Ezekiel 27
1 Yahweh said this to me:
Niheo amako indraike ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
2 “You human, sing a funeral song about Tyre.
Ie amy zao ana’ ondatio, onjono fandalañe t’i Tsore, le ano ty hoe t’i Tsore,
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.
O ry mpimoneñe am-pitolia’ o riakeo, mpanao balike ho am’ ondaty an-tokonose maroo, inao ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: O Tsore! hoe ty asa’o: ginoke an-katsomerentseren-draho.
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.
Anteñateña’ i riakey o efe-tane’oo naho nahafonitse ty hatsaratsea’o o mpandranji’oo.
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.
Hene nanoe’ iereo ami’ty nato’ i Senire o varamban-daka’oo; nangalak’ amo mendorave’ i Libanoneo, hamboara’ iareo o bodan-dai’oo.
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.
Amo kobai’ i Basaneo ty nandranjia’ iareo o fivei’oo; an-tsifa boak’ amo tokonose’ i Kitio ty nitsenea’ o nte-Asoreo o fiambesa’oo,
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].
Lamba leny marerarera soa vinahotse boake Mitsraime añe ty nalama’o ho lai’o; manga naho malo-mavo boak’ an-tokonose’ i Elisà ty nanaroñe azo.
8 Men from Sidon and Arvad [cities] pulled the oars; the men who steered the boat were skilled men from Tyre.
Nimpivei’o o nte-Tsidoneo naho o nte Arvadeo; tam-po’o ao, ry Tsore, ondaty mahihi’oo, o ni-mpanehak’ azoo.
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.
O androanavi’ i Gebaleo naho o mahihi’eo ty nanosoke o varakivaraky ama’oo; songa tama’o ao o sambon-driakeo rekets’ o mpiandria’eo nifanakalo kilankañe ama’o.
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.
Nimpitraok’ amo lahindefo’oo, o nte-Paraseo naho o nte-Lodeo rekets’ o nte-Poteo, ondaty mpialy; naradorado’ iareo ama’o o fikala’ iareo naho o aron-doha’eo; naràm-bintañe ama’e irehe.
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.
Niariary an-kijoli’o eo o lahindefo’oo mindre amo nte-Arvadeo, naho tam-pitalakesañ’ abo’o ao o nte-Gamadeo; naseba’ iareo amo rindri’oo mb’atia mb’atia o fikalan-defo’eo; nifonira’ iareo ty hamontramontra’o.
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.
Nimpanao balibalik’ ama’o t’i Tarsise amy fibodobodoam-bara’ey; navaro’ iareo an-tsena’o ao ty volafoty, viñe, kankiñe, vaho firake.
13 [Merchants from] Greece, Tubal, and Meshech brought slaves and things made from bronze to trade for things that you had.
Nimpanao balike ho azo t’Iavane naho i Tobale vaho i Meseke, nanao takinak’ ama’o ami’ty fiai’ondaty naho ami’ ty valàñe torisìke.
14 [Men from] Beth-Togarmah [in Armenia] brought work horses, war horses, and mules to trade for things that you had.
Nanao kinanga amo tsena’oo ty anjomba’ i Togarmà rekets’ o soavala’eo naho soavalan-aly vaho borìke.
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.
Nimpanao balik’ ama’o o nte-Dedaneo, tokonose tsiefa ty nikalo am-pità’o eo; nibanabana tsifa-foty naho mañary.
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.
Nanao takinak’ ama’o ka t’i Arame amo hatsifotofoton-draha tsinene’oo, nanao takinak’ an-drobikà naho malòmavo naho raha soa vinahotse naho leny marerarera naho hareañe vaho hange.
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.
Nanao balik’ ama’o ka t’Iehodà naho ty tane’ Israele; nendese’ iareo vare-bole boake Minite mb’an-tsena’o ao, naho raha mafiry naho tantele naho menake vaho solike.
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.
Nikalo ama’o ka t’i Damesèke ami’ty fibodobodoan-draha namboare’o, ami’ty vara tsy efa, naho divay boak’e Kelbone vaho volonañondry mikotritriake.
