Jonah 1

1 Now the word of YHWH came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,

Сля лав РАЕСТАР Ионасти, чявэ Амиттаёхкирэсти:

2 "Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and proclaim against it, for their wickedness has come up before me."

— Вщи, джя ды Ниневия, баро форо, тай роспхэн ды лэ, со дума пала врыти рындуря кадылэн манушэн доджиля ды ман.

3 But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of YHWH. He went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid its fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of YHWH.

Нэ Иона вщиля, соб тэ нашэ ды Таршыш РАЕСТАР, тай авиля ды Яффа, аракхля корабли, саво оджялас ды Таршыш, потинда, соб лэ тэ пролиджян, и заджиля ды лэ, соб тэ авэ РАЕСТАР ды Таршыш.

4 But YHWH sent out a great wind on the sea, and there was a mighty storm on the sea, so that the ship was likely to break up.

Нэ РАЙ бичялда пы море састо балвал. Тирдапэ баро гвалто, и кораблести трэбуни сля тэ розмарэпэ.

5 Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man to his god. They threw the cargo that was in the ship into the sea, to lighten it. But Jonah had gone down into the innermost parts of the ship, and he was laying down, and was fast asleep.

Матросуря здарэнэпэ тай ачиле тэ типисявэ кожно пэхкирэ дэвлэсти. Вонэ вычютэ всаворэ бужэ кораблестар ды пане, соб тэ авэл локхэдэр. Нэ Иона ды калэ смукляпэ андрэ, пыля тай састэс засута.

6 So the shipmaster came to him, and said to him, "What do you mean, sleeper? Arise, call on your God. Maybe your God will notice us, so that we won't perish."

Капитано кораблехкоро авиля лэстэ тай пхэнда лэсти: — Со ту совэх? Вщи, типисяв тирэ Дэвлэсти. Ко джянэл, Вов ушунэла амэн, тай амэ на хасяваґа.

7 They all said to each other, "Come, let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is on us." So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.

Матросуря пхэндэ екх екхэсти: — Джям, чюваґа жребиё, соб тэ уджянэ, пала ка кадыя грыжа авиля пы амэн. Вонэ чютэ жребиё, и жребиё выпыля пы Иона.

8 Then they asked him, "Tell us, please, for whose cause this evil is on us. What is your occupation? Where do you come from? What is your country? Of what people are you?"

Тунчи вонэ пхэндэ лэсти: — Пхэн амэнди, пала ка дорэсля амэн кадыя грыжа? Соґа ту залэхпэ? Катар ту джях? Тев тири пхув? Савэндар ту манушэндар?

9 He said to them, "I am a Hebrew, and I fear YHWH, the God of heaven, who has made the sea and the dry land."

Вов пхэнда лэнди: — Мэ евреё, даравпэ РАЕСТАР, Дэвлэ болыбнахкирэ, Саво стирда баро пани тай пхув.

10 Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said to him, "What is this that you have done?" For the men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of YHWH, because he had told them.

Тунчи Иона пхэнда лэнди, со вов нашэл РАЕСТАР. Кала мануша уджянгле пала када, вонэ фартэ пэрэдарэне тай пхэндэ лэсти: — Сости ту када тирдан?

11 Then said they to him, "What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us?" For the sea grew more and more stormy.

Море на пэрэачелас гвалтовать. Вонэ пхэндэ лэсти: — Со амэнди тэ тирэ туґа, тэ на гвалтует море?

12 He said to them, "Take me up, and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will be calm for you; for I know that because of me this great storm is on you."

Тунчи вов пхэнда лэнди: — Лэн ман и вычювэн ды море, тай море пэрэачела гвалтовать важ тумэнди. Мэ джянав, со кадыя бари грыжа доросля тумэн пала ман.

13 Nevertheless the men rowed hard to get them back to the land; but they could not, for the sea grew more and more stormy against them.

Нэ кала мануша ачиле фартыдэр тэ тирэ бути, соб тэ прыаче пхуятэ, лэндэ нисо на выджялас, колэсти со море на пэрэачелас гвалтовать.

14 Therefore they cried to YHWH, and said, "We beg you, YHWH, we beg you, let us not perish for this man's life, and do not lay on us innocent blood; for you, YHWH, have done as it pleased you."

Тунчи вонэ типисине РАЕСТИ тай пхэндэ: — Мангах Тут, РАЕ, тэ на хасявах пала води кадылэ манушэ, тай на прычувэґа амэнди навуджило рат. Ту, РАЕ, стирдан, со Ту камлян!

15 So they took up Jonah, and threw him into the sea; and the sea ceased its raging.

Вонэ лиле Иона тай вычютэ ды пане, тай пы море авиля пачя.

16 Then the men feared YHWH exceedingly; and they offered a sacrifice to YHWH, and made vows.

Матросуря фартэ пэрэдаранепэ РАЕСТАР, андэ Лэсти жэртва и дыне солах.

17 YHWH prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah, and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

РАЙ бичялда баро мачё, тай вой прозумавда Иона. Вов просля андрэ ды пэр мачестэ трин дивэ тай трин рятя.
