Ndipo Yehova anayankhula ndi Yona kachiwiri kuti,
2 “Thoo, Nineveh khopuei len la cet lamtah nang taengah olthang ka thui te a taengah hoe pah,” a ti nah.

3 Te dongah Jonah te thoo tih BOEIPA ol bangla Nineveh la cet. Te vaengah Nineveh tah Pathen taengah khopuei koek la om tih hnin thum caeh lo.

4 Jonah te hlah tih khopuei khuiah hnin at caeh a pha neh a hoe coeng. Te vaengah, “Hnin sawmli om pueng dae Nineveh a palet coeng,” a ti.

5 Te vaengah Nineveh hlang rhoek loh Pathen te a tangnah uh. Te dongah yaehnah te a hoe uh tih a len lamloh a yit duela tlamhni a bai uh.
Anthu a ku Ninive anakhulupirira Mulungu. Analengeza kuti aliyense, wamkulu ndi wamngʼono yemwe asale zakudya ndipo avale chiguduli.
6 Ol loh Nineveh manghai taengla a pha. Te dongah a ngolkhoel lamloh thoo tih a pum dongkah a himbai te a pit. Te phoeiah tlamhni a bai tih hmaiphu lakli ah ngol.
Mfumu ya ku Ninive itamva nkhaniyi, inatsika pa mpando wake waufumu, nivula mkanjo wake waufumu ndipo inavala chiguduli ndi kukhala pansi pa fumbi.
7 Te phoeiah pang tih manghai kah omih neh Nineveh ah a thui. A len rhoek taengah, “Hlang neh rhamsa khaw, saelhung neh boiva loh, caak pakhat khaw ten boel saeh lamtah bul boel saeh, tui khaw o boel saeh.
Tsono mfumuyo inalengeza mu Ninive kuti, “Mwa lamulo lochokera kwa mfumu ndi akalonga ake: “Munthu aliyense kapenanso nyama, ngʼombe kapena nkhosa, zisadye kanthu kalikonse; musazilole kuti zidye kapena kumwa.
8 Hlang neh rhamsa loh tlamhni bai uh saeh lamtah Pathen te thama la khue uh saeh. Hlang he amah kah boethae longpuei lamloh, a kut dongkah kuthlahnah lamloh mael saeh.
Koma anthu avale ziguduli, ndipo nyamanso aziveke ziguduli. Munthu aliyense azifuwula kwa Mulungu ndi mphamvu zake zonse. Anthuwo asiye makhalidwe awo oyipa ndi machitidwe achiwawa.
9 Ulong a ming huek? Pathen he mael tih ko a hlawt khaming. A thintoek thinsa lamloh a mael daengah ni m'milh uh pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
Angadziwe ndani? Mwina Mulungu nʼkutikhululukira ndipo mwa chifundo chake nʼkuleka kutikwiyira, ifeyo osawonongedwa.”
10 Amih kah boethae longpuei lamloh a mael uh dongah amih khoboe te Pathen loh a hmuh. Te dongah Pathen loh ko a hlawt tih amih soah boethae saii hamla a thui dae saii pawh.
Mulungu ataona zimene anthuwo anachita, ndi mmene anasiyira makhalidwe awo oyipa, anawachitira chifundo ndipo sanabweretse chiwonongeko chimene anawaopseza nacho.
