Ambani imwi zwikepe zwe Tashishi,
ngoti Tire ya kolomogwa,
yasiyiwa isina ng'umba kene mamilo e zwikepe.
Thawu yedzi badzizumbunuligwa kudwa
ku Khitimu.
2Nyalalani imwi bagali be tjekelo dze gungwa,
imwi baseenyi be Sidoni;
imwi makafumisiwa nge bapindi nge gungwa.
3Nge gungwa mathunde e Shiho akazha kumuli,
ne zwivuno zwe Naili.
Makabe baseenyeli be zwitjaba,
fumwa yenyu yakazhisiwa ndiko ikoku.
4Bhakhwa nge shoni iwe Sidoni ngoti gungwa gwalebeleka,
gungwa gwakasima gukati,
“Andizotongobe mu zwibhayo kene kuli kutshibama,
andizotongo lela bazhuzha kene baanadi.”
5Zibiso inowoti iswika mu Egipiti,
banowonging'wa nge buyendasi
nge zibiso ngekwe Tire.
6Tjulukilani ku Tashishi,
ambani imwi bagali be tjekelo dze gungwa!
7Apa iwoyu ndiwo nzi wenyu nkulu wakamilidzika,
Wakabepo mu mazhuba antolo,
wakabe ne makumbo akausenga ukanoti kule kene?
8Ndiani wakalongolosela kukolomodza Tire,
nzi nkulu we zwiala zwe bushe,
wakabe baseenyi bawo bali bana be bumambo,
bashabi bawo bali banolumbidziwa mu shango kene?
9Yahwe Masimbawose ndibo bakalongolosa,
kukolomodza kuzwida kwe gudzo lose,
kusalumbidza kose kulumbidziwa kwe shango.
10Zhalani shango yenyu se gwizi gwe Naili imwi bakololokadzi be Tashishi,
akutjina kutjina kuzwidziba.
11Bakatambunudzila luboko gwabo pezhugwi kwe gungwa,
bakazunguza mibuso,
Yahwe bakadusa ndayo ngekwe Kanana
kukolomodza mbako dzayo dze matizhilo.
12Ngono bakati, “Aungatjabe mu kushatha kwe kuzwikudza,
iwe mwanadi we Sidoni,
milika upindile ku Sipurasi, naikoko
autowowana kunyaluluka.”
13Bonani shango ye Bakhaladiya,
ibaba bathu bakabe basitjimwe
Asiriya yakaithama ikabe bugalo gwe phuka dze tjilambanyika,
bakabaka thungamakole dzabo,
bakakolomodza mbako dzayo dze bumambo,
bakankolomodza akabe matongo.
14Ambani imwi zwikepe zwe Tashishi,
ngoti matizhilo enyu akolomogwa.
15Ngono kowoshingikala mu zhuba ilelo kuti Tire ikanganike kwe makole ali makumi ali kutendeka,
se mazhuba e butjilo gwa mambo ng'ompela.
Shule kwe makole ali makumi ali kutendeka Tire unowonga tjimu lumbo gwe fukula gunoti,
16“Tola dende uyendayende mu nzi nkulu,
iwe fukula yakakanganika!
Umbe kunozipa, umbe njimbo njinji, kuyita kuti ukumbugwe.”
17Ku bupelo gwe makole ali makumi ali kutendeka Yahwe banowokumba Tire ngono inowobgwilila ku nshingo wayo ndizo inowofukula ne mibuso yose ye shango. 18Mbuyilo iye ne tjaalipiwa nditjo zowopiwa Yahwe, atjitowobiganyiwa kene tjikasumbikwa, koga mbuyilo iye inowoshingisiwa kuwanila ibabo banoshingila Yahwe zojiwa ne zwiambalo zwakana.
