Ezekyèl 27
1 Anplis, pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen. Li te di:
The word of Jehovah came again to me, saying,
2 “Ou menm, fis a lòm, leve yon lamantasyon sou Tyr.
"You, son of man, take up a lamentation over Tyre;
3 Di a Tyr, ‘Ou ki rete nan antre lanmè a, komèsan a pèp anpil peyi bò kot lanmè yo, Konsa pale Senyè BONDYE a: “O Tyr, ou te di ‘Mwen pafè nan bèlte.’
and tell Tyre, 'You who dwell at the entry of the sea, who are the merchant of the peoples to many islands, thus says Jehovah: "You, Tyre, have said, 'I am perfect in beauty.'
4 Lizyè ou nan kè lanmè yo. Sila ki te bati ou yo te fè bèlte ou pafè.
Your borders are in the heart of the seas; your builders have perfected your beauty.
5 Yo te fè tout planch ou yo ak pye siprè Senir yo. Yo te chache pye sèd Liban yo pou fè ma pou ou.
They have made all your planks of fir trees from Senir; they have taken a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.
6 Ak chèn a Basan, yo te fè zaviwon ou yo. Ak ban ivwa, yo te koupe fè tras sou bwa siprè ki te fèt ak pye sèd ki te mennen sòti jis rive Kittim.
Of the oaks of Bashan have they made your oars; they have made your deck with cypress wood inlaid with ivory, from the islands of Kittim.
7 Vwal ou te fèt ak len fen ki te sòti an Égypte, ki te sèvi kon mak drapo ou. Anba pwotèj solay byen kolore an ble e mov, ki te sòti nan peyi kòt Élischa yo,
Of fine linen with embroidered work from Egypt was your sail, that it might be to you for a banner; blue and purple from the islands of Elishah was your awning.
8 mesye Sidon yo ak Arvad t ap bourade zaviwon ou yo. Mesye saj ou yo, O Tyr, te nan ou. Se yo ki te pilòt yo.
The inhabitants of Sidon and Arvad were your rowers: your wise men, Tyre, were in you, they were your pilots.
9 Ansyen a Guebal yo ak mesye saj li yo te avèk nou, pou repare kote ki ouvri yo. Tout bato lanmè yo ak mèt bato yo te la pou okipe machandiz ou yo.
The old men of Gebal and the wise men of it were in you your repairers of ship seams: all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in you to deal in your merchandise.
10 “‘“Perse, Lud, ak Puth te nan lame ou, mesye lagè ou yo. Yo te pann boukliye ak kas nan ou. Yo te fè grandè ou parèt byen bèl.
Persia and Lud and Put were in your army, your men of war: they hanged the shield and helmet in you; they set forth your comeliness.
11 Fis a Avad yo ak lame ou a te sou miray ou yo, e gèrye yo te pann boukliye yo sou miray ou yo toupatou. Yo te vin pèfeksone bèlte ou a.
The men of Arvad with your army were on your walls all around, and valorous men were in your towers; they hanged their shields on your walls all around; they have perfected your beauty.
12 “‘“Tarsis te kliyan ou, akoz abondans tout kalite richès ou yo. Avèk ajan, fè, fè blan, ak plon, yo te achte machandiz ou yo.
Tarshish was your merchant by reason of the multitude of all kinds of riches; with silver, iron, tin, and lead, they traded for your wares.
13 “‘“Javan, Tubal, ak Méschec te fè komès ak ou. Ak lavi a moun ak veso plen bwonz, yo te achte machandiz ou yo.”
Javan, Tubal, and Meshech, they were your traffickers; they traded the persons of men and vessels of bronze for your merchandise.
14 “‘“Sila nan Beth-Togarma yo te bay cheval ak cheval lagè ak milèt pou byen ou yo.”
They of the house of Togarmah traded for your wares with horses and war horses and mules.
15 “‘“Fis a Dedan yo te fè trafik avèk ou. Anpil peyi kot lanmè yo te vin fè mache ou. Kòn ivwa ak ebèn te pote pou fè twòk.
The men of Dedan were your traffickers; many islands were the market of your hand: they brought you in exchange horns of ivory and ebony.
16 “‘“Syrie te fè trafik avèk ou akoz abondans byen ou yo. Yo te peye pou bagay ou yo ak pyè presye, tenti mov, zèv bwodri, len fen, koray ak pyè woubi.”
Aram was your merchant by reason of the multitude of your handiworks: they traded for your wares with emeralds, purple, and embroidered work, and fine linen, and coral, and rubies.
17 “‘“Juda ak peyi Israël te fè komès ak ou. Ak ble ki sòti Minnith, gato, siwo myèl, lwil ak bom, yo te peye pou machandiz ou.”
Judah, and the land of Israel, they were your traffickers: they traded for your merchandise wheat of Minnith, and confections, and honey, and oil, and balm.
18 “‘“Damas te kliyan ou akoz gwo kantite byen ou yo, akoz gwo kantite a tout kalite richès ou yo, akoz diven Helbon an ak len blan an.”
Damascus was your merchant for the multitude of your handiworks, by reason of the multitude of all kinds of riches, with the wine of Helbon, and white wool.
