Ezekiel 27
1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
2 'And thou, son of man, lift up concerning Tyre a lamentation, and thou hast said to Tyre:
“Mwanakomana womunhu, chema pamusoro peTire.
3 O dweller on the entrances of the sea, Merchant of the peoples unto many isles, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: O Tyre, thou — thou hast said: I [am] the perfection of beauty.
