< Jonah 4 >
1 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.
Pathen in atohgon akhel chun Jonah alungnopmo sahlheh jengin hatah in alung hangin ahi.
2 He prayed to Yahweh, and said, “Please, Yahweh, wasn’t this what I said when I was still in my own country? Therefore I hurried to flee to Tarshish, for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and you relent of doing harm.
Hijeh chun aman Pathen henga alungnop mona aphongin Pakai in a ka kipat doh masanga kana sei hilou ham? Hiche jeh'a hi Tarshish lamma kache hilou ham, ijeh-inem itileh Pathen nangma hi lungset them, hepi them, lunghangvah lou, longlouva lungsetna nei jing Pathen thilsebol louva lunghei kit ji Pathen na hiti kahet jing sa nahi, ati.
3 Therefore now, Yahweh, take, I beg you, my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
Hijeh chun Pakai ka hinkho hi keija konin lamang tan, kei dingin hin sangin thi aphajo tai.
4 Yahweh said, “Is it right for you to be angry?”
Chujou chun Pakaiyin “Hitia na lunghang jengpi hi dih na kisah hinam atin ahi”.
5 Then Jonah went out of the city and sat on the east side of the city, and there made himself a booth and sat under it in the shade, until he might see what would become of the city.
Hijeh chun Jonah chu khopi a konin solam’a apotdohin lhambuh akisonin hiche limnoija chun atou in khopi chu epi hungsoh mong am tin atouvin ave tan ahi.
6 Yahweh God prepared a vine and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head to deliver him from his discomfort. So Jonah was exceedingly glad because of the vine.
Hichun Pakai Pathen in umphung khat akedoh sahin Jonah umna chu akhukhum sah in lim in ason peh tai, hitia hi bolphatna alung hesoh chu lungmonsah ding agon ahi. Hichun Jonah jong um-phungkhat in ajam khum chu akipah beseh jengin ahi.
7 But God prepared a worm at dawn the next day, and it chewed on the vine so that it withered.
Ahinlah ajing nikhoa kho ahungvah phat in Pathen in lung alhalut in umgui chu aneuvin ahileh um-phung chu anechaijun umphung jong chu agot lhahsah tai.
8 When the sun arose, God prepared a sultry east wind; and the sun beat on Jonah’s head, so that he was faint and requested for himself that he might die. He said, “It is better for me to die than to live.”
Nisa ahung so doh phat in Pathen in nisa aveven asat sah jing in, nisa chun Jonah lujang asal a ahileh amajong alhalhop jeng in athinom leo jeng in ahi. “Kei dingin hitia hin sangin thima apha joi” ati.
9 God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the vine?” He said, “I am right to be angry, even to death.”
Hichun Pathenn in Jonah jah’a, um-gui athia na lunghan jeng chu dih nakisah hinam? ati leh Jonah in adonbut nin “Heng’e thina changei ja lunghang ka hitai” ati.
10 Yahweh said, “You have been concerned for the vine, for which you have not labored, neither made it grow; which came up in a night and perished in a night.
Hichun Pakaiyin, “Nangin natu louhel hiche um-gui hi khan jong na khansah theilou jankah khatna mang thah kit ahi tai.
11 Shouldn’t I be concerned for Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred twenty thousand persons who can’t discern between their right hand and their left hand, and also many animals?”
Achutileh hiche Ninevah khopi lentah, akhosunga mihem sang jakhat le sang somni jen lhagao, muthim noija umnalai ho leh ganhing tamtah um hohi ka lainatpi lou ding ham?” ati.
