2 “Wena ndodana yomuntu, yenza isililiselo ngeTire,
3 uthi kulo iTire: Wena ohlala ekungeneni kolwandle, ongumthengi wabantu eziqhingini eziningi, iNkosi uJehova isho kanje, ithi:“ ‘Tire, wena ushilo ukuthi:“Ngiphelele ebuhleni.”
4 Imikhawulo yakho isenhliziyweni yolwandle;abakhi bakho baphelelisile ubuhle bakho.
5 Ngemisayipuresi* yaseSeniri benzile onke amapulangwe akho;balandile umsedari* eLebanoni ukwenza insika yakho.
6 Ngama-oki* aseBashani benzile amaphini akho;indeki* yakho bayenzile ngophondo lwendlovu,lufakelwe emthini womkhoba ovela eziqhingini zaseKitimi.
7 Ilineni elicolekileyo elifekethisiweyo elivela eGibithelalinguseyili* wakho,laze laba yibhanela* kuwe;isimbozo sakho sasiluhlaza sibubende,sivela eziqhingini zase-Elisha.
8 Abakhileyo eSidoni nase-Arvadi babe ngabagwedli bakho;izihlakaniphi zakho, Tire,zazikuwe, zazingabashayeli bakho.
