Pea naʻe kamata hū ʻa Siona ki he kolo ʻi he fononga ʻoe ʻaho ʻe taha, mo ʻene kalanga ʻo pehē, “ʻOku toe ʻae ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu, pea ʻe fakaʻauha ʻa Ninive.”
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.
Ko ia naʻe tui ai ʻae kakai ʻo Ninive ki he ʻOtua, pea fanongonongo ʻae ʻaukai, mo nau ai ʻae tauangaʻa, ʻo fai mei he kakai māʻolunga ʻo aʻu kiate ia naʻe siʻi hifo taha ʻiate kinautolu.
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.
He naʻe ʻomi hono fakahā ki he tuʻi ʻo Ninive, pea ne tuʻu hake ia mei hono nofoʻanga, ʻo ne toʻo hono kofu tōtōlofa mo ne kofuʻaki ʻe ia ʻae tauangaʻa, pea nofo ki lalo ʻi he efuefu.

Pea naʻa ne fekau ke fanongonongo mo fakahā ʻi Ninive, kuo fono ʻae tuʻi mo ʻene houʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “ʻOua naʻa kamata ha meʻa ʻe ha taha pe ʻe ha manu, ʻe he tauhi, pe ʻe ha fanga manu: ʻoua naʻa nau kai pe te nau inu ha vai
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.
Kae tuku ke kofuʻaki ʻae tauangaʻa ʻe he tangata, pea mo e manu, pea tangi fakamanavahē ki he ʻOtua: ʻio, ke tafoki taki taha kotoa pē mei hono hala kovi, pea mei he fakamālohi ʻoku ʻi honau nima.
