< Yehezkiel 27 >

1 Datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2 "Hai engkau anak manusia, ucapkanlah suatu ratapan mengenai Tirus,
“You, son of man, take up a lamentation over Tyre;
3 dan katakanlah kepada Tirus, yang terletak di pintu masuk lautan, dan yang berdagang dengan bangsa-bangsa di banyak daerah pesisir: Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Hai Tirus, engkau berkata: aku kapal yang maha indah.
and tell Tyre, ‘You who dwell at the entry of the sea, who are the merchant of the peoples to many islands, the Lord GOD says: “You, Tyre, have said, ‘I am perfect in beauty.’
4 Wilayahmu di tengah lautan; ahli bangunmu membuat keindahanmu sempurna.
Your borders are in the heart of the seas. Your builders have perfected your beauty.
5 Seluruh badanmu mereka buat dari kayu sanobar Senir, mereka mengambil aras Libanon membuat bagimu tiang layar.
They have made all your planks of cypress trees from Senir. They have taken a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you.
6 Pohon tarbantin dari Basan dipakai untuk dayungmu; geladakmu mereka buat dari tulang gading ditatahkan di cemara dari pantai Kitim.
They have made your oars of the oaks of Bashan. They have made your benches of ivory inlaid in cypress wood from the islands of Kittim.
7 Layarmu diperbuat dari lenan halus yang berwarna-warni dari tanah Mesir; itulah tandamu. Dan tendamu diperbuat dari kain ungu tua dan kain ungu muda dari pantai Elisa.
Your sail was of fine linen with embroidered work from Egypt, that it might be to you for a banner. Blue and purple from the islands of Elishah was your awning.
8 Orang Sidon dan Arwad menjadi pendayungmu; tukang-tukangmu, hai Tirus, berada padamu, mereka menjadi pelaut-pelautmu.
The inhabitants of Sidon and Arvad were your rowers. Your wise men, Tyre, were in you. They were your pilots.

“‘“Persia, Lud, and Put were in your army, your men of war. They hung the shield and helmet in you. They showed your beauty.

These were your traders in choice wares, in wrappings of blue and embroidered work, and in cedar chests of rich clothing bound with cords, among your merchandise.
25 Kapal-kapal Tarsis membawa barang-barang dagangan ini bagimu. Penuh dengan muatan berat engkau di tengah lautan.
“‘“The ships of Tarshish were your caravans for your merchandise. You were replenished and made very glorious in the heart of the seas.
26 Ke lautan luas pendayungmu membawa engkau. Tetapi badai timur melandamu di tengah lautan.
Your rowers have brought you into great waters. The east wind has broken you in the heart of the seas.
27 Hartamu, barangmu, daganganmu, anak kapalmu dan pelaut-pelautmu, tukang-tukangmu dan pedagang-pedagangmu dengan semua prajurit-prajuritmu yang ada padamu, ya, bersama seluruh penumpang-penumpangmu, terbenam dalam lautan pada hari tenggelammu.
Your riches, your wares, your merchandise, your mariners, your pilots, your repairers of ship seams, the dealers in your merchandise, and all your men of war who are in you, with all your company which is among you, will fall into the heart of the seas in the day of your ruin.
28 Mendengar teriakan pelautmu gemetarlah tanah daratan.
At the sound of the cry of your pilots, the pasture lands will shake.
29 Mereka turun dari kapalnya, yang mengayun dayung semua. Anak kapal, pelaut semuanya ke daratan lari mereka.
All who handle the oars, the mariners and all the pilots of the sea, will come down from their ships. They will stand on the land,
30 Ratapan kuat, teriakan pahit diperdengarkan terhadapmu; taruh abu di atas kepala, berguling-guling dalam debu.
and will cause their voice to be heard over you, and will cry bitterly. They will cast up dust on their heads. They will wallow in the ashes.
31 Mereka menggundul diri, demi engkau, dan melilitkan kain kabung; mereka menangis, jiwa merana, karena engkau; suatu ratapan yang pahit.
They will make themselves bald for you, and clothe themselves with sackcloth. They will weep for you in bitterness of soul, with bitter mourning.
32 Dalam meratap karena engkau mereka mengucapkan, menangiskan ratapan: Siapa seperti Tirus, yang sudah dimusnahkan di tengah lautan?
In their wailing they will 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 middle of the sea?’
33 Sesudah barangmu datang dari laut engkau mengenyangkan banyak bangsa-bangsa, dengan banyaknya hartamu, daganganmu engkau memperkaya raja-raja dunia.
When your wares came from the seas, you filled many peoples. You enriched the kings of the earth with the multitude of your riches and of your merchandise.
34 Sekarang engkau dirusak dan dilenyapkan dari permukaan laut dan tenggelam di dasar lautan; daganganmu dan seluruh penumpangmu tenggelam dengan engkau.
In the time that you were broken by the seas, in the depths of the waters, your merchandise and all your company fell within you.
35 Orang pesisir kaget semua melihatmu; raja-rajanya menggigil, mukanya berkerut.
All the inhabitants of the islands are astonished at you, and their kings are horribly afraid. They are troubled in their face.
36 Pedagang bangsa-bangsa bersuit-suit terhadapmu, akhir hidupmu mendahsyatkan, dan lenyap selamanya engkau."
The merchants among the peoples hiss at you. You have come to a terrible end, and you will be no more.”’”
