< Jonah 1 >

1 Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai, saying,
Eso afaega, Hina Bagade Gode da Youna, (Amidai ea mano) ema sia: i.
2 “Get up! Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before Me.”
E amane adoi, “Di Ninefe moilai bai bagade fi amoga asili, gasa gala ilima amane sisia: ma, ‘Na ba: loba da dili wadela: i hou bagohame hamosa’ ia adoma.”
3 Jonah, however, got up to flee to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa and found a ship bound for Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went aboard to sail for Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.
Be Youna da Hina Gode yolesili, Dasase moilai bai bagade fi amoga hobeale masunusa: dawa: i. Be amomane E da Yoba moilai amoga asi, amola E asili ba: loba, dusagai bagade amo da Dasase moilai bai bagade (Siba: ini soge ganodini) amoga ahoanebe ba: i. Amanoba, e da ea masunu muni ianu, dusagai hawa: hamosu dunu gilisili amoga fila heda: i. E da Gode yolesili hobeale masunusa: dawa: i
4 Then the LORD hurled a great wind upon the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship was in danger of breaking apart.
Be Youna amola dunu oda ilia gilisili fila heda: le ahoanoba, Hina Gode Hi da isu amola fo amola gibu amo i, amola hano da bagade gafululi amola da dusagai amo gadenene agoane, gela sa: imu agoai ba: i.
5 The sailors were afraid, and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the ship’s cargo into the sea to lighten the load. But Jonah had gone down to the lowest part of the vessel, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep.
Amabeba: le, dusagaiga hawa: hamosu dunu ilia bagadewane beda: ne, ilia ‘gode’ liligi ilima fidima: ne sia: ne gadoi. Amola ilia liligi dusagai ganodini dialu amo huluane ladili hanoa ga galagai. Be ili amo hawa: hamonanoba da Youna e dusagai amo ganodini, sesei amo ganodini sima dialu.
6 The captain approached him and said, “How can you sleep? Get up and call upon your God. Perhaps this God will consider us, so that we may not perish.”
Be dusagai ouligisu dunu ea da Youna ba: le amane sia: i, “Abuliba: le di sima dianabela: ? Di waha wa: legadole di fidima: ne dia Godema sia: ne gadoma, amola da nini huluane hanoga gela sa: imu galebe. Na dawa: loba da dia Godema sia: ne gadosea, amola Ea ninima asigili fidima: bela: amola ninia da hame bogoma: bela: ?”
7 “Come!” said the sailors to one another. “Let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity that is upon us.” So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.
Amalu dusagaiga hawa: hamosu dunu ilia gilisili sia: sa: i amola bai hogoi, “Nowa da bai mubala: le amola goe hou doaga: ma: ne amola ninia gadenenewane se nabimu galebe. Ninia amo hou dawa: ma: ne ganisano sagamu.” Hogole ba: loba Youna e da afuda: i ba: i, amola ea dio dialebe ba: i.
8 “Tell us now,” they demanded, “who is to blame for this calamity that is upon us? What is your occupation, and where have you come from? What is your country, and who are your people?”
Amabeba: le, ilia ema amane sia: i, “Dia amola ninima goe hou hamoi amo se nabasu bai amo ninima adole ima. Dia da goe guda: adi hamobela: ? Amola di da habidili fi dunula: ? Dia da habidili fi dunu amola dia sosogo fi da habigala?”
9 “I am a Hebrew,” replied Jonah. “I worship the LORD, the God of the heavens, who made the sea and the dry land.”
Amola Youna amane adole i, “Na da Hibulu sosogo fi amoga, amola na da Hina Gode Bagade Hebene ganodini esalebe, amoma fa: no bobogesa amola Ema sia: ne gadosa. E da osobo bagade amola hano huluane hamoi.”
10 Then the men were even more afraid and said to him, “What have you done?” The men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.
Amola Youna e da dusagaiga hawa: hamosu ilima amane adole i, “Na da Hina Bagade Ema hobeale ahoa.” Be amo sia: nababeba: le, dusagaiga hawa: hamosu ilia bagadewane fofogadigili amola bagade beda: gia: i, amola ilia da ema amane sia: i, “Amo hou dia da abuliba: le hamobela: ? (E da Godema hobeale asi ilima adoiba: le, ilia da amo hou dawa: i dagoi).
11 Now the sea was growing worse and worse, so they said to Jonah, “What must we do to you to calm this sea for us?”
Be fo amola isu da mae yolelewane, bagade manu, amabeba: le ilia ema adole ba: i. “Adi hamonanea da fo amola isu amola yolema: bela: ?”
12 “Pick me up,” he answered, “and cast me into the sea, so it may quiet down for you. For I know that I am to blame for this violent storm that has come upon you.”
Youna da amane sia: i, “Dilia da na hanoga ha: digisia, da fo amola isu amola da yolemu. Na dawa: , amo da na baiga agoane hamosa.”
13 Nevertheless, the men rowed hard to get back to dry land, but they could not, for the sea was raging against them more and more.
Be amomane dusagaiga hawa: hamosu dunu ilia da gasa fili, hano bega: ganodini doaga: musa: ha: giwane sua: lala asi, be amomane ahoa ba: loba hamedeidafa ba: i. Be fo amola isu da bu bagade misi.
14 So they cried out to the LORD: “Please, O LORD, do not let us perish on account of this man’s life! Do not charge us with innocent blood! For You, O LORD, have done as You pleased.”
Amabeba: le, ili da Godema gasa gala bagadewane sia: ne gadoi, ili fidima: ne, amola ilia amane sia: i, “Hina Gode! Nini bagade beda: i galebe. Be ninia goe dunu ha: digisia, Dia nini mae se nabasima amola mae medole legema. Hina Gode! Di fawane da Dia hanaiga hamoi.
15 At this, they picked up Jonah and cast him into the sea, and the raging sea grew calm.
Amanoba, ilia Youna ouga: ne hanoa galagai, be amane hamobeba: le, fo amola isu amola hano gafului huluane fisi dagoi.
16 Then the men feared the LORD greatly, and they offered a sacrifice to the LORD and made vows to Him.
Amo hou ba: beba: le, ilia amola da Hina Godema beda: ne amola nodone gobele salasu hou amola, Ema dafawane fa: no bobogemu sia: i.
17 Now the LORD had appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah spent three days and three nights in the belly of the fish.
Be Hina Gode da hamoma: ne sia: beba: le, menabo bagade afae amo da Youna e da: gi, amola Youna da menabo ea hagomo ganodini esaloba, eso udiana amola gasi udiana amola ha: digi.
