Jonah 1
1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jonah [the] son of Amittai saying.
Ary tonga tamin’ i Jona, zanak’ i Amitahy, ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
2 Arise go to Nineveh the city great and call out on it for it has come up wickedness their before me.
Mitsangàna, mankanesa any Ninive, ilay tanàna lehibe, ary miantsoa ny amin’ ny hamelezana azy, fa tafakatra eto anatrehako ny faharatsiany.
3 And he arose Jonah to flee Tarshish towards from to before Yahweh and he went down Joppa and he found a ship - [which was] about to go Tarshish and he gave fare its and he went down in it to go with them Tarshish towards from to before Yahweh.
Nefa Jona nitsangana handositra ho any Tarsisy mba hiala eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah; ary nidina tany Jopa izy ka nahita sambo hankany Tarsisy, dia nandoa ny karamany ka niondrana taminy hiara-mandeha tamin’ ny tao ho any Tarsisy hiala eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah.
4 And Yahweh he threw a wind great to the sea and it was a storm great on the sea and the ship it thought to be broken.
Fa Jehovah nahatonga rivotra mahery teny ambonin’ ny ranomasina, dia nanonja mafy ny ranomasina, ka dia efa nila ho vaky ny sambo.
5 And they were afraid the sailors and they cried for help everyone to gods his and they threw the vessels which [were] in the ship into the sea to lighten from on them and Jonah he had gone down into [the] innermost parts of the ship and he had lain down and he had fallen fast asleep.
Dia raiki-tahotra ny matilo, ka samy nitaraina tamin’ ny andriamaniny avy sady nariany tany anaty ranomasina ny zavatra tao an-tsambo mba hampahatony ny loza. Fa Jona kosa efa nidina nankao anaty sambo ka nandry renoky ny torimaso.
6 And he drew near to him [the] chief of the sailor[s] and he said to him what? [is] to you sleeping arise call to god your perhaps he will give thought the god to us and not we will perish.
Dia nankao aminy ny kapitenin-tsambo ka nanao taminy hoe: Endrey ity ianao renoky ny torimaso foana eto! Mitsangàna, ka antsoy ny Andriamanitrao, fa angamba hihevitra antsika Andriamanitra, ka dia tsy ho faty isika.
7 And they said each to neighbor his come so let us cast lots so we may know by which of whom? the evil this [belongs] to us and they cast lots and it fell the lot on Jonah.
Ary dia samy nanao tamin’ ny namany hoe izy: Avia isika hanao filokana mba hizahantsika izay mahatonga izao loza izao amintsika. Dia nanao filokana izy, ka Jona no azo.
8 And they said to him tell! please to us because of whom? the evil this [belongs] to us what? [is] occupation your and from where? do you come what? [is] land your and where? from this people [are] you.
Dia hoy ireo taminy: Masìna ianao, lazao aminay: Noho ny amin’ iza moa no mahatonga izao loza izao amintsika? Inona no raharaha fanaonao? Ary avy taiza ianao? Aiza no taninao? Ary avy amin’ ny firenen’ iza ianao?
9 And he said to them [am] a Hebrew I and Yahweh [the] God of the heavens I [am] fearing who he made the sea and the dry land.
Dia hoy izy tamin’ ireo: Hebreo aho; ary Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny lanitra, no ivavahako, dia Izay nanao ny ranomasina sy ny tany maina.
10 And they feared the men a fear great and they said to him what? this have you done for they knew the men that from to before Yahweh he [was] fleeing for he had told to them.
Dia raiki-tahotra indrindra ny olona ka nanao taminy hoe: Adray izato ataonao izato! Fa fantany fa nandositra hiala eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izy, satria efa nambarany taminy izany.
11 And they said to him what? will we do to you so it may be calm the sea from on us for the sea [was] going and storming.
Dia hoy ireo taminy: Hataonay ahoana ary ianao mba hahatony ny ranomasina aminay? Fa mbola nihananonja ihany ny ranomasina.
12 And he said to them pick up me and throw me into the sea so it may be calm the sea from on you for [am] knowing I that by which to me the storm great this [is] on you.
Ary hoy izy tamin’ ireo: Betao aho, ka atsipazo any anatin’ ny ranomasina hahatony ny ranomasina aminareo; fa fantatro fa noho ny amiko no mahatonga izao onja mahery izao aminareo.
13 And they rowed the men to return to the dry land and not they were able for the sea [was] going and storming on them.
Nefa namaky onja fatratra ny olona mba hamerina ny sambo ho amin’ ny tany maina, fa tsy zakany, satria ny ranomasina mbola nihananonja mafy taminy.
14 And they called out to Yahweh and they said we beg you O Yahweh do not please let us perish by [the] life of the man this and may not you put on us blood innocent for you O Yahweh just as you pleased you have done.
Dia nitaraina tamin’ i Jehovah izy ka nanao hoe: Mifona aminao izahay, Jehovah ô, aoka tsy ho faty izahay noho ny amin’ ny ain’ ity lehilahy ity ary aza atao ho mpandatsaka rà marina izahay; fa Hianao, Jehovah ô, efa nanao izay sitraky ny fonao.
15 And they picked up Jonah and they threw him into the sea and it stopped the sea from storming its.
Dia nobetain’ izy ireo Jona ka natsipiny tany anatin’ ny ranomasina; ary dia nitsahatra ny fisafoaky ny ranomasina.
16 And they feared the men a fear great Yahweh and they sacrificed a sacrifice to Yahweh and they vowed vows.
Dia natahotra an’ i Jehovah indrindra ireo olona ireo ka namono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah sady nivoady.
17 And he appointed Yahweh a fish great to swallow Jonah and he was Jonah in [the] inward parts of the fish three days and three nights.
Ary Jehovah nanomana hazandrano lehibe hitelina an’ i Jona. Ary Jona dia tao an-kibon’ ilay hazandrano hateloan’ andro sy hateloan’ alina.
