Jonas 4
1 Men det tog Jonas såre fortrydeligt op, og han blev vred.
And it was displeasing to Jonah displeasure great and it burned to him.
2 Så bad han til HERREN og sagde: "Ak, HERRE! Var det ikke det, jeg tænkte, da jeg endnu var hjemme i mit Land? Derfor vilde jeg også før fly til Tarsis; jeg vidste jo, at du er en nådig og barmhjertig Gud, langmodig og rig på Miskundhed, og at du angrer det onde.
And he prayed to Yahweh and he said I beg you O Yahweh ¿ not [was] this word my until was I on own land my there-fore I did [the] first time to flee Tarshish towards that I knew that you [are] a God gracious and compassionate long of anger and great of covenant loyalty and [who] relents on evil.
3 Så tag nu, HERRE, mit Liv; thi jeg vil hellere dø end leve."
And therefore O Yahweh take please life my from me for [is] good death my more than life my.
4 Men HERREN sagde: "Er det med Rette; du er vred?"
And he said Yahweh ¿ rightly does it burn to you.
5 Så gik Jonas ud og slog sig ned østen for Byen; der byggede han sig en Løvhytte og satte sig i Skygge under den for at se, hvorledes det gik Byen.
And he went out Jonah from the city and he sat from east of the city and he made for himself there a shelter and he sat under it in the shade until that he will see what? will it be in the city.
6 Da bød Gud HERREN en Olieplante skyde op over Jonas og skygge over hans Hoved for at tage hans Mismod, og Jonas glædede sig højligen over den.
And he appointed Yahweh God a plant and it went up - over Jonah to be shade over head his to deliver him from distress his and he rejoiced Jonah on the plant a joy great.
7 Men ved Morgengry næste Dag bød Gud en Orm stikke Olieplanten, så den visnede;
And he appointed God a worm when came up the dawn to the next day and it attacked the plant and it withered.
8 og da Solen stod op, rejste Gud en glødende Østenstorm, og Solen stak Jonas i Hovedet, så han vansmægtede og ønskede sig Døden, idet han tænkte: "Jeg vil hellere dø end leve."
And it was - when arose the sun and he appointed God a wind an east wind hot and it struck the sun on [the] head of Jonah and he became faint and he asked life his to die and he said [is] good death my more than life my.
9 Men Gud sagde til Jonas: "Er det med Rette, du er vred for Olieplantens Skyld?" Han svarede: "Ja, med Rette er jeg så vred, at jeg kunde tage min Død derover,"
And he said God to Jonah ¿ rightly does it burn to you on the plant and he said rightly it burns to me to death.
10 Da sagde HERREN: "Du ynkes over Olieplanten, som du ingen Møje har haft med eller opelsket, som blev til på een Nat og gik ud på een Nat.
And he said Yahweh you you had compassion on the plant which not you had toiled in it and not you had made grow it that a son of a night it was and a son of a night it perished.
11 Og jeg skulde ikke ynkes over Nineve, den store Stad med mer end tolv Gange 10000 Mennesker, som ikke kan skelne højre fra venstre, og meget Kvæg."
And I not will I have compassion? on Nineveh the city great which there in it [are] many more than two [plus] ten ten thousand person[s] who not he distinguishes between right [hand] his and left his and livestock much.