19 “‘“Vendan ak Javan te peye pou bagay ki sòti Uzal yo. Fè fòje, kasya, ak kann dous te pami machandiz ou yo.”
Vedan and Javan traded with yarn for your wares: bright iron, cassia, and calamus, were among your merchandise.
20 “‘“Dedan te fè komès ak ou nan sèl pou monte cheval.”
Dedan was your trafficker in precious cloths for riding.
21 “‘“Arabie ak tout prens a Kédar yo, te kliyan ou pou jenn mouton, belye ak kabrit yo. Nan tout sa yo, yo te kliyan ou.”
Arabia, and all the princes of Kedar, they were the merchants of your hand; in lambs, and rams, and goats, in these were they your merchants.
22 “‘“Vandè a Séba ak Raema yo te fè trafik ak ou. Yo te peye pou byen ou yo ak pi bon nan tout kalite epis, e ak tout bijou presye ak lò.”
The traffickers of Sheba and Raamah, they were your traffickers; they traded for your wares with the chief of all spices, and with all precious stones, and gold.
23 “‘“Charan, Canné, ak Éden, machann a Séba, Assyrie, ak Kilmad yo te fè komès ak ou.”
Haran and Canneh and Eden, the traffickers of Sheba, Asshur and Chilmad, were your traffickers.
24 Yo te fè komès ak ou nan bèl abiman, nan vètman an ble ak bwodri fen, nan tapi a tout koulè, ak kòd trese byen sere, ki te pami machandiz ou yo.
These were your traffickers in choice wares, in wrappings of blue and embroidered work, and in chests of rich clothing, bound with cords and made of cedar, among your merchandise.
25 “‘“Bato a Tarsis yo te transpòte machandiz ou yo. Epi ou te vin ranpli, te tèlman vin bèl nan kè lanmè yo.
The ships of Tarshish were your caravans for your merchandise: and you were replenished, and made very glorious in the heart of the seas.
26 Mèt zaviwon yo te mennen ou nan gwo dlo. Van lès la te vin kraze ou nan kè lanmè yo.
"'"Your rowers have brought you into great waters: the east wind has broken you in the heart of the seas.
27 Richès ou yo, byen ou yo, machandiz ou yo, maren ak pilòt ou yo, Gwo bòs pou ranje bato yo, vandè ki fè komès machandiz, Ak tout mesye lagè ki nan ou yo, ak tout twoup ki pami ou a, va tonbe antre nan kè lanmè yo nan jou boulvèsman ou an.
Your riches, and your wares, your merchandise, your mariners, and your pilots, your repairers of ship seams, and the dealers in your merchandise, and all your men of war, who are in you, with all your company which is in the midst of you, shall fall into the heart of the seas in the day of your ruin.
28 Nan son kri a pilòt ou yo, tè patiraj yo va souke.
At the sound of the cry of your pilots the suburbs shall shake.
29 Tout moun ki konn manyen zaviwon, mesye maren ak tout pilòt lanmè yo va desann kite bato yo. Yo va kanpe atè,
All who handled the oar, the mariners, and all the pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships; they shall stand on the land,
30 epi yo va fè vwa yo vin tande sou ou, e yo va kriye anmè. Yo va jete pousyè sou tèt yo. Yo va vire tounen nan mitan sann yo.
and shall cause their voice to be heard over you, and shall cry bitterly, and shall cast up dust on their heads, they shall wallow themselves in the ashes:
31 Anplis, yo va fè tèt yo vin chòv pou ou, e mare senti yo ak twal sak. Yo va kriye pou ou nan amètim nanm yo, ak yon plenyen byen anmè.
and they shall make themselves bald for you, and clothe them with sackcloth, and they shall weep for you in bitterness of soul with bitter mourning.
32 Anplis, nan gwo kri yo fè, yo va fè leve yon lamantasyon pou ou, e menm kriye pou ou: ‘Se kilès ki tankou Tyr, tankou sila ki rete an silans nan mitan lanmè a?’
In their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for you, and lament over you, saying, 'Who is there like Tyre, like her who is brought to silence in the midst of the sea?'
33 Lè tout byen ou yo te sòti toupatou sou lanmè yo, ou te fè kè anpil pèp kontan. Ak fòs kantite richès ak machandiz ou yo, ou te fè wa latè yo vin rich.
When your wares went forth out of the seas, you filled many peoples; you enriched the kings of the earth with the multitude of your riches and of your merchandise.
34 Alò, nan moman an, lè ou vin kraze nèt pa lanmè yo, nan fon dlo yo, machandiz ou ak tout twoup ou yo te tonbe pami ou.
In the time that you were broken by the seas in the depths of the waters, your merchandise and all your company fell in your midst.
35 Tout sila ki rete nan peyi kot lanmè yo te vin efreye de ou, e wa yo vin plen ak gwo laperèz. Vizaj yo vin twouble.
All the inhabitants of the islands are astonished at you, and their kings are horribly afraid; they are troubled in their face.
36 Komèsan pami pèp yo vin sifle anlè kon koulèv sou ou. Lafèn ou te vreman etonnan, e ou p ap la ankò, jis pou tout tan.”’”
The merchants among the peoples hiss at you; you are become a terror, and you shall nevermore have any being."'"
