< Jonah 1 >

1 Now the word of the Lord came to Jonas the son of Amathi, saying:
Ita, ti sao ni Yahweh ket immay kenni Jonas nga anak a lalaki ni Amittai, kinunana,
2 Arise, and go to Ninive the great city, and preach in it: for the wickedness thereof is come up before me.
“Agrubbuatka ket mapanka idiay Nineve, ti dakkel a siudad ket agsaoka ti maibusor iti daytoy, gapu ta dimmanon kaniak ti kinadakesda.”
3 And Jonas rose up to flee into Tharsis from the face of the Lord, and he went down to Joppe, and found a ship going to Tharsis: and he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them to Tharsis from the face of the Lord.
Ngem nagrubbuat ni Jonas a mapan idiay Tarsis tapno itarayanna ti imatang ni Yahweh. Simmalog isuna idiay Joppe ket nakasarak iti barko nga agturong idiay Tarsis. Binayadanna ngarud ti pletena ket naglugan iti barko tapno kumuyog kadakuada nga agturong idiay Tarsis, adayo iti imatang ni Yahweh.
4 But the Lord sent a great wind into the sea: and a great tempest was raised in the sea, and the ship was in danger to be broken.
Ngem imbulos ni Yahweh ti napigsa nga angin iti taaw ket nagbalin daytoy a napigsa a bagyo. Nganngani marba ti barko.
5 And the mariners were afraid, and the men cried to their god: and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship, into the sea, to lighten it of them: and Jonas went down into the inner part of the ship, and fell into a deep sleep.
Nagbuteng unay dagiti tripulante ket immawag ti tunggal lalaki iti bukodna a dios. Impurruakda dagiti karga ti barko iti taaw tapno lumag-an daytoy. Ngem adda ni Jonas iti kaunegan a kadsaaran ti barko ken agid-idda sadiay a narnekan ti turogna.
6 And the shipmaster came to him, and said to him: Why art thou fast asleep? rise up, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think of us, that we may not perish.
Isu nga immay ti kapitan kenkuana ket kinunana, Ania ti ar-aramidem, matmaturog? Bumangonka! Awagam ti diosmo! Bareng no makitanatayo ti diosmo ket saantayo a matay.”
7 And they said every one to his fellow: Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know why this evil is upon us. And they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonas.
Kinunada iti tunggal maysa, “Umaykayo, agbibinnunottayo, tapno maammoantayo no siasino ti nakaigapuan daytoy dakes a mapaspasamak kadatayo.” Isu a nagbibinnunotda ket nabunot ti nagan ni Jonas.
8 And they said to him: Tell us for what cause this evil is upon us, what is thy business? of what country art thou? and whither goest thou? or of what people art thou?
Ket kinunada kenni Jonas, “Pangaasim ta ibagam kadakami no siasino ti nakaigapuan daytoy dakes a mapaspasamak kadatayo. Ania ti trabahom ken sadino ti naggapuam? Ania ti pagiliam ken ania a puli ti nagtaudam?”
9 And he said to them: I am a Hebrew, and I fear the Lord the God of heaven, who made both the sea and the dry land.
Kinuna ni Jonas kadakuada, “Maysaak a Hebreo; ket agbutengak kenni Yahweh, ti Dios ti langit, a nangaramid iti taaw ken ti daga.”
10 And the men were greatly afraid, and they said to him: Why hast thou done this? (for the men knew that he fled from the face of the Lord: because he had told them.)
Ad-adda ngarud a nagbuteng dagiti lallaki ket kinunada kenni Jonas, “Ania daytoy nga inaramidmo?” Ta ammo dagiti lallaki nga itartarayanna ti imatang ni Yahweh, gapu ta imbagana kadakuada.
11 And they said to him: What shall we do to thee, that the sea may be calm to us? for the sea flowed and swelled.
Ket kinunada kenni Jonas, “Ania ti rumbeng nga aramidenmi kenka tapno agtalna ti taaw kadatayo?” Ta ad-adda a dimmawel ti taaw.
12 And he said to them: Take me up, and cast me into the sea, and the sea shall be calm to you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is upon you.
Kinuna ni Jonas kadakuada, “Bagkatendak ket ipurruakdak iti taaw. Ket agkalmanto ti taaw kadakayo, ta ammok a gapu kaniak a mapaspasamak daytoy napigsa a bagyo.”
13 And the men rowed hard to return to land, but they were not able: because the sea tossed and swelled upon them.
Nupay kasta, naggaud ti kasta unay dagiti lallaki tapno makasublida iti daga, ngem saanda a maaramid daytoy gapu ta ad-adda a dumawdawel ti taaw a maibusor kadakuada.
14 And they cried to the Lord, and said: We beseech thee, O Lord, let us not perish for this man’s life, and lay not upon us innocent blood: for thou, O Lord, hast done as it pleased thee.
Ngarud, immawagda kenni Yahweh ket kinunada, “Agpakpakaasikami kenka Yahweh, agpakpakaasikami kenka, saanmo nga ipalubos a mataykami maigapu iti biag daytoy a lalaki, ken saanmo nga ipabasol kadakami ti ipapatayna, gapu ta sika, Yahweh, inaramidmo laeng ti makaay-ayo kenka.”
15 And they took Jonas, and cast him into the sea, and the sea ceased from raging.
Binagkatda ngarud ni Jonas ket impuruakda iti taaw, ket nagsardeng ti kinadawel ti taaw. Ket kasta unay ti buteng dagiti lallaki kenni Yahweh.
16 And the men feared the Lord exceedingly, and sacrificed victims to the Lord, and made vows.
Nangidatagda iti daton kenni Yahweh ken nagsapatada.
17 Now the Lord prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonas: and Jonas was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
Ita, nangisagana ni Yahweh iti dakkel nga ikan a mangalun-on kenni Jonas ket adda ni Jonas iti tian ti ikan iti tallo nga aldaw ken tallo a rabii.
