1 Imburi kuri Tiro.

Nimuboroge, yemwe mwa mato y’i Tarushishi,

kuko i Tiro hatikiye,

amazu n’ivyambu vy’amato vyasanganguwe!

Bari bakiri mu gihugu ca Kupuro

maze inkuru ibasangaho.

2 Nimucereze, yemwe bantu bo mw’izinga,

hamwe namwe badandaza b’i Sidoni,

mwebwe mwari mutungishijwe n’abatwara ibintu ku kiyaga.

3 Abatwara ibintu ku mazi menshi

bakazana ingano ziva i Shiholi;

n’ivyimburwa vy’uruzi Nili,

ari vyo vyari bitungishije Tiro,

hagaca hahinduka isoko y’amahanga.

4 Maramara yewe Sidoni, hamwe nawe gihome co ku kiyaga,

kuko ikiyaga kivuze kiti:

"Sindigera ntera ibise, kandi sindigera mvyara.

Nta bahungu nonkeje, kandi nta bakobwa nareze."

5 Inkuru y’i Tiro niyashika muri Egiputa,

bazobabara cane.

6 Jabuka ikiyaga ushike i Tarushishi,

nimuboroge, yemwe bantu bo kuri iryo zinga!

7 Mbega iki ni ca gisagara canyu c’umunezero,

kimwe kimaze imyaka n’iyindi,

ibirenge vyaco vyajanye abaco kure,

bakaja gutegeka amahanga ya kure?

8 Mbega ni nde yateguye gutera Tiro,

kandi ari co gisagara cambika ingori abami,

abadandaza baho bakaba ari abaganwa,

abatunzi baho na bo bakaba ba rurangiranwa mw’isi?

9 Uhoraho Mushoboravyose ni we yabiteguye,

kugira ngo asubize hasi ubwibone bwose,

yongere acishe bugufi abanyacubahiro bo kw’isi bose.

10 Rima ku nkengera y’ikiyaga nk’uko Abanyegiputa babigira ku ruzi Nili,

yewe mukobwa w’i Tarushishi,

kuko ata vyambu bikiriho.

11 Uhoraho yaramvuriye ukuboko kwiwe ku kiyaga,

ajugumiza ubwami bwaho.

Yatanze itegeko ryerekeye Foyinike,

ko inzitiro zaho zisenyurwa.

12 Yavuze ati: "Ntukongere kunezerwa

yewe mukobwa Sidoni, kuko usanganguwe!

Mbere, naho wojabuka ikiyaga ukagera i Kupuro,

na ho nyene nta buruhukiro woharonka."

13 Tereza amaso ku gihugu c’i Babiloni,

abantu baho ntibagiharurwa nk’abariho!

Abanyashuri barahahinduye

bahahinduye igihugu c’imfyisi zo mu bugaragwa.

Bahubatse ivyo kwuririrako,

basenyagura ingoro z’abami,

igihugu bagisiga ari umusaka.

14 Nimuboroge yemwe mwa mato y’i Tarushishi,

kuko ivyambu vyanyu vyakuweho.

15 Ico gihe i Tiro hazokwibagirwa imyaka mirongo indwi, imyaka ingana n’iy’ubuzima bw’umwami. Ariko inyuma y’iyo myaka, ibizoba kuri Sidoni bizoba nk’ibiri muri iyi ndirimbo ya maraya:

16 "Akira inanga, ugendagende mu gisagara,

yewe maraya wibagiwe;

ucurarange, uririmbe indirimbo nyinshi,

kugira ngo usubire wibukwe."

17 Inyuma y’iyo myaka mirongo indwi, Uhoraho azosubira kuvyura Tiro. Ariko hazosubira ku rudandazwa rwaho rwa kera, hasambane n’ubwami bwose bwo kw’isi. 18 Ariko inyuma y’aho inyungu zaho zose zizokwegurirwa Uhoraho. Ntizizobikwa canke ngo zishirwe ukwazo, kuko zizohabwa abama imbere y’Uhoraho, kugira ngo baronke ivyo barya n’ivyo bambara.
