< Jonah 4 >
1 And it was displeasing to Jonah displeasure great and it burned to him.
Tedae thaehuet he Jonah taengah muep a thae pah tih amah khaw sai.
2 And he prayed to Yahweh and he said I beg you O Yahweh ¿ not [was] this word my until was I on own land my there-fore I did [the] first time to flee Tarshish towards that I knew that you [are] a God gracious and compassionate long of anger and great of covenant loyalty and [who] relents on evil.
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 And therefore O Yahweh take please life my from me for [is] good death my more than life my.
BOEIPA aw, kai lamkah ka hinglu te lo mai laeh. Ka dueknah he ka hingnah lakah then,” a ti.
4 And he said Yahweh ¿ rightly does it burn to you.
Tedae BOEIPA loh, “Nang taengah a sai te thuem a?” a ti nah.
5 And he went out Jonah from the city and he sat from east of the city and he made for himself there a shelter and he sat under it in the shade until that he will see what? will it be in the city.
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 he appointed Yahweh God a plant and it went up - over Jonah to be shade over head his to deliver him from distress his and he rejoiced Jonah on the plant a joy great.
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 And he appointed God a worm when came up the dawn to the next day and it attacked the plant and 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 it was - when arose the sun and he appointed God a wind an east wind hot and it struck the sun on [the] head of Jonah and he became faint and he asked life his to die and he said [is] good death my more than life my.
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 he said God to Jonah ¿ rightly does it burn to you on the plant and he said rightly it burns to me to 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 And he said Yahweh you you had compassion on the plant which not you had toiled in it and not you had made grow it that a son of a night it was and a son of a night it perished.
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 I not will I have compassion? on Nineveh the city great which there in it [are] many more than two [plus] ten ten thousand person[s] who not he distinguishes between right [hand] his and left his and livestock much.
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.
