< Jonah 1 >

1 Now the word of Yahweh came to Jonah son of Amittai, saying,
Haddaba waxaa Yoonis ina Amitay u yimid Eraygii Rabbiga oo sidan ku leh,
2 “Get up and go to Nineveh, that great city, and speak out against it, because their wickedness has risen up before me.”
Kac, oo waxaad tagtaa magaaladaas weyn oo Nineweh, oo iyada ku qayli, waayo, sharkoodii wuxuu yimid hortayda.
3 But Jonah got up to run away from the presence of Yahweh and go to Tarshish. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish. So he paid the fare and boarded the ship to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of Yahweh.
Laakiinse Yoonis wuxuu u kacay inuu Rabbiga hortiisa ka cararo oo xagga Tarshiish u baxsado. Markaasuu Yaafaa u dhaadhacay oo wuxuu halkaas ka helay doonni Tarshiish tegaysa. Sidaas daraaddeed lacagtii nooliguu bixiyey, kolkaasuu gudaha galay, waayo, wuxuu doonayay inuu iyaga Tarshiish u raaco oo uu ka cararo Rabbiga hortiisa.
4 But Yahweh sent out a great wind on the sea and it became a mighty storm on the sea. Soon it appeared that the ship was going to be broken up.
Laakiinse Rabbigu wuxuu baddii ku soo daayay dabayl weyn, kolkaasaa waxaa baddii ka dhex kacay duufaan xoog leh, doonnidiina waxay ku dhowaatay inay burburto.
5 Then the sailors became very afraid and each man cried out to his own god. They threw the ship's cargo into the sea to lighten it. But Jonah had gone down into the innermost parts of the ship, and he was lying there deeply asleep.
Markaasay raggii baxriyiinta ahaa aad u baqeen, oo mid waluba wuxuu u qayshaday ilaahiisii. Alaabtii doonnida ku jirtayna badday ku dhex tuureen, si ay doonnidu iyaga ugu fududaato. Laakiinse wuxuu Yoonis mar hore u dhaadhacay doonnida meesha ugu hoosaysa, oo halkaasuu seexday, wuxuuna ku jiray hurdo weyn.
6 So the captain came to him and said to him, “What are you doing sleeping? Get up! Call upon your god! Maybe your god will notice us and we will not perish.”
Haddaba waxaa isagii u yimid naakhudihii doonnida, oo ku yidhi, Hurdahayow, maxaad u jeeddaa? Kac oo Ilaahaaga u qayli, waaba intaasoo uu inaga fikiraa inaannan halligmine.
7 They all said to each other, “Come, let us cast lots, so that we may know who is the cause of this evil that is happening to us.” So they threw lots, and the lot fell to Jonah.
Oo wuxuu midba midkii kale ku yidhi, Kaalaya aynu saami ridannee si aan u ogaanno kan aawadiis belaayadanu inoogu dhacday. Sidaas daraaddeed saami bay riteen, oo saamigiina wuxuu ku dhacay Yoonis.
8 Then they said to Jonah, “Please tell us who is the cause of this evil that is happening to us. What is your occupation, and where did you come from? What is your country, and from which people are you?”
Markaasay waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Waannu ku baryaynaaye noo sheeg kan aawadiis belaayadanu inoogu dhacday. Waa maxay shuqulkaagu? Oo xaggee baad ka timid? Waddankaagu waa kee? Dadkaaguna waa ayo?
9 Jonah said to them, “I am a Hebrew; and I fear Yahweh, the God of heaven, who has made the sea and the dry land.”
Oo isna wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Waxaan ahay Cibraani, oo waxaan ka cabsadaa Rabbiga ah Ilaaha samada, oo ah Kan abuuray badda iyo berrigaba.
10 Then the men were even more afraid and said to Jonah, “What is this that you have done?” For the men knew that he was running away from the presence of Yahweh, because he had told them.
Markaasay nimankii aad iyo aad u cabsadeen, oo ku yidhaahdeen, Waa maxay waxa aad samaysay? Waayo, waxay ogaadeen inuu Rabbiga hortiisa ka soo cararay, maxaa yeelay, isagaa u sheegay.
11 Then they said to Jonah, “What should we do to you so that the sea will calm down for us?” For the sea became more and more violent.
Markaasay ku yidhaahdeen, Si baddu noogu degto aawadeed haddaba bal maxaannu kugu samaynaa? Waayo, badda duufaankeedii aad iyo aad buu u sii weynaaday.
12 Jonah said to them, “Pick me up and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will be calm for you, for I know that it is because of me that this great storm is happening to you.”
Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Kor ii qaada oo badda igu dhex tuura, sidaasay baddu idiinku degi doontaaye, waayo, waxaan ogahay in duufaankan weynu daraadday idiinku soo kacay.
13 Nevertheless, the men rowed hard to get them back to the land, but they could not do it because the sea was becoming more and more violent against them.
Habase yeeshee nimankii aad bay seeb doonnidii ugu wadeen oo ugu dadaaleen inay xeebtii ku soo noqdaan, laakiinse way kari waayeen, maxaa yeelay, badda duufaankeedii oo ka gees ahaa aad iyo aad buu u sii weynaaday.
14 Therefore they cried out to Yahweh and said, “We beg you, Yahweh, we beg you, do not let us perish on account of this man's life, and do not lay upon us the guilt of his death, because you, Yahweh, have done just as it pleased you.”
Markaasay Rabbiga u qayshadeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Rabbiyow, waannu ku baryaynaa, oo waannu ku baryaynaaye, yaannan u halligmin nolosha ninkan aawadeed, oo annaga ha na saarin dhiig aan xaq qabin, waayo, Rabbiyow, waxaad samaysay sidii aad ku faraxday.
15 So they picked up Jonah and threw him into the sea, and the sea stopped raging.
Sidaas daraaddeed Yoonis bay kor u qaadeen oo waxay ku dhex tuureen baddii, kolkaasay baddii joojisay cadhadeedii.
16 Then the men feared Yahweh very much. They offered sacrifices to Yahweh and made vows.
Markaasay nimankii aad iyo aad Rabbiga uga cabsadeen, oo waxay Rabbiga u bixiyeen allabari, nidarrona way galeen.
17 Now Yahweh had prepared a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the stomach of the fish three days and three nights.
Oo Rabbigu wuxuu Yoonis u diyaariyey kalluun weyn oo isaga liqa; Yoonisna wuxuu kalluunka calooshiisii ku dhex jiray saddex habeen iyo saddex maalmood.
