1 Umthwalo weTire. Qhinqani isililo, mikhumbi yeTarshishi, ngoba ichithiwe, ukuze kungabi lendlu, ukuthi kungabi lokungena. Kuvela elizweni leKitimi kwembuliwe kubo.
KA wanana no Turo. E aoa oukou, e na moku o Taresisa, No ka mea, ua anaiia oia, aohe hale, aole wahi e komo ai; Ua haiia mai ia lakou, mai ka aina o Kitima mai.
2 Thulani, bahlali besihlenge; wena abakugcwalisileyo abathengiselani beSidoni abachapha ulwandle.
E noho malie, e ka poe noho ma kahakai; Holo ae la ka mea kalepa o Zidona, mai kela aoao ae o ke kai, a hoopiha no ia ia oe.
3 Langamanzi amakhulu, inzalo yeShihori, isivuno somfula yinzuzo yayo; njalo iyindawo yezizwe yokuthengiselana.
O ka hua o ka Nile, i ulu ma na wai nui, A me ka ai o ka muliwai, oia kona waiwai; A lilo ia i wahi kuai no na aina.
4 Woba lenhloni, Sidoni; ngoba ulwandle lukhulumile, amandla olwandle, lusithi: Kangihelelwa, kangibelethanga, kangikhulisanga amajaha, kangondlanga izintombi ezimsulwa.
E hilahila oe, e Zidona, No ka mea, ua olelo mai ko kai, o kahi paa hoi o ke kai, I mai, Aole au i kuakoko, aole au i hanau keiki, Aole au i hanai i kanaka ui, Aole hoi au i malama i na wahine puupaa.
5 Njengasembikweni ngeGibhithe bazahelelwa ngombiko weTire.
A hiki aku ka lohe i Aigupita, E nahu hookina lakou, no ka lohe ana ia Turo.
6 Chaphelani eTarshishi, qhinqani isililo, bahlali besihlenge.
E hele ae oukou i Taresisa, E aoa oukou, e ka poe noho ma kahakai.
7 Yiwo lo yini umuzi wenu ojabulayo, obudala bawo busukela ensukwini zendulo? Inyawo zawo zizawuthwalela khatshana ukuyahlala njengowezizwe.
O keia anei ko oukou wahi i hauoli ai, Ka mea i hookumuia i ka wa kahiko loa? Na kona wawae e lawe aku ia ia i kahi loihi e noho ai.
8 Ngubani oweluleke lokhu ngeTire, omethesi womqhele, obathengisi bayo bayiziphathamandla, obathengiselani bayo ngabadumileyo emhlabeni?
Owai ka mea i manao mua i keia ia Turo, I ka mea i hoalii aku ia hai? He poe alii no kona poe kalepa, A o kona poe kuai, he poe koikoi no o ka aina.
9 INkosi yamabandla ikucebisile lokhu, ukonakalisa ukuzigqaja kodumo lonke, ukwenza badeleleke bonke abadumileyo bomhlaba.
Ua manao mai o Iehova o na kaua ia mea, I hoohaumia oia i ka hanohano o na mea nani a pau, A e hoohaahaa hoi i na mea koikoi a pau o ka honua.
10 Dabula ilizwe lakho njengomfula, ndodakazi yeTarshishi; akuselamandla.
E hele oe maluna o kou aina e like me ka wai kahe, E ke kaikamahine o Taresisa, aole kaei i koe.
11 Yelulele isandla sayo phezu kolwandle, inyikinye imibuso; iNkosi ilayezile imelene leKhanani, ukuchitha inqaba zayo.
O aku no oia i kona lima maluna o ke kai, Hoonaueue no oia i na aupuni: Ua kauoha mai o Iehova no Poinike, E hooki loa aku i kona mau pakaua.
12 Yasisithi: Kawusayikuphinda ujabule, ntombi emsulwa ecindezelweyo, ndodakazi yeSidoni; eKhithimu sukuma uchaphe; lakhona kakuyikuba lokuphumula kuwe.
A ua olelo mai ia, Aole oe e hooho lanakila hou, E ka wahine puupaa i pue wale ia, ke kaikamahine a Zidona; E ku iluna, e hele i kela aoao, i Kitima; Aole nae e loaa ia oe ka maha malaila.
13 Khangela ilizwe lamaKhaladiya; lesisizwe sasingekho; amaSiriya asisekelela bona abahlala enkangala; amisa imiphotshongo yawo yokuvimbezela, abhidliza izigodlo zalo; alenza laba lunxiwa.
Aia hoi ko ka aina o Kaledea; He mea ole keia poe kanaka, A hookumu ko Asuria ia wahi no ka poe i noho ma ka waonahele; Na lakou i kukulu i kolaila mau halekiai, A hana no hoi i kolaila mau halealii; A nana i hoohiolo i na kauhale.
14 Qhinqani isililo, mikhumbi yeTarshishi, ngoba inqaba yenu ichithekile.
E aoa oukou, e na moku o Taresisa, No ka mea, ua hoohioloia kou pakaua,
15 Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku iTire ikhohlakale okweminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa, njengokwensuku zenkosi eyodwa. Ekupheleni kweminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa kuzakuba khona eTire okunjengengoma yewule.
A hiki aku i kela la, E hoopoinaia no o Turo i na makahiki he kanahiku, E like me na makahiki o ke alii hookahi: A pau na makahiki he kanahiku, Alaila, e olioli no o Turo me ka ka wahine hookamakama.
16 Thatha ichacho, ubhode umuzi, wule elikhohlakeleyo, utshaye kamnandi, uhlabele ingoma ezinengi, ukuze ukhunjulwe.
E lawe oe i ka lira, e poai i ke kulanakauhale, E ka wahine hookamakama i hoopoinaia: E hookanikani maikai, e hoonui i ka olioli, I hoomanao hou ia'i oe.
17 Kuzakuthi-ke ekupheleni kweminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa iNkosi iyihambele iTire; njalo izabuyela ekuqhatshweni kobuwule bayo; izawula layo yonke imibuso yomhlaba phezu kobuso bomhlaba.
A hiki i ka pau ana o na makahiki he kanahiku, Alaila e nana mai no o Iehova ia Turo, A e hoi hou no ia i kana hana e waiwai ai, A e moe kolohe no oia me ko na aupuni a pau o keia ao, Maluna o ka honua nei.
18 Lokuthengiselana kwayo lokuqhatshwa kwayo kuzakuba yibungcwele eNkosini; kakuyikulondolozwa kumbe kubuthelelwe, ngoba inzuzo yayo yokuthengiselana izakuba ngeyabahlala phambi kweNkosi, ukuze badle basuthe, babe lezigqoko ezinhle.
Aka, o kona waiwai loaa, a me kona uku, E laa no ia no Iehova, Aole ia e hoahuia, aole e malamaia ma kahi e; No ka mea, o kona waiwai kuai, no ka poe ia e noho ana imua o Iehova, I mea e ai ai a maona, a i mea aahu nani.
