Jonah 1
1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jonah [the] son of Amittai saying.
Riječ Jahvina dođe Joni, sinu Amitajevu:
2 Arise go to Nineveh the city great and call out on it for it has come up wickedness their before me.
“Ustani,” reče mu, “idi u Ninivu, grad veliki, i propovijedaj u njemu, jer se zloća njihova popela do mene.”
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.
A Jona ustade da pobjegne u Taršiš, daleko od Jahve. Siđe u Jafu i nađe lađu što je plovila u Taršiš. Plati vozarinu i ukrca se da otplovi s njima u Taršiš, daleko od Jahve.
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.
Ali Jahve podiže na moru silan vjetar i nastade nevrijeme veliko na moru te mišljahu da će se lađa razbiti.
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.
Uplašiše se mornari; svaki zazva svoga boga, i da bi je olakšali, stadoše iz lađe bacati tovar što bijaše u njoj. Jona pak bijaše sišao na dno lađe, legao i zaspao tvrdim snom.
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.
Zapovjednik lađe pristupi mu i reče: “Što spavaš kao zaklan? Ustaj i prizivlji Boga svojega! Možda će nas se sjetiti Bog taj da ne poginemo.”
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.
Potom rekoše jedni drugima: “Hajde da bacimo ždrijeb da vidimo od koga nam dođe ovo zlo.” Baciše ždrijeb i pade ždrijeb na Jonu.
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.
Oni mu onda rekoše: “Kaži nam: zbog koga nas ovo zlo snađe, kojim se poslom baviš, odakle dolaziš, iz koje si zemlje i od kojega naroda?”
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.
On im odgovori: “Ja sam Hebrej, i štujem Jahvu, Boga nebeskoga, koji stvori more i zemlju.”
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.
Ljudi se uplašiše veoma i rekoše mu: “Što si to učinio!” Jer bijahu doznali da on bježi od Jahve - sam im je to pripovjedio.
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.
Oni ga zapitaše: “Što da učinimo s tobom da nam se more smiri?” Jer se more sve bješnje dizalo.
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.
On im odgovori: “Uzmite me i bacite u more, pa će vam se more smiriti, jer znam da se zbog mene diglo na vas ovo veliko nevrijeme.”
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.
Ljudi uzeše veslati ne bi li se primakli kopnu, jer se more sve bješnje dizalo protiv njih.
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.
Tad zazvaše Jahvu i rekoše: “Ah, Jahve, ne daj da poginemo zbog života ovoga čovjeka i ne svali na nas krv nevinu, jer ti si Jahve: činiš kako ti je milo.”
15 And they picked up Jonah and they threw him into the sea and it stopped the sea from storming its.
I uzevši Jonu, baciše ga u more - i more presta bjesnjeti.
16 And they feared the men a fear great Yahweh and they sacrificed a sacrifice to Yahweh and they vowed vows.
Tada velik strah Jahvin obuze ljude te prinesoše žrtvu Jahvi i učiniše zavjete.
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.
Jahve zapovjedi velikoj ribi da proguta Jonu. Tri dana i tri noći ostade Jona u ribljoj utrobi.
