< Jonas 4 >
1 But Jonas was very deeply grieved, and he was confounded.
Jonah el inse toasr ac kasrkusrak ke ma se inge.
2 And he prayed to the Lord, and said, O Lord, were not these my words when I was yet in my land? therefore I made haste to flee to Tharsis; because I knew that thou are merciful and compassionate, long-suffering, and abundant in kindness, and repentest of evil.
Na el pre ac fahk, “LEUM GOD, ya nga tuh tia fahk meet liki nga som liki acn sik lah pa inge ma kom ac mau oru uh? Pa pwanang nga tuh suk na ngan kaingla nu Tarshish! Nga etu lah kom sie God su yohk lungse ac pakoten la, ac kom mongfisrasr pacl nukewa, kulang pacl nukewa, ac akola pacl nukewa in ekulla nunak lom tuh kom in tia kalyei mwet uh.
3 And now, Lord God, take my life from me; for [it is] better for me to die than to live.
Ke ma inge, LEUM GOD, eisla moul luk. Nga fin misa, ac wo liki na nga in moul.”
4 And the Lord said to Jonas, Art thou very much grieved?
LEUM GOD El topuk, “Ya fal kom in kasrkusrak?”
5 And Jonas went out from the city, and sat over against the city; and he made for himself there a booth, and he sat under it, until he should perceive what would become of the city.
Jonah el illa liki siti uh ac muta layen kutulap in siti sac. El orala sie iwen aktuktuk nu sel sifacna ac muta ye lul kac, ac tupan elan liye lah mea ac sikyak nu Nineveh.
6 And the Lord God commanded a gourd, and it came up over the head of Jonas, to be a shadow over his head, to shade him from his calamities: and Jonas rejoiced with great joy for the gourd.
Na LEUM GOD El orala soko mah orak in kapak ac sunilya Jonah, ac lul kac akwoyal. Ac Jonah el arulana insewowo ke mah orak soko ah.
7 And God commanded a worm the next morning, and it smote the gourd, and it withered away.
Tusruktu toang na ke lutu tok ah, God El sap wet soko in kunausla mah orak soko ah, na mah soko ah masla.
8 And it came to pass at the rising of the sun, that God commanded a burning east wind; and the sun smote on the head of Jonas, and he fainted, and despaired of his life, and said, [It is] better for me to die than to live.
Tukun faht ah takak tari, God El supwama sie eng na fol kutulap me, ac Jonah el apkuran in mulalla ke fulen faht ah sreya fin sifal. Ouinge el kena elan misa. El fahk, “Nga fin misa, ac wo liki na nga in moul.”
9 And God said to Jonas, Art thou very much grieved for the gourd? And he said, I am very much grieved, even to death.
Tuh God El fahk nu sel, “Ya fal kom in kasrkusrak ke mah orak soko ah?” Jonah el topuk, “Aok, nuna fal ngan kasrkusrak — lupan kasrkusrak luk inge ku na ngan misa kac!”
10 And the Lord said, Thou hadst pity on the gourd, for which thou has not suffered, neither didst thou rear it; which came up before night, and perished before [another] night:
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Mah orak soko inge kapak ke fong se na, ac masla pacna ke fong se toko an. Wangin orekma lom nu kac, ac tia pac kom pa oru in kap uh, a kom asor kac!
11 and shall not I spare Nineve, the great city, in which dwell more than twelve myriads of human beings, who do not know their right hand or their left hand; and [also] much cattle?
Ac fal nu sik in arulana yohk pakomuta luk ke acn Nineveh, siti lulap sac, ke sripen oasr tulik siofok longoul tausin we wangin mwatalos, oapaya ma orakrak!”
