruby, nuknuk sroninmutuk, nuknuk akul, nuknuk srik eoa, ac ma saok inkof uh, in sang moli ma oasr yurum.
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.
Mwet Judah ac mwet Israel elos moli mwe kuka lom ke wheat, honey, oil in olive, ac mwe akyuye mongo.
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.
Mwet Damascus elos oayapa moul yurum ke mwe kasrup su oasr yurum, ac elos moli ke wain lun Helbon ac unen sheep Sahar me.
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.

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.
Mwet Arabia ac mwet leum lun facl Kedar elos moli mwe kuka lom ke sheep fusr, sheep mukul, ac nani.
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.
Mwet kuka lun acn Sheba ac Raamah elos use mwe keng na wowo, wek saok, ac gold, in sang moli mwe kuka lom.
23 [Men came from] Haran, Canneh, Eden, Sheba, Asshur and Kilmad [in Mesopotamia] with their goods.
Siti lun Haran, Canneh ac Eden, oayapa mwet kuka lun Sheba ac siti lun Asshur ac Chilmad — elos kewa orek kuka ac moul yurum.
24 They brought pretty things to trade: Blue cloth, embroidered cloth, and rugs of [many] colors that were [rolled up and] tied with ropes.
Elos kukakin nu sum nuknuk na oasku, nuknuk sroninmutuk ac nuknuk akul, ac mwe loeyuk na kato ma nu in lohm, ac sucl ac ah na wowo.
25 Cargo ships from Tarshish carried [all] those things that you traded; and the warehouses on your island were full of all those things.’”
Mwe kuka lom inge wunyuk ke un oak na lulap. “Kom oana soko oak meoa Ma sessesla ke mwe kuka.
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 mwet in kal lom uh kuhlukinkomla nu meoa, Sie eng kutulap me kunausla oak okom infulwen meoa.
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.
Mwe kasrup ke mwe kuka lom nukewa, Ac mwet selu lom nukewa, Mwet kamtu fin oak uh wi mwet in kuka uh, Ac mwet mweun nukewa — Elos nukewa tuhlac in meoa uh Ke pacl oak uh musalla.
28 [The people in cities along] the coast trembled when they heard your ship pilots cry out.
Pusren mwet walomla uh Lohngyuk finmes uh.
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.
“Oak nukewa wanginla mwet fac, Ac mwet nukewa utyak nu finmes ah.
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.
Elos nukewa arulana asor ac tung keim, Na elos sisak kutkut nu fin sifalos ac oan ipippip in apat uh.
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.
Ke sripom elos mangsrasrala, Ac nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa. Insialos arulana oela ke elos tung mwemelil.
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.”
Elos yuk on in mas misa soko inge keim: ‘Su ac ku in lumweyuk nu ke acn Tyre — Tyre, su oan misla ye kof uh?
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.
Meet, ke mwe kuka lom uh sasla meoa uh, Kom akfalye enenu lun mutunfacl nukewa. Tokosra uh kasrupi Ke mwe kuka puspis lom.
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.
Inge kom musalla in meoa uh, Ac kom tili nu yen loal inkof uh. Mwe kasrup lom ac mwet orekma lom nukewa Wi kom na wanginla inkof uh.’
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].
“Mwet nukewa su muta weacn uh elos oela ke mwe ongoiya ma sikyak nu sum. Finne tokosra lalos, elos sangengla pac, ac mutalos akkalemye sangeng lalos.
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.’”
Kom wanginla, wanginla ma pahtpat. Ac mwet kuka faclu nufon elos sangeng ma lulap, mweyen elos sensen mu elos ac sun ongoiya se ma sikyak nu sum uh.”
