Jonah 1

1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jonah [the] son of Amittai saying.

E veio a palavra do SENHOR a Jonas, filho de Amitai, dizendo:

2 Arise go to Nineveh the city great and call out on it for it has come up wickedness their before me.

Levanta-te, vai à grande cidade de Nínive, e prega contra ela; porque sua maldade subiu diante de mim.

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.

Porém Jonas se levantou para fugir da presença do SENHOR a Társis, e desceu a Jope; e achou um navio que partia para Társis. Então pagou sua passagem e entrou nele, para ir com eles a Társis [a fim de se distanciar] do SENHOR.

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.

Mas o SENHOR fez levantar um grande vento no mar; e fez-se uma tempestade tão grande no mar, que o navio estava a ponto de se quebrar.

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.

Então os marinheiros tiveram medo, e cada um clamava a seu deus; e lançaram no mar os objetos que havia no navio, para com eles diminuir o peso. Jonas, porém, havia descido ao interior do navio, e se pôs a dormir profundamente.

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.

E o capitão do navio se aproximou dele, e lhe disse: Que há contigo, dorminhoco? Levanta-te, e clama a teu deus; talvez ele se lembre de nós, para que não pereçamos.

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.

E disseram cada um a seu companheiro: Vinde, e lancemos sortes, para sabermos por causa de quem este mal [veio] sobre nós. Então lançaram sortes, e a sorte caiu sobre Jonas.

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.

Então eles lhe disseram: Conta-nos, por favor, por que nos este mal nos [veio]. Qual é a tua profissão, e de onde vens? Qual é a tua terra, e de que povo és?

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.

E ele lhes respondeu: Sou hebreu, e temo ao SENHOR, o Deus dos céu, que fez o mar e a terra.

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.

Então aqueles homens tiveram um grande medo, e lhe disseram: Por que fizeste isto? Pois aqueles homens sabiam que ele estava fugindo do SENHOR, porque ele já havia lhes dito.

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.

Então lhe disseram: O que faremos contigo, para que o mar se nos aquiete? Porque o mar cada vez mais se embravecia.

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.

E ele lhes respondeu: Tomai-me, e lançai-me ao mar, e o mar se vos aquietará; porque eu sei que foi por minha causa que esta grande tempestade [veio] sobre vós.

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.

Mas os homens se esforçavam para remar, tentando voltar à terra firme; porém não conseguiam, porque o mar cada vez mais se embravecia sobre eles.

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.

Então clamaram ao SENHOR, e disseram: Ó SENHOR, nós te pedimos para não perecermos por causa da alma deste homem, nem ponhas sangue inocente sobre nós; porque, tu, SENHOR, fizeste como te agradou.

15 And they picked up Jonah and they threw him into the sea and it stopped the sea from storming its.

Então tomaram a Jonas, e o lançaram ao mar; e o mar se aquietou de seu furor.

16 And they feared the men a fear great Yahweh and they sacrificed a sacrifice to Yahweh and they vowed vows.

Por isso aqueles homens temeram ao SENHOR [com] grande temor; e ofereceram sacrifício ao SENHOR, e prometeram votos.

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.

Mas o SENHOR havia preparado um grande peixe para que tragasse a Jonas; e Jonas esteve três dias e três noites no ventre do peixe.
