< Jonah 3 >
1 And the word of the Lord came to Jonas the second time, saying:
Haddana mar labaad ayaa eraygii Rabbigu u yimid Yoonis oo ku yidhi,
2 Arise, and go to Ninive the great city: and preach in it the preaching that I bid thee.
Kac, oo waxaad tagtaa magaaladaas weyn oo Nineweh, oo waxaad iyada ku wacdidaa wacdiska aan kuu sheegayo,
3 And Jonas arose, and went to Ninive, according to the word of the Lord: now Ninive was a great city of three days’ journey.
Sidaas daraaddeed Yoonis wuu kacay oo wuxuu tegey Nineweh siduu eraygii Rabbigu ku amray. Haddaba Nineweh waxay ahayd magaalo aad iyo aad u weyn, oo waxay isu jirtay intii saddex maalmood loo socdo.
4 And Jonas began to enter into the city one day’s journey: and he cried, and said: Yet forty days, and Ninive shall be destroyed.
Markaasaa Yoonis wuxuu bilaabay inuu magaaladii dhex galo in maalin socod ah, oo intuu qayliyey ayuu yidhi, Weli waxaa u hadhay afartan maalmood, dabadeedna Nineweh waa la afgembiyi doonaa.
5 And the men of Ninive believed in God: and they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth from the greatest to the least.
Markaasaa dadkii Nineweh Ilaah rumaysteen, oo waxay ku dhawaaqeen in la soomo, oo kii ugu wada weynaa ilaa kii ugu yaraa inta ka dhex leh waxay wada xidheen dhar joonyad ah.
6 And the word came to the king of Ninive; and he rose up out of his throne, and cast away his robe from him, and was clothed with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
Oo warkiina wuxuu gaadhay boqorkii Nineweh, oo isna intuu carshigiisii ka kacay ayuu dharkiisii quruxdasanaa iska bixiyey, oo wuxuu huwaday dhar joonyad ah, dambasna wuu ku fadhiistay.
7 And he caused it to be proclaimed and published in Ninive from the mouth of the king and of his princes, saying: Let neither men nor beasts, oxen nor sheep, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water.
Oo wuxuu sameeyey naado, oo Nineweh gudaheeda ayaa lagu faafiyey amarkii boqorka iyo saraakiishiisa oo leh, Dad iyo duunyo, lo' iyo ido toona, yaan midna wax dhadhamin, oo yaanay wax cunin, biyona cabbin.
8 And let men and beasts be covered with sackcloth, and cry to the Lord with all their strength, and let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the iniquity that is in their hands.
Laakiinse dad iyo duunyoba dhar joonyad ah ha la wada huwado, oo Ilaah xaggiisa aad ha loogu qayliyo; oo mid kastaaba ha ka leexdo jidkiisii xumaa iyo dulmiga gacmihiisa ku jira.
9 Who can tell if God will turn, and forgive: and will turn away from his fierce anger, and we shall not perish?
Bal yaa og in Ilaah ka noqon doono oo cadhadiisa kulul ka jeesan doono iyo in kale, si aynaan u halligmin?
10 And God saw their works, that they were turned from their evil way: and God had mercy with regard to the evil which he had said that he would do to them, and he did it not.
Oo markaasaa Ilaah wuxuu arkay shuqulkoodii iyo inay iyagu ka noqdeen jidkoodii xumaa, kolkaasaa Ilaah wuxuu ka noqday sharkii uu sheegay inuu iyaga ku samaynayo; oo taasna ma uu samayn.
