Jonah 3
1 Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time:
I doðe rijeè Gospodnja Joni drugi put govoreæi:
2 “Get up! Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the message that I give you.”
Ustani, i idi u Nineviju grad veliki, i propovijedaj mu ono što ti ja kažem.
3 This time Jonah got up and went to Nineveh, in accordance with the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, requiring a three-day journey.
I ustav Jona otide u Nineviju po rijeèi Gospodnjoj; a Ninevija bješe grad vrlo velik, tri dana hoda.
4 On the first day of his journey, Jonah set out into the city and proclaimed, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overturned!”
I Jona poèe iæi po gradu jedan dan hoda, i propovijeda i reèe: jošte èetrdeset dana, pa æe Ninevija propasti.
5 And the Ninevites believed God. They proclaimed a fast and dressed in sackcloth, from the greatest of them to the least.
I Ninevljani povjerovaše Bogu, i oglasiše post, i obukoše se u kostrijet od najveæega do najmanjega.
6 When word reached the king of Nineveh, he got up from his throne, took off his royal robe, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
Jer kad doðe ta rijeè do cara Ninevijskoga, on usta sa svojega prijestola, i skide sa sebe svoje odijelo, i obuèe se u kostrijet i sjede u pepeo.
7 Then he issued a proclamation in Nineveh: “By the decree of the king and his nobles: Let no man or beast, herd or flock, taste anything at all. They must not eat or drink.
I proglasi se i kaza se po Nineviji po zapovijesti carevoj i knezova njegovijeh govoreæi: ljudi i stoka, goveda i ovce da ne okuse ništa, ni da pasu ni da piju vode.
8 Furthermore, let both man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and have everyone call out earnestly to God. Let each one turn from his evil ways and from the violence in his hands.
Nego i ljudi i stoka da se pokriju kostrijeæu, i da prizivaju Boga jako, i da se vrati svaki sa svoga zloga puta i od nepravde koja mu je u ruku.
9 Who knows? God may turn and relent; He may turn from His fierce anger, so that we will not perish.”
Ko zna, eda se povrati i raskaje Bog i povrati se od ljutoga gnjeva svojega, te ne izginemo.
10 When God saw their actions—that they had turned from their evil ways—He relented from the disaster He had threatened to bring upon them.
I Bog vidje djela njihova, gdje se vratiše sa zloga puta svojega; i raskaja se Bog oda zla koje reèe da im uèini, i ne uèini.
