Ezekiel 27
1 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying:
Seyè a pale avè m', li di m' konsa:
2 And thou, son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyre,
-Nonm o! Chante pou plenn sò lavil Tir!
3 and say unto Tyre: O thou that art situate at the entries of the sea, and traffickest with the peoples in many isles, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Thou, Tyre, hast said, I am perfect in beauty.
W'a pale ak moun lavil Tir yo, lavil ki kanpe bò lanmè a, lavil k'ap fè kòmès ak dènye moun ki rete bò lanmè, w'a di yo men mesaj Seyè sèl Mèt la voye ba yo: -Nou menm, moun lavil Tir, k'ap mache di: Pa gen pi bèl peyi pase peyi nou an!
4 Thy borders are in the heart of the seas, thy builders have perfected thy beauty.
Fwontyè nou rive jouk nan mitan lanmè. Moun ki bati lavil la te bati l' tankou yon bèl batiman.
5 They made all thy double boards of cypress-trees of Senir; they took cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee.
Yo te pran bwapen sou mòn Seni fè planch pou sèvi bòday nou yo. Yo pran yon bwa sèd peyi Liban pou fè ma pou nou.
6 Of the oaks of Bashan did they make thine oars; they made thy benches of ivory, inlaid in box-wood, out of the isles of Chittim.
Yo pran bwadchenn peyi Bazan pou fè zaviwon. Yo voye chache bwa sèd nan lil Chip pou fè pon an. Lèfini, yo plake moso ivwa sou tout pon an.
7 Byssus with broidered work from Egypt was thy sail, to serve thee for a banner; blue and purple from the isles of Elishah was thine awning.
Vwal batiman an te fèt ak bèl twal fin blan bwode ki soti peyi Lejip. Se te drapo pa nou sa! Kabin sou pon an te kouvri ak bèl twal violèt, bèl twal wouj ki soti nan lil Elicha.
8 The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy rowers; thy wise men, O Tyre, who were in thee, were thy pilots.
Se gason ki soti lavil Sidon ak lavil Avad k'ap naje zaviwon pou ou. Men, se moun lavil la menm ki te fò anpil nan lamarin ki te maren sou batiman an.
9 The elders of Gebal and the wise men thereof were in thee repairing thy leaks; all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in thee, to barter with thee.
Se ansyen gwo bòs chapant lavil Gebal ak bon ouvriye yo ki te abò batiman an pou fè reparasyon. Maren tout batiman ki sou lanmè a vin fè trafik lakay ou.
10 Persia and Lud and Phut were in thine army, thy men of war: they hanged shield and helmet in thee; they gave splendour to thee.
Nan lame ou la se renk moun peyi Pès, moun peyi Loud ak moun peyi Pout ki t'ap sèvi. Yo konn fè lagè. Se nan kazèn ou yo yo te konn mete gwo plak fè pwotèj yo ak kas an fè yo. Se moun sa yo ki te fè ou rive nan tout bèl pozisyon sa a.
11 The children of Arvad with thine army were upon thy walls round about, and the Gammadim were on thy towers: they hanged their shields upon thy walls round about; they made thy beauty perfect.
Sòlda ki soti lavil Avad ap veye sou tout miray ranpa ou yo. Sòlda ki soti lavil Gamad t'ap fè faksyonnè sou tout gwo fò won ou yo. Yo pandye plak fè pwotèj yo sou tout miray yo. Se moun sa yo ki te fè ou bèl kont bèl ou.

15 The children of Dedan were thy traffickers; many isles were the mart of thy hand: they rendered in payment horns of ivory, and ebony.

26 Thy rowers have brought thee into great waters; the east wind hath broken thee in the heart of the seas.
Moun ki t'ap naje zaviwon yo te mennen ou byen lwen nan fon lanmè. Yon sèl van lès te fè ou koule byen lwen nan mitan lanmè.
27 Thy substance, and thy markets, thy merchandise, thy mariners, and thy pilots, they that repair thy leaks, and they that barter with thee, and all thy men of war that are in thee, along with all thine assemblage which is in the midst of thee, shall fall into the heart of the seas in the day of thy fall.
Tout richès ou yo, tout machandiz ou yo, ak tout pwovizyon ou yo ansanm ak tout maren ak tout moun k'ap travay pou ou yo, bòs chapant ki pou fè reparasyon pou ou yo, machann ou yo, tout sòlda ki te abò ou yo ansanm ak tout foul moun ki te nan batiman an, yo tout, wi, yo tout pèdi nan lanmè lè batiman ou lan koule.
28 The open places shall shake at the sound of the cry of thy pilots.
Rèl maren k'ap neye yo fè moun ki rete sou rivaj yo pran tranble.
29 And all that handle the oar, the mariners, all the pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships; they shall stand upon the land,
Tout moun ki t'ap naje zaviwon yo desann atè, yo kite batiman yo. Tout maren yo rete atè.
30 and shall cause their voice to be heard over thee, and shall cry bitterly; and they shall cast up dust upon their heads; they shall wallow themselves in ashes.
Y'ap kriye pou ou, y'ap plenn sò ou. Y'ap voye pousyè tè sou tèt yo, y'ap woule kò yo nan sann dife, tèlman y'ap nan lapenn.
31 And they shall make themselves utterly bald for thee, and gird themselves with sackcloth; and they shall weep for thee in bitterness of soul with bitter mourning.
Yo koupe tout cheve nan tèt yo. Yo mete rad sak sou yo. Sa fè yo mal anpil pou ou. Yo dekouraje, y'ap plenn sò ou.
32 And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and lament over thee, [saying, ] Who is like Tyre, like her that is destroyed in the midst of the sea?
Nan lapenn yo y'ap chante sou ou. Yo pral plenn sò ou ak dlo nan je. Y'ap di: Pa te gen tankou lavil Tir ki koulye a koule nan fon lanmè!
33 When thy wares went forth over the seas, thou filledst many peoples; thou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the abundance of thy substance and of thy merchandise.
Lè ou voye machandiz ou yo vann lòt bò dlo, tout nasyon yo jwenn sa yo bezwen. Avèk kantite machandiz ak danre ou yo, ou te fè anpil wa vin rich.
34 In the time [when] thou art broken by the seas, in the depths of the waters, thy merchandise and all thine assemblage in the midst of thee have fallen.
Koulye a, ou koule nan fon lanmè. Tout machandiz ou yo, tout moun ki t'ap travay pou ou yo disparèt ansanm avè ou nan lanmè.
35 All the inhabitants of the isles are amazed at thee, and their kings are horribly afraid, [their] countenance is troubled.
Tout moun ki rete nan peyi bò gwo lanmè a sezi tande sa ki rive ou. Ata wa yo gen kè sote. Yo kagou sitèlman yo pè.
36 The merchants among the peoples hiss at thee; thou art become a terror, and thou shalt never be any more.
Moun k'ap fè kòmès nan lòt peyi yo sezi, yo pè pou sa ki rive ou la pa rive yo tou. Wi, ou fini, ou fini nèt.
