< Jonah 3 >

1 And the word of Jehovah came to Jonah the second time, saying,
Nangngeg ni Jonas ti sao ni Yahweh iti maikadua a gundaway, kinunana,
2 Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach to it the preaching that I bid thee.
“Agrubbuatka, mapanka idiay Nineve, ti dakkel a siudad ket iwaragawagmo sadiay ti mensahe nga imbilinko kenka.”
3 So Jonah arose, and went to Nineveh, according to the word of Jehovah. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, of three days' journey.
Nagrubbuat ngarud ni Jonas ket napan idiay Nineve kas panagtulnog iti sao ni Yahweh. Ita, ti Nineve ket nalawa unay a siudad, maysa a lugar a daliasaten iti tallo nga aldaw.
4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey. And he cried out, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.
Rinugian ni Jonas a serreken ti siudad ket kalpasan ti maysa nga aldaw a pannagnana, nagpukkaw ket kinunana, “Uppat a pulo nga aldaw manipud ita, madadaelto ti Nineve.”
5 And the people of Nineveh believed God, and they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.
Namati iti Dios dagiti tattao ti Nineve ket inwaragawagda ti panagayunar. Nagkawesda amin iti nakersang a lupot, manipud iti katatan-okan agingga iti kanunumoan kadakuada.
6 And the news reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and laid his robe from him, and covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
Nakadanon a dagus ti damag iti ari ti Nineve. Timmakder isuna iti tronona, inussobna ti pagan-anayna, nagkawes iti nakersang a lupot ket nagtugaw iti dapo.
7 And he made proclamation and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything. Let them not feed, nor drink water,
Nangiwaragawag isuna iti pakaammo a nagkuna, “Babaen iti turay ti ari ken dagiti opisialna iti Nineve, awan kadagiti tattao wenno ayup, wenno kadagiti taraken ti mangraman iti aniaman a banag ditoy Nineve. Saanyo ida a palubosan a mangan wenno uminom ti danum.
8 but let them be covered with sackcloth, both man and beast, and let them cry mightily to God. Yea, let them turn each one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in his hands.
Ngem masapul nga agabbong iti nakersang a lupot dagiti tao ken ayup ket masapul nga ipukkawda ti umawag iti Dios. Masapul a tallikudan ti tunggal maysa ti dakes a kababalinna ken ti kinaranggas dagiti imana.
9 Who knows whether God will not turn and relent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we not perish?
Siasino ti makaammo? Mabalin a maasi ti Dios ket baliwanna ti pangeddengna ket saanen nga agpungtot tapno saantayo a matay.”
10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way. And God relented of the evil which he said he would do to them, and he did not do it.
Nakita ti Dios ti inaramidda, a tinallikodanda dagiti dakes a kababalinda. Isu a binaliwan ti Dios ti pangngeddengna maipanggep iti panangdusa nga imbagana nga aramidenna kadakuada ket saannan nga inaramid daytoy.