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.
Nikaloe’ i V’Dane naho Iavane nte-Ozale viñe niloeloe, le amo kilanka’o iabio ty sena naho vinda mañitse.
20 [Merchants came from] Dedan [in southern Edom] bringing saddle blankets to trade for things that you had.
Nanao balik’ ama’o t’i Dedane: lamba fanoeñe an-tsarete.
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.
O nte-Arabeo naho o roandria’ i Kedareo nanao takinak’ ama’o amo vik’ añondrio, o añondrilahio, vaho amo ose-lahio, nimpikalo i raha rey iereo.
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.
I Sebà naho i Raama ni-mpanao balike; nanao takinak’ amo tsena’oo an-tsakày naho vatosoa vaho volamena.
23 [Men came from] Haran, Canneh, Eden, Sheba, Asshur and Kilmad [in Mesopotamia] with their goods.
Songa nifanakalo ama’o ty Karane naho i Kanè naho i Edene, o mpampibali’ i Sebao, i Asore vaho i Kilmade.
24 They brought pretty things to trade: Blue cloth, embroidered cloth, and rugs of [many] colors that were [rolled up and] tied with ropes.
Nilahatse ama’o ami’ty raha maro i mpanao takinak’ ama’o rezay; tañate’ ty kilanka’o ao ty sarimbo manga naho lamba soa vinahotse naho vata pea fisiky fanjaka, finehe taly naho rinanjy ami’ty mendoraveñe.
25 Cargo ships from Tarshish carried [all] those things that you traded; and the warehouses on your island were full of all those things.’”
Ihe ty nampionjoñe o sambo’ i Tarsiseo, o mpanao takinake ho azoo; nipea irehe, nitoabotoabotse añivo’ i riakey ao.
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.
Ninday azo nitoañe riake laleke o mpivei’oo, fe namolak’ azo añivo’ o riakeo i tiok’ atiñanañey.
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.
Ty vara’o, o tsena’oo, o fifampikaloa’oo, o mpivei’oo, o mpaneha’oo, o mpandite-laka’oo, o mpanao balibalik’ ama’oo, ze hene lahin-defo’o ama’o, ze fonga valobohò’o ama’o, songa hijoroboñe am-po’ o riakeo ao amy androm-pirotsaha’oy.
28 [The people in cities along] the coast trembled when they heard your ship pilots cry out.
Hihondrahondra o mpañohok’ azoo ami’ty feon-toreo’o o mpanehakeo.
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.
Songa hizotso amo sambo’eo o mpitàm-piveio, o mpifanehake am-piveio, sindre hijohañe an-tamboho eo o mpanehake an-driakeo
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.
naho hipoña-piarañanañañe, ho janjiñeñe ama’o ao ty fangololoihañe, vaho hampibobò deboke amo añambone iereoo hidrakadrakak’ an-davenok’ ao:
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.
Hifandriritse maròy ty ama’o, naho hisikiñe lamban-gony, vaho hirovetse an- kaferon’arofo naho hangoihoy an-kafairañe.
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.”
Amy fangololoihañey ty hañonjonam-bekom-pandalàñe ho azo am-pirovetañe, ami’ty hoe; Ia ty mañirinkiriñe i Tsore, hambañe amy rinotsake anteñateña’ i riakeiy?
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.
Ie nionjoñe boak’ an-driak’ ao o kilanka’oo, le nilifore’o ty fifokoañe maro; nampañefoefo o mpanjaka’ ty tane toio ami’ty hatsifotofoto’ o kilanka’oo, naho o balibali’oo.
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.
Amy andro namolaha’ i riakey azoy an-kalale’ o ranoo ao, le fonga nirotsake ty fifampibalibalihañe naho i valobohòke ama’oy.
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].
Songa nidaba ty ama’o o mpimoneñ’an-tokonose añeo, naho niazo’ ty anifañe o mpanjaka’eo nitsololòk’ an-daharañe.
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.’”
Mikosìke azo o mpanao takinak’ añivo’ ondatioo; fangetraketrahañe nainai’e irehe, vaho le lia’e tsy ho ao ka.
