Ezekieli 27
1 Yawe alobaki na ngai:
The word of Jehovah came again to me, saying:
2 « Mwana na moto, tinda nzembo ya mawa na tina na Tiri!
Son of man, take up a lamentation over Tyre,
3 Loba na Tiri oyo ezalaka pembeni ya ebale monene, oyo esalaka mombongo elongo na bikolo nyonso, bavandi ya bisanga: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Nkolo Yawe alobi: Oh engumba Tiri, olobaka: ‘Ngai, nakoka na kitoko na ngai!’
and say to Tyre, O thou that didst dwell at the entrance of the sea, the merchant of the nations to many coasts! thus saith the Lord Jehovah: O Tyre, thou hast said, “I am perfect in beauty.”
4 Etando na yo ezali kati na bibale minene; bato oyo batongaki yo nde bakomisaki yo kitoko makasi.
Thy borders are in the midst of the seas; thy builders have perfected thy beauty.
5 Basalaki mipanzi na yo nyonso na mabaya ya sipele oyo ewutaki na Seniri; basalaki likonzi ya masuwa na yo na nzete ya sedele oyo ewutaki na Libani;
They made all thy ship-boards of cypresses of Senir; they took cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee.
6 basalaki bankayi na yo na banzete ya sheni oyo ewutaki na Bashani; basalaki bivandelo na yo, ekota pembe ya nzoko oyo ewutaki na Asiri, na mabaya ya sipele oyo ewutaki na bisanga ya Kitimi;
Of oaks of Bashan they made thine oars; thy benches they made of ivory inlaid in cedar from the coasts of the Chittaeans.
7 basalaki vwale mpe bendele na yo na elamba ya lino ya kitoko oyo ewutaki na Ejipito, mpe batongaki bililingi kati na yango; bakapo na yo ezalaki ya langi ya ble mpe ya motane, ewutaki na bisanga ya Elisha.
