< Isaiah 23 >

1 The burden of Tyre. Howl, you ships of Tarshish! For it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in. From the land of Kittim it is revealed to them.
Ọ̀rọ̀-ìmọ̀ tí ó kan Tire. Hu, ìwọ ọkọ̀ ojú omi Tarṣiṣi! Nítorí a ti pa Tire run láìsí ilé tàbí èbúté. Láti ilẹ̀ Saipurọsi ni ọ̀rọ̀ ti wá sọ́dọ̀ wọn.
2 Be still, you inhabitants of the coast, you whom the merchants of Sidon that pass over the sea have replenished.
Dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn erékùṣù àti ẹ̀yin oníṣòwò ti Sidoni, ẹ̀yin tí àwọn a wẹ Òkun ti sọ dọlọ́rọ̀.
3 On great waters, the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue. She was the market of nations.
Láti orí àwọn omi ńlá ni irúgbìn ìyẹ̀fun ti ilẹ̀ Ṣihori ti wá; ìkórè ti odò Naili ni owóòná Tire, òun sì ti di ibùjókòó ọjà fún àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè.
4 Be ashamed, Sidon; for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying, “I have not travailed, nor given birth, neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins.”
Kí ojú kí ó tì ọ́, ìwọ Sidoni àti ìwọ àní ìwọ ilé ààbò ti Òkun, nítorí Òkun ti sọ̀rọ̀. “Èmi kò tí ì wà ní ipò ìrọbí tàbí ìbímọ rí Èmi kò tí ì wo àwọn ọmọkùnrin tàbí kí n tọ́ àwọn ọmọbìnrin dàgbà rí.”
5 When the report comes to Egypt, they will be in anguish at the report of Tyre.
Nígbà tí ọ̀rọ̀ bá dé Ejibiti, wọn yóò wà ní ìpayínkeke nípa ìròyìn láti Tire.
6 Pass over to Tarshish! Wail, you inhabitants of the coast!
Kọjá wá sí Tarṣiṣi; pohùnréré, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn erékùṣù.
7 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her far away to travel?
Ǹjẹ́ èyí náà ni ìlú àríyá yín, ògbólógbòó ìlú náà, èyí tí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ ti sìn ín lọ láti lọ tẹ̀dó sí ilẹ̀ tí ó jìnnà réré.
8 Who has planned this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, whose merchants are princes, whose traders are the honorable of the earth?
Ta ló gbèrò èyí sí Tire, ìlú aládé, àwọn oníṣòwò ẹni tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ-aládé tí àwọn oníṣòwò wọ́n jẹ́ ìlúmọ̀míká ní orílẹ̀ ayé?
9 The LORD of Armies has planned it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.
Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti ṣètò rẹ̀, láti tẹrí ìgbéraga àti ògo rẹ ba àti láti rẹ gbogbo àwọn ọlọ́lá ilé ayé sílẹ̀.
10 Pass through your land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish. There is no restraint any more.
Tu ilẹ̀ rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti ipadò odò Ejibiti, ìwọ ọmọbìnrin Tarṣiṣi, nítorí ìwọ kò ní èbúté mọ́.
11 He has stretched out his hand over the sea. He has shaken the kingdoms. The LORD has ordered the destruction of Canaan’s strongholds.
Olúwa ti na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ jáde sí orí Òkun ó sì mú kí àwọn ilẹ̀ ọba wárìrì. Ó ti pa àṣẹ kan tí ó kan Kenaani pé kí a pa ilé ààbò rẹ̀ run.
12 He said, “You shall rejoice no more, you oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon. Arise, pass over to Kittim. Even there you will have no rest.”
Ó wí pé, “Kò sí àríyá fún ọ mọ́, ìwọ wúńdíá ti Sidoni, tí a ti tẹ̀ mọ́lẹ̀ báyìí! “Gbéra, rékọjá lọ sí Saipurọsi, níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú o kì yóò ní ìsinmi.”
13 Behold, the land of the Chaldeans. This people didn’t exist. The Assyrians founded it for those who dwell in the wilderness. They set up their towers. They overthrew its palaces. They made it a ruin.
Bojú wo ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Babeli, àwọn ènìyàn tí kò jámọ́ nǹkan kan báyìí. Àwọn Asiria ti sọ ọ́ di ibùgbé àwọn ohun ẹranko aginjù; wọn ti gbé ilé ìṣọ́ ìtẹ̀gùn wọn sókè, wọ́n ti tú odi rẹ̀ sí ìhòhò wọ́n sì ti sọ ọ́ di ààtàn.
14 Howl, you ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste!
Hu, ìwọ ọkọ̀ ojú omi Tarṣiṣi; wọ́n ti pa odi rẹ̀ run!
15 It will come to pass in that day that Tyre will be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king. After the end of seventy years it will be to Tyre like in the song of the prostitute.
Ní àkókò náà a ó gbàgbé Tire fún àádọ́rin ọdún, ọjọ́ ayé ọba kan. Ṣùgbọ́n ní òpin àádọ́rin ọdún wọ̀nyí, yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ sí Tire gẹ́gẹ́ bí orin àgbèrè:
16 Take a harp; go about the city, you prostitute that has been forgotten. Make sweet melody. Sing many songs, that you may be remembered.
“Mú dùùrù kan, rìn kọjá láàrín ìlú, ìwọ àgbèrè tí a ti gbàgbé; lu dùùrù dáradára, kọ ọ̀pọ̀ orin, kí a lè ba à rántí rẹ.”
17 It will happen after the end of seventy years that the LORD will visit Tyre. She will return to her wages, and will play the prostitute with all the kingdoms of the world on the surface of the earth.
Ní òpin àádọ́rin ọdún náà, Olúwa yóò bá Tire jà. Òun yóò sì padà sí àyálò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí panṣágà, yóò sì máa ṣe òwò rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ilẹ̀ ọba tí ó wà ní ilẹ̀ ayé.
18 Her merchandise and her wages will be holiness to the LORD. It will not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise will be for those who dwell before the LORD, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.
Síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ èrè rẹ̀ àti owó iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ni a ó yà sọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa; a kò ní kó wọn pamọ́ tàbí kí a há wọn mọ́wọ́. Ère rẹ̀ ni a ó fi fún àwọn tí ó ń gbé níwájú Olúwa, fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ oúnjẹ àti aṣọ.
