3 And thou shalt say unto Tyre, O thou that dwellest by the entrances of the sea, Thou merchant of the peoples unto many shores, — Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, O Tyre, Thou saidst, I, am the perfection of beauty!
Pea ke pehē ki Taia, ʻa koe ʻoku tuʻu taupotu ki tahi, ko e fai fakatau ki he kakai mei he ngaahi motu lahi, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua; “ʻE Taia, ʻa koe kuo ke pehē ʻe koe, Ko au ʻoku ou toulekeleka haohaoa.

28 At the sound of the outcry of thy pilots, the coasts shall quake:
ʻE ngalulu ʻae ngaahi peau ʻi he pā mai ʻae tangi ʻa hoʻo kau fakahao vaka.
29 Then shall come down from their ships all that handle the oar, mariners, all the sailors of the sea— Upon the land, shall they take up their station;
Pea ʻe hifo mei honau vaka ʻakinautolu ʻoku tauʻaʻalo, mo e kau toutai, mo e kau fakahao vaka kotoa pē ʻi he tahi, pea te nau tutuʻu ai;
30 And make loud [lament] over thee, with their voice, And make biter outcry, - And shall lift up dust on their heads, In ashes, shall roll themselves;

32 And shall take up for thee in their Wailing: a dirge, And shall chant over thee, - Who is like Tyre? Like the Sent One in the midst of the sea?
Pea ʻi heʻenau mamahi, te nau fai ʻae tangilāulau koeʻuhi ko koe, ʻonau tangi mamahi koeʻuhi ko koe ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e kolo fē ʻoku hangē ko Taia, kuo maumauʻi ʻi he loto tahi?
33 By the going forth of thy commodities out of the seas, Thou didst satisfy many peoples, By the multitude of thy wares and of thy merchandise, Thou didst enrich the kings of the earth.
Naʻa ke fakamahu ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻi he ngaahi meʻa naʻe fetuku meiate koe ki he ngaahi potu tahi; naʻa ke fakakoloa ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, ʻi he lahi ʻo hoʻo koloa mo hoʻo meʻa fakatau.
34 Now, thou art wrecked out of the seas In the depths of waters, — Thy merchandise and all thy gathered host In thy midst, have fallen.
ʻI he ʻaho ko ia ʻe maumauʻi koe ʻe he ngaahi peau ʻi he loloto ʻoe ngaahi vai, ʻe hinga ai mo koe ʻa hoʻo koloa mo hoʻo kakai kotoa pē.’
35 All the dwellers in the coastlands, Are astounded over thee, - And their kings have been made to shudder a shuddering, To be troubled in countenance.
“ʻE ofo ʻiate koe ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi ʻotu motu, pea ʻe manavahē lahi honau kau pule, te nau mata kehe ʻi heʻenau puputuʻu.
36 The traders among the peoples, have hissed over thee: A terror, hast thou become, And, art not, Unto times age-abiding.
ʻE fakaʻiseʻisa ʻae kau fakatau koloaʻia ʻi he kakai kiate koe: te ke hoko koe ko e meʻa fakaʻulia; pea ʻe ʻikai te ke toe ʻi ai ʻo taʻengata.”
