< Jonah 4 >
1 And Jonas was exceedingly troubled, and was angry:
Jonah teh a lungphuen, a lungkhuek teh, Oe Cathut nang koe ka kâhei. Kai teh kamamouh ram dawk ka o navah hettelah ka dei toe nahoehmaw. Hat dawk nahoehmaw nang koehoi Tarshish kho lah ka yawng vaw.
2 And he prayed to the Lord, and said: I beseech thee, O Lord, is not this what I said, when I was yet in my own country? therefore I went before to flee into Tharsis: for I know that thou art a gracious and merciful God, patient, and of much compassion, and easy to forgive evil.
Bawipa nang teh pahrennae hoi lungmakung Cathut lah na o teh, lungsawnae, moi ka pathung han na tie hai pathung laipalah ngaithoumnae lung na tawn tie heh ka panue.
3 And now, O Lord, I beseech thee take my life from me: for it is better for me to die than to live.
Hatdawkvah Cathut kahringnae na lat pouh lawih. Kai teh kahring e hlak ka due doeh ka hawihnawn telah a kâhei.
4 And the Lord said: Dost thou think thou hast reason to be angry?
Cathut ni, na lungkhuek kawi na maw telah a pacei.
5 Then Jonas went out of the city, and sat toward the east side of the city: and he made himself a booth there, and he sat under it in the shadow, till he might see what would befall the city.
Jonah ni khopui dawk bangtelah mouh ao han tie hah panue han a ngai dawkvah khopui e alawilah a tâco teh kanîtholah rim a sak teh a tâhlip dawk a tahung.
6 And the Lord God prepared an ivy, and it came up over the head of Jonas, to be a shadow over his head, and to cover him (for he was fatigued), and Jonas was exceeding glad of the ivy.
Cathut ni Jonah a lungroum nahanelah tuiumkung a ung pouh teh a lû lathueng a yam pouh. Hote akung dawkvah Jonah te a lung akuep poung.
7 But God prepared a worm, when the morning arose on the following day: and it struck the ivy and it withered.
Atangtho khodai torei teh Cathut ni a patoun e ahri ni tuiumkung thawk a kei pouh teh kawt a kamyai.
8 And when the sun was risen, the Lord commanded a hot and burning wind: and the sun beat upon the head of Jonas, and he broiled with the heat: and he desired for his soul that he might die, and said: It is better for me to die than to live.
Amom kanî a tâco torei teh, Cathut ni kâan poung e kahlî kanîtho lahoi a tho sak teh, Jonah e a lû hah a dâw pouh dawkvah, Jonah puenghoi a tawn teh due ngainae lung a tawn. Hatdawkvah, Jonah ni ka due e doeh ka hring e hlak kahawi telah a cairing.
9 And the Lord said to Jonas: Dost thou think thou hast reason to be angry, for the ivy? And he said: I am angry with reason even unto death.
Cathut ni hai nang ni tuiumkung kecu dawk na lungkhuek kawi namaw telah a pacei navah, Jonah ni ka due han totouh ka lungkhuek telah atipouh.
10 And the Lord said: Thou art grieved for the ivy, for which thou hast not laboured, nor made it to grow, which in one night came up, and in one night perished.
Cathut ni hai nang ni patang khai e nahoeh, a roung nahanelah na khetyawt e nahoeh. Rum touh dawk hoi kapâw ni teh rum touh dawk hoi tang kamyai e tuiumkung hah na pasai maw.
11 And shall not I spare Ninive, that great city, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand persons that know not how to distinguish between their right hand and their left, and many beasts?
Kai ni saringnaw ka dei hoeh, avoi arang boehai ka panuek hoeh rae tami 120,000 hlak kapap e Nineveh khopui e taminaw hah ka pasai mahoeh na maw telah atipouh.
