Ezekieri 27
1 Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
2 “Mwanakomana womunhu, chema pamusoro peTire.
'And thou, son of man, lift up concerning Tyre a lamentation, and thou hast said to Tyre:
3 Uti kuTire, riri pasuo rokugungwa, mushambadziri wavanhu vamarudzi ose pazviwi zvizhinji, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: “‘Unoti, iwe Tire, “Ini ndakakwana parunako.”
O dweller on the entrances of the sea, Merchant of the peoples unto many isles, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: O Tyre, thou — thou hast said: I [am] the perfection of beauty.
