Ezeekyeri 27
1 Ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
The word of the Lord came to me again, saying,
2 “Kaakano, ggwe omwana w’omuntu tandika okukungubagira Ttuulo.
And you, son of man, make a song of grief for Tyre;
3 Oyogere eri Ttuulo, ekiri awayingirirwa mu nnyanja, omusuubuzi ow’amawanga ag’oku ttale ery’ennyanja, nti bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Ggwe Ttuulo oyogera nti, “Natuukirira mu bulungi.”
And say to Tyre, O you who are seated at the doorway of the sea, trading for the peoples with the great sea-lands, these are the words of the Lord: You, O Tyre, have said, I am a ship completely beautiful.
4 Amatwale go gakoma mu nnyanja wakati, era n’abaakuzimba baakola omulimu ogw’ettendo.
Your builders have made your outlines in the heart of the seas, they have made you completely beautiful.
5 Baakola embaawo zo zonna mu miberosi gya Seniri, ne baddira emivule egy’e Lebanooni ne bakolamu omulongooti.
They have made all your boards of fir-trees from Senir: they have taken cedars from Lebanon to make the supports for your sails.
6 Ne bakola enkasi zo okuva mu myera egya Basani, n’emmanga zo, bazikola mu nzo, ez’oku bizinga ebya Kittimu, nga bazaaliiridde n’amasanga.
Of oak-trees from Bashan they have made your driving blades; they have made your floors of ivory and boxwood from the sea-lands of Kittim.
7 Ettanga lyo lyali lya linena aliko omudalizo eryava mu Misiri, era lyakozesebwanga ebendera; n’engoye zo zaali za bbululu n’ez’effulungu ezaaba ku ttale erya Erisa ekyali ku mabbali g’ennyanja.
The best linen with needlework from Egypt was your sail, stretched out to be a flag for you; blue and purple from the sea-lands of Elishah gave you shade.

Tarshish ships did business for you in your goods: and you were made full, and great was your glory in the heart of the seas.
26 Abakubi b’enkasi bakutwala awali amayengo amangi. Naye omuyaga ogw’Ebuvanjuba gulikumenyeramenyera wakati mu nnyanja.
Your boatmen have taken you into great waters: you have been broken by the east wind in the heart of the seas.
27 Obugagga bwo n’ebyamaguzi byo n’ebikozesebwa byo, n’abalunnyanja bo, n’abagoba bo, n’abasuubuzi bo n’abaserikale bo bonna na buli muntu ali ku kyombo balibbira wakati mu nnyanja ku lunaku kw’oligwiira ku kabenje.
Your wealth and your goods, the things in which you do trade, your seamen and those guiding your ships, those who make your boards watertight, and those who do business with your goods, and all your men of war who are in you, with all who have come together in you, will go down into the heart of the seas in the day of your downfall.
28 Eddoboozi ly’okukaaba kw’abalunnyanja bo, kulikankanya ebyalo ebiri ku lubalama lw’ennyanja.
At the sound of the cry of your ships' guides, the boards of the ship will be shaking.
29 Abakubi b’enkasi bonna balyabulira ebyombo byabwe; n’abagoba n’abalunnyanja bonna baliyimirira ku lubalama lw’ennyanja.
And all the boatmen, the seamen and those who are expert at guiding a ship through the sea, will come down from their ships and take their places on the land;
30 Baliyimusa amaloboozi gaabwe ne bakukaabira nnyo; era baliteeka enfuufu ku mitwe gyabwe ne beevulunga mu vvu.
And their voices will be sounding over you, and crying bitterly they will put dust on their heads, rolling themselves in the dust:
31 Balikumwera emitwe gyabwe, era Balyambala ebibukutu. Balikukaabira n’emmeeme ezennyamidde nga bakukungubaga n’emitima egijjudde ennyiike.
And they will have the hair of their heads cut off because of you, and will put haircloth on their bodies, weeping for you with bitter grief in their souls, even with bitter sorrow.
32 Balikukungubagira nga bwe bakuba ebiwoobe nga boogera nti, Ani eyali asirisibbwa nga Ttuulo eyeetooloddwa ennyanja?
And in their weeping they will make a song of grief for you, sorrowing over you and saying, Who is like Tyre, who has come to an end in the deep sea?
33 Bwe waweerezanga ebyamaguzi byo ku nnyanja, amawanga mangi gamalibwanga; era ne bakabaka b’ensi baagaggawazibwa eby’obugagga bwo ebingi n’ebyamaguzi byo.
When your goods went out over the seas, you made numbers of peoples full; the wealth of the kings of the earth was increased with your great wealth and all your goods.
34 Kaakano ennyanja ekumazeewo, mu buziba bw’amazzi; ebyamaguzi byo n’ab’omu kyombo kyo bonna babbidde naawe.
Now that you are broken by the seas in the deep waters, your goods and all your people will go down with you.
35 Abantu bonna ab’oku lubalama lw’ennyanja bafunye ensisi, era ne bakabaka baabwe bajjudde entiisa tebafaananika mu maaso olw’entiisa.
All the people of the sea-lands are overcome with wonder at you, and their kings are full of fear, their faces are troubled.
36 Abasuubuzi ab’omu mawanga bakufuuyira empa; otuuse ku nkomerero embi, so tolibeerawo nate ennaku zonna.’”
Those who do business among the peoples make sounds of surprise at you; you have become a thing of fear, you have come to an end for ever.
