1 Ndeva ilizwi *likaNdikhoyo lisithi:
2 “Mntundini, yitsho isililo ngenxa yeTire.
3 Xelela iTire elisango laselwandle, yona erhweba neentlanga eziselunxwemeni, uthi: Itsho iNkosi uNdikhoyo ukuthi:“Wena Tire, uthi:‘Andimhle, ndincamisile!’
4 Imida yakho ibiselwandle;ubuhle bakho obuyimbalasane benziwe ngabakwakhileyo.
5 Baxoze imipayini yaseSenire,bakha wena ngayo;bagawule imisedare yaseLebhanon,baxhoma amalaphu enqanawe kuyo.
6 Baxoze imioki yaseBhashan,benza ngayo amaphini okugwexa;imisipresi yonxweme lwaseKitiluphahla lwakho lwenqanawe,oluhonjiswe ngomxhaka weendlovu.
7 Intshinga eluphawu owaziwa ngaloyilinen ecikizekileyo yaseJiputa ekuphehlayo;amaphempe akho azubangawelaphu lonxweme lwase-Elisha.
8 Abagwexi-nqanawe zizigantsontso zaseSidon naseArvadi;iincutshe zoomatiloshe baselwandle ziphuma kuwe, Tire.
9 Amachule aseGebhali ahlala ekho kuwe,elindele ukutywina iindawo ezivuzayo.Zonke iinqanawe noomatiloshe zingqonga wena, ziko lorhwebo.
10 “Umkhosi wakho unezixhipholo zamadoda,nditsho awasePeshiya, eLidiya, nasePuti.Axhome amakhaka neminqwazi ekhuselayo ezindongeni zakho,aphuhlisa ubuqaqawuli bakho.
11 Macala onke eendonga zokhuselokumi amadoda aseArvadi naseHeleki;kwimibhontshontsho yookhala ngamadoda aseGamade.Amakhaka awo axhonywe ezindongeni zakho,batsho bayimbalasane ubuhle bakho.
12 “AbaseTashishe barhweba nawe ngenxa yentaphane yempahla, bakuphathele isiliva, isinyithi, itini, nelothe, ukuze bazuze impahla orhweba ngayo.
13 “Barhwebile nawe abelamaGrike, abaseTubhali nabaseMesheki; bakuphathele amakhoboka nempahla yesinyithi ukuze bafumane into orhweba ngayo.
14 “Amadoda aseBhete-togarma azise amahashe okusebenza nawemfazwe, neemeyile, ukuze azuze impahla yakho yorhwebo.
15 “Amadoda aseDedan arhwebile nawe, waza wathengisela namazwe amaninzi aselunxwemeni; akuhlawule ngeempondo zeendlovu nangomthi omnyama oxatyisiweyo.
16 “Uthengiselene neAram ngenxa yenkitha yemveliso yakho. Yona ikunike itekoyisi, ilaphu elimsobo, imbroda, ilinen ecikiziweyo, ikhorali, neerubhi, ukuze izuze impahla orhweba ngayo.
17 “Barhwebile nawe abakwaJuda nabakwaSirayeli; bakuphathele ingqolowa yaseMiniti nezimuncu-muncu, ubusi, amafutha, namachiza, bazuza izinto orhweba ngazo.
18 “Ngenxa yentaphane yemveliso yakho nobutyebi bakho abaseDamasko bathengise ngewayini yaseHelbon noboya baseZaware.
19 “Ayithengile impahla yakho amaDan namaGrike aseUzali. Akuphathele intsimbi, ikasiya, nekalamo.
20 “IDedan irhwebe ngezingqwashu.
21 “Babengabathengi bempahla yakho abelama-Arabhu nazo zonke iinkosi zaseKedare. Bakuzisele amatakane eegusha, neenkunzi zeegusha nezeebhokhwe.
22 “Uthengiselene nabarhwebi baseShebha nabaseRama. Ukuze bafumane impahla yakho bathengise ngezona-zona zinongo, nawona-wona matye anqabileyo, nangegolide.
23 “Uthengiselene nabarhwebi baseHaran, Kane, Eden, Sheba, Ashure, nabaseKilmadi.
24 Phaya emarikeni nirhwebe ngezambatho ezihle, ilaphu elizuba, imbroda, izicangca ezimabala-bala ezimitya iphothiweyo yanamanquma.
25 “Izithuthi zempahla yakho yorhwebo ziinqanawe zaseTashishe.Uyasindeka ngumthwalo enzonzobileni yolwandle.
26 Abagwexi-nqanawe bakho bacanda iilwandle ngawe.Kambe umoya wasempumalanga wokuqhekeza phakathi elwandle.
27 Ubutyebi bakho,impahla orhweba ngayo,oomatiloshe neencutshe zolwandle,namagcisa okuvala iintanda,abarhwebi namajoni akho,nabo bonke abangaphakathi,baya kuzika enzonzobileni yolwandle mhla waqhekeka.
28 Ziya kunxunguphala izizwe ezima ngaselunxwemeni,zisothuswa sisijwili soomatiloshe bakho.
29 Bonke abagwexi baya kusaba enqanaweni;oomatiloshe namachule eenqanawe baya kuma bhuxe elunxwemeni.
30 Baya kukhala ngezwi elikhulu,besenza isijwili esikrakra ngenxa yakho.Intloko yabo baya kuyigalela uthuli,baziqika-qike eluthuthwini.
31 Ngenxa yakho baya kucheba iinwele zabo,banxibe irhonya.Baya kukulilela ngomoya owonakeleyo,bazile bekrakra.
32 Baya kwenza isijwili,bazile ngenxa yakho.Baya kwenza isililo ngawe, bathi:‘Ngubani na owakhe wathuliswa njengeTire emi elwandle?’
33 Wawuzanelisa izizwe ezininzi ngexesha owawurhweba phesheya kolwandle;ubutyebi bakho, nempahla yakho yatsho zatyeba iikumkani zehlabathi.
34 Ngokunje lukuqhekezile ulwandle, usenzonzobileni yamanzi;impahla yakho namahlakani akho bazike kunye nawe.
35 Bonke abemi bonxweme ubothusile;iikumkani ziyathuthumela, zitsho zaxweba kukoyika.
36 Abarhwebi bezizwe bayakunyevulela;usuke waba sisoyikiso, watsho ngesiphelo esibi.”
