< Jonah 3 >

1 And the word of the Lord was maad the secounde tyme to Jonas, and seide, Rise thou,
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee yeroo lammaffaa gara Yoonaas dhufe:
2 and go in to Nynyue, the greet citee, and preche thou in it the prechyng which Y speke to thee.
“Gara Nanawwee magaalaa guddittii sanaa dhaqiitii ergaa ani sitti himu kana itti lallabi.”
3 And Jonas roos, and wente in to Nynyue, bi the word of the Lord. And Nynyue was a greet citee, of the iurnei of thre daies.
Yoonaasis dubbii Waaqayyootiif ajajamee Nanawwee dhaqe. Yeroo sanatti Nanawween magaalaa akka malee guddoo turte; keessa baʼanii darbuufis guyyaa sadii fudhata ture.
4 And Jonas bigan for to entre in to the citee, bi the iornei of o dai, and criede, and seide, Yit fourti daies, and Nynyue schal be `turned vpsodoun.
Yoonaas imala guyyaa tokkoo deemuudhaan magaalattiitti gale. Akkana jedhees lallabe: “Nanawween guyyaa afurtama keessatti ni garagalfamti.”
5 And men of Nynyue bileueden to the Lord, and prechiden fastyng, and weren clothid with sackis, fro the more `til to the lesse.
Warri Nanawwees Waaqatti amanan. Soomas labsanii hundi isaanii xinnaa fi guddaan uffata gaddaa uffatan.
6 And the word cam til to the kyng of Nynyue; and he roos of his seete, and castide awei his clothing fro him, and was clothid with a sak, and sat in aische.
Yommuu oduun kun mooticha Nanawwee gaʼetti inni teessoo isaa irraa kaʼee uffata mootii of irraa baase; wayyaa gaddaas uffatee daaraa keessa taaʼe.
7 And he criede, and seide in Nynyue of the mouth of the kyng and of `his princis, `and seide, Men, and werk beestis, and oxun, and scheep taaste not ony thing, nether be fed, nether drynke watir.
Ergasii akkana jedhee Nanawwee keessatti labsii labse: “Ajajni mootichaatii fi qondaaltota isaa kanaa dha: Akka namni yookaan horiin tokko iyyuu, karri loonii yookaan bushaayeen waan tokko iyyuu afaaniin qabu hin eeyyaminaa; akka isaan waa nyaatan yookaan dhugan hin eeyyaminaa.
8 And men be hilid with sackis, and werk beestis crie to the Lord in strengthe; `and be a man conuertid fro his yuel weie, and fro wickidnesse that is in the hondis of hem.
Garuu namnis, horiinis wayyaa gaddaa haa uffatan. Namni hundinuu dafee Waaqa isaa haa waammatu. Isaan karaa isaanii hamaa sanaa fi yakka harki isaanii hojjetu irraa haa deebiʼan.
9 Who woot, if God be conuertid, and foryyue, and be turned ayen fro woodnesse of his wraththe, and we schulen not perische?
Maaltu beeka? Tarii Waaqni gaabbee garaa nuu laafee dheekkamsa isaa sodaachisaa sana nurraa deebisee, nuus badii oolla taʼaatii.”
10 And God sai the werkis of hem, that thei weren conuertid fro her yuel weie; and God hadde merci on the malice which he spac, that he schulde do to hem, and did not.
Waaqnis akka isaan waan hamaa irraa deebiʼan hojii isaanii arge; Waaqnis garaa laafeefii balaa isaanitti erguuf yaade sana isaanitti fiduu dhiise.
