Jonah 4
1 And Jonas was exceedingly troubled, and was angry:
Nguni't naghinanakit na mainam si Jonas, at siya'y nagalit.
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.
At siya'y nanalangin sa Panginoon, at nagsabi, Ako'y nakikipanayam sa iyo, Oh Panginoon, di baga ito ang aking sinabi, nang ako'y nasa aking lupain pa? Kaya't ako'y nagmadaling tumakas na patungo sa Tarsis; sapagka't talastas ko na ikaw ay Dios na mapagbiyaya, at puspos ng kahabagan, banayad sa pagkagalit, at sagana sa kagandahang-loob, at nagsisisi ka sa kasamaan.
3 And now, O Lord, I beseech thee take my life from me: for it is better for me to die than to live.
Kaya nga, Oh Panginoon, isinasamo ko sa iyo, na kitlin mo ang aking buhay; sapagka't mabuti sa akin ang mamatay kay sa mabuhay.
4 And the Lord said: Dost thou think thou hast reason to be angry?
At sinabi ng Panginoon, Mabuti baga ang iyong ginagawa na magalit?
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.
Nang magkagayo'y lumabas si Jonas sa bayan, at naupo sa dakong silanganan ng bayan, at doo'y gumawa siya ng isang balag, at naupo siya sa ilalim niyaon sa lilim, hanggang sa kaniyang makita kung ano ang mangyayari sa bayan.
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.
At naghanda ang Panginoong Dios ng isang halamang kikayon, at pinataas sa itaas ni Jonas, upang maging lilim sa kaniyang ulo, upang iligtas siya sa kaniyang masamang kalagayan. Sa gayo'y natuwang mainam si Jonas dahil sa kikayon.
7 But God prepared a worm, when the morning arose on the following day: and it struck the ivy and it withered.
Nguni't naghanda ang Dios ng isang uod nang magumaga nang kinabukasan at sinira ang halamang kikayon, na anopa't natuyo.
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.
At nangyari, nang sumikat ang araw, na naghanda ang Dios ng mainit na hanging silanganan; at sinikatan ng araw ang ulo ni Jonas, na anopa't siya'y nanglupaypay, at hiniling niya tungkol sa kaniya na siya'y mamatay, at nagsasabi, Mabuti sa akin ang mamatay kay sa mabuhay.
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.
At sinabi ng Dios kay Jonas, Mabuti baga ang ginagawa mo na magalit dahil sa kikayon? At kaniyang sinabi, Mabuti ang ginagawa ko na magalit hanggang sa kamatayan.
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.
At sinabi ng Panginoon, Ikaw ay nanghinayang sa kikayon na hindi mo pinagpagalan o pinatubo man; na sumampa sa isang gabi, at nawala sa isang gabi:
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?
At hindi baga ako manghihinayang sa Ninive, sa malaking bayang yaon, na mahigit sa isang daan at dalawang pung libong katao na hindi marunong magmunimuni ng kanilang kamay at ng kanilang kaliwang kamay; at marami ring hayop?
