Jonah 4
1 Therefore it displeased Ionah exceedingly, and he was angry.
Tedae thaehuet he Jonah taengah muep a thae pah tih amah khaw sai.
2 And he prayed vnto the Lord, and saide, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my countrey? therefore I preuented it to flee vnto Tarshish: for I knewe that thou art a gratious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindnes, and repentest thee of the euill.
Te dongah BOEIPA taengla thangthui tih, “Aw BOEIPA, ka hmuenlung ah ka om vaengah he he ka ol moenih a? Te dongah ni Tarshish la yong ham ka mah. Namah he lungvatnah neh thinphoei Pathen la kan ming ta. Thintoek na ueh tih sitlohnah loh a puh dongah boethae khui lamloh ko na hlawt.
3 Therefore nowe O Lord, take, I beseech thee, my life from me: for it is better for me to die then to liue.
BOEIPA aw, kai lamkah ka hinglu te lo mai laeh. Ka dueknah he ka hingnah lakah then,” a ti.
4 Then saide the Lord, Doest thou well to be angry?
Tedae BOEIPA loh, “Nang taengah a sai te thuem a?” a ti nah.
5 So Ionah went out of the citie and sate on the East side of the citie, and there made him a boothe, and sate vnder it in the shadowe till he might see what should be done in the citie.
Te phoeiah Jonah te khopuei lamloh cet tih khopuei kah khothoeng ah kho a sak. Te vaengah amah hamla poca pahoi a sak tih khopuei ah metla a om khaw hmuh hamla hlipkhup kah a hmui ah ngol.
6 And the Lord God prepared a gourde, and made it to come vp ouer Ionah, that it might be a shadowe ouer his head and deliuer him from his griefe. So Ionah was exceeding glad of the gourde.
Te vaengah Pathen BOEIPA loh tuikung a khueh pah tih Jonah soah a yam pah. A lu soah hlipkhup la a om pah dongah anih ham tah a yoethaenah khui lamloh huul uh. Te dongah Jonah tah tuikung dongah te kohoenah neh bahoeng a kohoe.
7 But God prepared a worme when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd, that it withered.
Tedae a vuen mincang a pha vaengah Pathen loh phol a khueh pah tih tuikung te a ngawn pah dongah a koh pah.
8 And when the sunne did arise, God prepared also a feruent East winde: and the sunne beat vpon the head of Ionah, that he fainted, and wished in his heart to die, and said, It is better for me to dye, then to liue.
Khomik a thoeng neh Pathen loh khothoeng yilh ling a paek. Te vaengah ah khomik loh Jonah lu te a do pah. Te dongah tawn coeng tih a hinglu te a duek ham ni a bih coeng. Te dongah, “Ka dueknah he ka hingnah lakah then,” a ti.
9 And God said vnto Ionah, Doest thou well to be angrie for the gourde? And he said, I doe well to be angrie vnto the death.
Tedae Pathen loh Jonah te, “Tuikung dongah na sai te thuem a?” a ti nah vaengah, “Dueknah hil ka sai tueng ta,” a ti nah.
10 Then said the Lord, Thou hast had pitie on the gourde for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it growe, which came vp in a night, and perished in a night,
Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Nang loh tuikung te na rhen. Te ham te na thakthae pawt tih na rhoeng sak moenih. Te te hlaem khat ca ah poe tih hlaem khat ca ah ni a milh.
11 And shoulde not I spare Nineueh that great citie, wherein are sixe score thousande persons, that cannot discerne betweene their right hand, and their left hand, and also much cattell?
Tedae kai loh Nineveh khopuei len ka rhen mahpawt nim? A khuiah a bantang laklo neh a banvoei laklo aka ming pawh hlang thawng ya pakul lakah a yet neh rhamsa khaw muep om ta,” a ti nah.
