Ezekyèl 27
1 Anplis, pawòl SENYÈ a te rive kote mwen. Li te di:
Again the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
2 “Ou menm, fis a lòm, leve yon lamantasyon sou Tyr.
“Now you, son of man, begin a lamentation concerning 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 say to Tyre, who lives within the gates of the sea, merchants of peoples to many islands, the Lord Yahweh says this to you: Tyre, you 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 with cypress from Mount Hermon; they took 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.
They made your oars from the oaks of Bashan; they made your decks out of cypress wood from Cyprus, and they overlaid them with ivory.
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,
Your sails were made from colorful linen from Egypt that served as your banner; the colors of blue and purple from the coasts of Elishah are used for the awning on your boat.
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.
Those who were living in Sidon and Arvad were your rowers; the sages of Tyre were within you; they were your pilots.

These were your dealers in ornate robes of violet cloths with woven colors, and in blankets of multicolored, embroidered, and well-woven cloth in your marketplaces.
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 the transporters of your merchandise! So you were filled up, heavily laden with cargo 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 vast seas; the eastern wind has broken you in the middle of them.
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 wealth, merchandise, and trade goods; your sailors and pilots, and ship builders; your traders of merchandise and all the men of war who are in you, and all your crew—they will sink into the depths of the sea on the day of your destruction.
28 Nan son kri a pilòt ou yo, tè patiraj yo va souke.
Cities at the sea will tremble at the sound of your pilots' cry;
29 Tout moun ki konn manyen zaviwon, mesye maren ak tout pilòt lanmè yo va desann kite bato yo. Yo va kanpe atè,
All those who handle oars will come down from their ships; mariners and all the pilots on the sea will 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.
Then they will make you listen to their voice and will wail bitterly; they will cast dust up on their heads. They will roll about in 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.
They will shave their heads bald for you and bind themselves with sackcloth, and they will weep bitterly over you and they will cry out.
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?’
They will lift up their wails of lamentation for you and sing dirges over you, Who is like Tyre, who has now been brought to silence in the middle 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 merchandise went ashore from the sea, it satisfied many peoples; you enriched the kings of the earth with your great wealth and 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.
But when you were shattered by the seas, by deep waters, your merchandise and all your crew sank!
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 coasts were appalled at you, and their kings shuddered in horror! Their faces trembled!
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 of the people hiss at you; you have become a horror, and you will be no more forever.”
