Jonah 4
1 And it is grievous to Jonah—a great evil—and he is displeased at it;
Ngem kasla saan nga umno daytoy kenni Jonas, ket kasta unay ti ungetna.
2 and he prays to YHWH, and he says, “Ah, now, O YHWH, is this not my word while I was in my own land—therefore I was beforehand [going] to flee to Tarshish—that I have known that You [are] a God, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in kindness, and relenting of evil?
Isu a nagkararag kenni Yahweh ket kinunana, “Ah, Yahweh, saan kadi a daytoy ti kas imbagak kenka idi addaak iti bukodko a pagilian? Isu't gapuna a nagtignayak nga immuna ket pinadasko ti immadayo a napan idiay Tarsis—gapu ta ammok a naparaburka a Dios, manangngaasi, saan a nalaka a makaunget, napnoan ti kinapudno ket baliwam ti pangngeddengmo a mangibaon iti didigra.
3 And now, O YHWH, please take my soul from me, for better [is] my death than my life.”
Ita ngarud, Yahweh, agpakpakaasiak kenka, alaemon ti biagko, ta nasaysayaat a matayak ngem ti agbiag.”
4 And YHWH says, “Is doing good displeasing to you?”
Kinuna ni Yahweh, “Nasayaat kadi a makaungetka?”
5 And Jonah goes forth from the city, and sits on the east of the city, and makes a shelter for himself there, and sits under it in the shade, until he sees what is in the city.
Ket rimmuar ni Jonas iti siudad ken nagtugaw iti akindaya a paset daytoy. Nangaramid isuna iti paglinongan sadiay ket nagtugaw iti sirok daytoy tapno makitana ti mabalin a mapasamak iti siudad.
6 And YHWH God appoints a gourd, and causes it to come up over Jonah, to be a shade over his head, to give deliverance to him from his affliction, and Jonah rejoices because of the gourd [with] great joy.
Nangisagana ni Yahweh a Dios iti mula ket pinadakkelna daytoy a dimmanon iti ngatoen ni Jonas tapno malinongan ti ulona ket mabang-aran. Naragsakan unay ni Jonas gapu iti mula.
7 And God appoints a worm at the going up of the dawn on the next day, and it strikes the gourd, and it dries up.
Ngem nangisagana ti Dios iti igges idi sumingising ti init iti kabigatanna. Kinibkibanna ti mula ket nalaylay.
8 And it comes to pass, about the rising of the sun, that God appoints a cutting east wind, and the sun strikes on the head of Jonah, and he wraps himself up, and asks for his soul to die, and says, “Better [is] my death than my life.”
Ket napasamak, idi simmingising ti init iti kabigatanna, nangisagana ti Dios iti napudot nga angin manipud iti daya. Kasta met a nainitan ti ulo ni Jonas ket kimmapsut. Ket tinarigagayan ni Jonas a matay isunan. Kinunana iti bagina, “Nasaysayaat a matayak ngem ti agbiag.”
9 And God says to Jonah: “Is doing good displeasing to you, because of the gourd?” And he says, “To do good is displeasing to me—to death.”
Ket kinuna ti Dios kenni Jonas, “Nasayaat kadi a makaungetka maipanggep iti mula?” Ket kinuna ni Jonas, “Nasayaat a makaungetak, uray pakatayak.”
10 And YHWH says, “You have had pity on the gourd, for which you did not labor, neither did you nourish it, which came up [as] a son of night, and perished [as] a son of night,
Kinuna ni Yahweh, “Maasianka iti mula, a saanmo a nagbannogan wenno pinadakkel. Nagtubo daytoy iti rabii ken natay iti sumaruno a rabii.
11 and I—do I not have pity on Nineveh, the great city, in which there are more than one hundred twenty thousand of mankind, who have not known between their right hand and their left—and much livestock?”
Isu a para kaniak, saan kadi a rumbeng a kaasiak ti Nineve, ti dakkel a siudad, nga addaan iti nasurok a sangagasut ket duapulo a ribu a tattao a saan a makaammo iti nagdumaan ti kannawan ken kannigid nga imada, ken kasta met dagiti adu a tarakenda?”
