Aịzaya 23
1 Nke a bụ amụma megide Taịa: Tienụ mkpu akwa, unu ụgbọ mmiri nke Tashish nʼihi na e bibiela Taịa, ahapụla ya na-enweghị ụlọ ọbụla maọbụ ọnụ mmiri mbata. Ozi erutela ha aka site nʼobodo Saiprọs.
The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye 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.
2 Derenụ duu, unu ndị bi nʼala ahụ osimiri gbara gburugburu. Unu ndị na-azụ ahịa na Saịdọn, ndị na-ezipụ ụgbọ mmiri na-aga nʼosimiri, kwaanụ akwa.
Be still, ye inhabitants of the coast, thou whom the merchants of Sidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
3 Nʼelu ọtụtụ mmiri dị ukwuu, ka mkpụrụ ọkụkụ Shihoa si bịa, owuwe ihe ubi nke Naịl bụ ihe uru ahịa Taịa, ọ ghọrọ ọma ahịa nke mba dị iche iche.
And on great waters the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue; and she was the mart of nations.
4 Ka ihere mee gị, Saịdọn, na gị bụ ebe e wusiri ike nke osimiri, nʼihi na oke osimiri ekwuola okwu; “Ime emetụbeghị m, nke m ji amụpụta nwa; o nwebeghị mgbe m ji zụpụta ụmụ ndị ikom maọbụ ụmụ ndị inyom tozuru oke.”
Be thou ashamed, O Sidon; for the sea hath spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying, I have not travailed, nor brought forth, neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins.
5 Mgbe ozi ga-abịara ndị Ijipt, ha ga-anọ na mwute nʼihi ozi si Taịa.
When the report cometh to Egypt, they shall be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.
6 Gabiganụ ruo Tashish tisienụ mkpu akwa ike, unu ndị bi nʼala mmiri gbara gburugburu.
Pass ye over to Tarshish; wail, ye inhabitants of the coast.
7 Nke a ọ bụ obodo ahụ ọṅụ na-ejupụta nʼime ya oge niile? Obodo ahụ dịrịla kemgbe oge gara aga? Nke a ọ bụ ihe fọdụrụ nʼobodo ahụ ndị ya na-esi nʼime ya pụọ gaa nʼebe dị anya iwu obodo ọzọ?
Is this your joyous [city], whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her afar off to sojourn?
8 Onye zubere ihe dị otu a megide Taịa, bụ mba na-ekpube ndị ọzọ okpueze, mba nke ndị ahịa ya bụ ụmụ eze, nke ndị ọzụ ahịa ya bụ ndị a na-asọpụrụ nʼụwa?
Who hath purposed this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honorable of the earth?
9 Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile zubere ya, nʼihi iweda nʼala mpako na ịma mma ya niile, na iwetara ndị niile a na-asọpụrụ nʼụwa nlelị.
Jehovah of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.
10 Gaanụ kọọ ala ubi unu dịka ha na-eme nʼakụkụ Naịl, unu ụmụada Tashish, nʼihi na unu enwekwaghị ọnụ mmiri.
Pass through thy land as the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no restraint any more.
11 Onyenwe anyị esetipụla aka ya nʼelu osimiri mee ka alaeze ha niile maa jijiji. O nyela iwu banyere Fonisia ka e bibie ebe ya niile nke wusiri ike.
He hath stretched out his hand over the sea, he hath shaken the kingdoms: Jehovah hath given commandment concerning Canaan, to destroy the strongholds thereof.
12 Ọ sịrị, “Ị gaghị aṅụrị ọṅụ ịṅụ mmanya nʼoke oriri ọzọ, gị ada Saịdọn na-amaghị nwoke, nke a na-emegbu emegbu. “Bilie, gafee garuo Saiprọs, ọ bụladị nʼebe ahụ, ị gaghị enweta ezumike.”
And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon: arise, pass over to Kittim; even there shalt thou have no rest.
13 Lee anya nʼala ndị Kaldịa, ndị a gụpụrụla ugbu a na mmadụ! Ndị Asịrịa mere ya ka ọ bụrụ ebe obibi nye anụ ọhịa na-ebi nʼọzara. Ha wuliri ụlọ nche ha niile dị elu gburugburu tikpọọ ebe ya niile e wusiri ike, mee ha ka ha tọgbọrọ nʼefu ghọọ mkpọmkpọ ebe.
Behold, the land of the Chaldeans: this people was not; the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness; they set up their towers; they overthrew the palaces thereof; they made it a ruin.
14 Tienụ mkpu akwa, unu ụgbọ mmiri Tashish niile dị nʼoke osimiri, nʼihi na e mebiela ebe unu niile e wusiri ike.
Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for your stronghold is laid waste.
15 A gaghị echeta Taịa ọzọ, tutu iri afọ asaa agafee, nke bụ ogologo ụbọchị ndụ onye eze. Mgbe oge ahụ zuru, Taịa ga-adịkwa ka nwanyị akwụna e jiri rọọ abụ dị otu a:
And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years it shall be unto Tyre as in the song of the harlot.
16 “Welite ụbọ akwara, jegharịa nʼime obodo, gị nwanyị akwụna e chefuru echefu; kpọzie ụbọ gị nke ọma, bụọ ọtụtụ abụ, ka e si otu a mee ka ị bụrụ onye e chetara echeta.”
Take a harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.
17 E, mgbe iri afọ asaa gasịrị, Onyenwe anyị ga-eleta Taịa. Ọ ga-alaghachi nʼọrụ ya dịka nwanyị akwụna, ya na alaeze niile dị nʼihu elu ụwa niile.
And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that Jehovah will visit Tyre, and she shall return to her hire, and shall play the harlot with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.
18 Ma uru ahịa ya niile, na ego niile ọ kpatara site nʼịzụ ahịa ka ọ ga-edo nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị. Ha agaghị edokọkwa ha nʼotu ebe izo ha, kama uru ahịa ha niile ga-adịrị ndị niile na-ebi ezi ndụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ha ga-ejikwa ego ahụ zụọ ihe oriri na uwe dị mma.
And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to Jehovah: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before Jehovah, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.
